2026-10-14T21:13:39Z

Vivaldi continues to grow steadily, as more people get to know us and the values we stand for. Our users are fed up with AI being shoved down their throat on every product, and they're fed up with the way the big corporations have been (mis)treating us all for decades.

We love building an alternative for all of you, because we truly believe you deserve better. But we wouldn't be here without your support, so if you're using Vivaldi: thank you!

We're now officially 4.5 million people. 🎉 Wouldn't it be amazing if we could make it to 5M before 2026 is over? 🙏

2026-10-08T14:49:43Z

Some of you have been asking whether or not Vivaldi is affected by Chrome’s #AI API, which some websites are using for tracking purposes. The answer is straight-forward: no. ✌️

As part of our philosophy to reject built-in AI features, we've been disabling all the Gemini-related code bundled in Chromium for a long while — which effectively prevents websites from using this API in Vivaldi.

2026-10-01T21:59:25Z

Many in our team have been in the browser industry for decades. Creating a decent alternative to the mainstream browsers is what we do best, but how can we compete against the giants when the conditions aren't fair?

When huge corporations have been filling the tech space and abusing their power and influence for decades, how do we ensure that users choose products by merit, and not by market power?

These and other questions are what Bruce Lawson ✅ ♫ ♿ ✌️♂️✊ (npub1duh…4el7) discusses with the Little Tech Association in our latest podcast episode, available now on our website or your preferred podcast platform.👇

2026-09-28T20:47:17Z

Three years ago, we reached another milestone by launching our browser for iOS, but getting there was no bed of roses.

Did you know that, as of today, browser vendors are still forced to use the WebKit engine if they want to distribute their product on Apple devices?

Sure, regulatory efforts have brought changes to the European and Japanese markets, but the rest of the world is still very much in shackles.

Things aren't easy when you're competing against Big Tech, but we promise to keep fighting for a more diverse tech environment where users are allowed to choose what's best for them. There's no other way. ✊

2026-07-06T13:23:24Z

In case you haven't heard yet, the European Court of Justice dismissed Google's appeal last week, which means that even if they tried to get away with it, they'll have to pay the €4.1 billion imposed by the European Commission in 2018. The lawsuit focused on Google abusing its dominance by requiring distributors of Android devices to bundle Google Search and Google Chrome.

This is why we don't stop at building a decent browser, but also go the extra mile and get involved in regulatory work. Having real choices it's crucial for a healthy market.

At Vivaldi, we have this saying: "when in doubt, make it a setting". We believe in user choice and we think nobody but you knows what's best for you.

But choice paralysis is a real thing too, which is why we've introduced layout presets that will make your life easier. With just a few clicks, you can compare different combinations of how your browser could look and feel, try them out, and choose the one that feels right for you.

And if none of the available presets is perfect for you...you're always welcome to create your own. 🤗

this does not look like the standard zen theme, I guess you changed the background image? I cannot reproduce here, so you can either tweak it a bit (place the address bar up and then down again, change the theme, etc) to see if things change, or export this theme and send it to us so we can take a look at it.

We've just put out a fix for a performance issue some people were experiencing after updating to 8.0 yesterday. If that's you, please, do update and let us know if you're still encountering any problems.

PS. Have a nice weekend!

ブラウザのタブ、ツールバー、パネル、コンテンツの要素の境界がとろけるように馴染んだ、没入感あるUIに生まれ変わりました。
なんていうか、使ってて気持ちいい佇まいです。ぜひ触ってみてほしいです。

2026-05-20T19:35:27Z

It's not a secret that Google isn't the apple of our eye (there's a reason why we don't make any money from search deals with them) but yesterday's announcement about the changes coming to Google Search are plain depressing for the web as we know it. What started as a joke (the famous "It's not AI" video with Jon S. von Tetzchner (npub1e35…d5me)), is starting to feel dystopian at this point.

Anyway. Swimming against the current is exhausting, but the fight for a better web is more important than ever. And as long as there’s people willing to take the fight, there’s hope. 🔥 So we'll keep resisting: no opt-in, no opt-out, no nonsense. ✊

2026-05-12T13:28:46Z

Over the weekend we hosted a “dugnad” together with our friends at Hudd (a Norwegian social network) and Proton (npub19kd…t56d). A dugnad is a Norwegian gem of a word meaning communal work. As in "this job is too big for one person, but if we all pitch in, it won’t be so bad".

The Digital Dugnad is about helping each other switch away from Big Tech and dumping them in the trash. We are honored and overwhelmed by the response! Huge thank you to all of the volunteers who hosted dugnads all over Norway from north (almost close to the North Pole!) to south. T

To get started on your journey away from Big Tech, you can go to https://digitaldugnad.eu (if you can read Norwegian, that is 😉). Should we scale this up to other countries?

Follower Tab has been with us for a couple of months, and as it's often the case, we can't imagine life without this feature 😍 Super handy for:

- Evaluating alternative options while shopping
- Keeping your research tidy without being dragged down the rabbit hole

If you haven't started using this yet, this video is for you!

By now you've all probably heard about the latest shenanigans from Google and their love for in-browser AI features (we'll link the article below for those who don't know about it).

Our team has been inspecting the Chromium code and disabling stuff from the very first version of Vivaldi (we have some posts about this in our blog, such as https://vivaldi.com/blog/news/alert-no-google-topics-in-vivaldi/ or https://vivaldi.com/blog/no-google-vivaldi-users-will-not-get-floced/).

We've also been very outspoken about our dislike of the built-in AI trend in the browser industry, but in case there's still any doubts: yes, we disable all Gemini-related features, and we've been doing it for a while.

You might have seen us mention Desktop Mode on Android here and there. We're really excited about it, and we want you to be too! The possibilities are endless, imagine connecting your phone to a screen, keyboard and mouse and being able to use it as a proper desktop computer? 🤯

Give a warm welcome to Oskar Sofie Hope-Paulsrud 🏳️‍🌈 (npub1m99…j95g), the newest member of our team, who's taken up the challenge of walking you through the potential that this new functionality entails for a Vivaldi user - including a short interview to get Jon S. von Tetzchner (npub1e35…d5me) 's insight. Buckle up, big things are coming!

Today we launched Tabs As A Service...but only on LinkedIn 😄

Why? Because it's April 1st and this was the dumbest new vertical we could think of.

We would never charge nor judge you for any number of tabs you have open or how many tab management features you use.

To any PE or VC fund feeling like this was supposed to be your golden ticket to ascend into tech-heaven. Sorry, not sorry.

To you who thought it seemed fair to charge for TaaS, get it for free by clicking the link in the comments.

To our community and friends, we love you, and we love tabs. ❤️

We're pleased to confirm that TaaS is free forever!

After last week's update, you can now enjoy a Daily Image option for your Start Page on both iOS and Android ✨

A nice little detail for those of us who get easily bored!

To enable it, go to Settings > Start Page > Wallpaper and select “Use Daily Image”, or tap on “Customize” at the bottom of the Start Page and enable “Use Daily Image”.
