Vivaldi

Vivaldi is a unique web browser developed in Norway by Vivaldi Technologies, a company founded by Jon von Tetzchner, the co-founder and former CEO of Opera Software. Unlike minimal browsers that hide functionality, Vivaldi embraces the idea that users should be able to tweak every single pixel of their interface. It is built on the Chromium engine, ensuring compatibility with the vast library of Chrome extensions, but its true power lies in its native features. One of Vivaldi’s standout capabilities is Tab Stacking and Tiling. You can group tabs together into stacks to declutter your bar, and then view those stacked tabs simultaneously in a split-screen view—perfect for comparing documents or watching a video while working. The browser also includes a built-in sidebar panel for quick access to chat apps, notes, and browsing history without leaving your current page. Privacy is a core pillar of Vivaldi. It includes an integrated Tracker and Ad Blocker that requires no setup, protecting you from intrusive data collection. Furthermore, Vivaldi does not track your behavior or sell your data. For those looking to distance themselves from Big Tech ecosystems, Vivaldi even integrates a full-fledged Email client, Calendar, and Feed Reader directly into the browser, allowing you to manage your digital life from a single dashboard.
