Vivaldi 8.3 is bad news for bad ads. A rebuilt Ad and Tracker Blocker puts you in charge of what gets through, one site at a time, and vertical tabs get even better.

All the best for the weeks to come! May you grow stronger and more ruthless when it comes to ads and trackers!

Thank you for the update. I really love Vivaldi.
I'd like to point out that on Fedora 45 it looks like the vivaldi repos are not being properly added, so I'm not getting updates unless I install the new rpm manually.

There used to be a web page about manually setting up the repo but you guys removed the instructions 😞

@jon
Do you use your browser yourself? How do you tell active text from inactive text? You need to look through a magnifying glass.

The interface and animation are still clunky. I’ve reported many bugs, but they’re not fixing anything.

Sincere thanks. Much to explore and enjoy and I've already noticed a couple of unlisted niggles removed in Mail & Feeds.
