✉️ Mail: manage multiple inboxes in one place, fully private and searchable.
📆 Calendar: a flexible and deeply integrated way to manage your events.
✅ Tasks: turn any plan into a task with one click and keep track easily by just checking the Tasks panel
🗞️ Feed Reader: Follow YouTubers without a Google account or even having to visit YouTube’s website. Get the latest from your favourite news outlets, podcasts and other RSS feeds. All curated by you, not an algorithm.

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.

It's been three days since June ended...so if you're missing a little bit of rainbow in your life, here's a trick:
1. Go to Settings
2. Write "biscuit" in the search field
3. Enable the checkbox that says "enable rainbow mode"
...et voilà! You'll now have a rainbow browser load bar 🌈

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. 🤗

In June, we always do company workshops where each team has to present to the rest. I'm just listening to the mobile one, and here's a couple of ways you can support us:
1) this is pretty obvious, but using our mobile browser (if you're not using it now, may I ask why?)
2) use our test build (Snapshot) so we can polish things before the releases
3) if you speak a different language from English, volunteer as a translator
thank you! ❤️

Thanks for confirming the fix.
If no other issues our found in relation to this fix, it'll go out with the next Stable release. Which is unfortunately weeks away since we just had one not too long ago.

Following the system one. Here's the fixed bug's ticket info - [Linux][Themes][Settings] “Settings → Themes → Theme Schedule → Operating System” does not work (VB-98462).
If you're up to installing the Snapshot and checking yourself, we'd appreciate it if you could confirm that it has been fixed for you as well.

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.

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 @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. ✊

Over the weekend we hosted a “dugnad” together with our friends at Hudd (a Norwegian social network) and @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 @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 @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!

Big Tech is at it again.
Some of you might have seen this already. Google has announced a new policy for Android app developers, which would require them to seek Google’s permission if they want to distribute their apps outside of the Google Play Store (on their own website or on alternative app stores). This would entail:
1) agreeing to their terms and conditions
2) paying a fee
3) uploading a government ID
Which is wrong on so many levels. Nobody should be forced to register with Google if they don’t want to use their services.
In doing so they would be extending their gatekeeping (tentacles) into distribution channels where they’re just not a legitimate authority.
At Vivaldi, we believe you have the right to run whatever software you want on a device you own. That’s why we’ve co-signed this open letter, together with other 53 organisations, requesting Google to back off on the proposed policy before it enters into force.
(Plus, they have have a pretty cool logo 😄)

It’s 2026, and some people still believe women don’t belong in tech. But we're here to prove them wrong. 😌
At Vivaldi, women are cofounders, sys admins, developers, QA engineers, HR, community specialists, and office managers. 🔥
If you're a woman in tech, what do you do?

Digital security does not have to be difficult, but for a lot of people who don't know where to start, it can be overwhelming.
How can we help others care more about their privacy (and everyone else's)?
There is a lot to learn in this episode, so if you have 45 spare minutes today, we highly encourage you to listen!
