I have spoken here before about my love of Opera and how I used it from 2004-2017 before leaving it for Chromium. Now, I know they are not the same thing, but there are similarities in the staff base between Opera and Vivaldi, as far as I'm aware.
I always felt that Vivaldi as a browser was great but not 'quite there'. However, this latest version, 2.1.1337.51, seems to have tipped things over the line. The main thing is not only the functionality, which is great, but the appearance. Vivaldi gives the user so many options and so much control, but the new 'Window Background Image' option is a masterstroke - well done to whoever thought of that. The browser now looks beautiful.
I think this comes at a good time since I didn't like what had happened to Chromium after version 69: I was still using 68 and refusing to update. This now gives me a reason to move over and, to an extent, back.
So thank you ruario, and thanks to the Vivaldi team. You're doing a sterling job.
Good day.
I am really surprised, that someone named Lysander666 would have personal preference to classics - like opera or Vivaldi. I would expect a preference like Rammstein, Megadeth, Holy Diver or at least Metallica. Anyway, sorry for off-topic. Just couldn't pass along this irony.
