    If there’s anything I’d want built in more than anything it would be vertical tabs like what the existing sideberry extension provides. I also use Vivaldi which has it native, and I’ve been hooked ever since.

    Edit: and tab manager plus. Same functionality and interface but native.

    The existing extensions are fine, but if they are wanting to add things already provided by a third party, those two are my must haves for a modern browsing experience.

        Cause after I have 60 tabs open I can still tell what they are cause I can read the title, not just see the fav icon.

        Praise Vivaldi

        easier to scroll and read and works good in wider monitors plus tabs don’t get so small you can’t read the title anymore cause its just a fixed space

        For people who always right click and select “open in new tab” like myself vertical tabs make my 10s or hundreds of tabs manageable

        These two pretty much explained my reasons for switching to vertical. It did take a day or so to become accustomed to it, but now it feels pretty natural.

        Vertical tabs to me are perfect next step in browser gui, just like when tabs became a thing to begin with.

      In this case, I would check out the Floorp browser. It is a Firefox fork that plans to be more like Vivaldi and have lots of features, including vertical tabs.

      Vivaldi browser is known to collect and sell your data on your usage like everything else except Firefox and chromium (not chrome); in case you didn’t already know

        I disagree wholeheartedly.

        https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/62387/data-collection?lang=en-US&page=1

        A web search shows others showing concerns on various sites, and dev/staff responses.

        I’d be more concerned about brave, your own isp, tiktok. Then the whole deal with backdoors in Intel chips and running minix. Don’t remember if amd has the same deal.

        Vivaldi is fine. From what I’ve seen they mainly check out things like what os I am running, things of that nature. I can live with that. Steam from valve knows my hardware too. Heck the oil shop knows my vin, mileage, make, and model, as far as my car goes. I can live with that as well.

        The only knock against Vivaldi is it being closed source.
