Over the years, my teams have made a lot of different browsers on a lot of different devices. Which of the browsers below have you tried?
Which one is your favorite?
#Vivaldi #browser #Windows #Macos #Linux #Android #automotive #ios #Nintendo #WII #DS
@[email protected] I’ve used everything but Vivaldi Mobile/Automotive. For the latter I don’t have the device and I don’t really feel like I miss anything using the default browser on my mobile. However, I would say may favourite stays Opera with its MDI (which sadly has been “dumbed down” from version 9 or so to 12). I really appreciate the work going into the tab tiling in Vivaldi, but it still feels a bit clunky to use. Probably because it has to be built on top of the available codebase instead being an integral part of the browser. And every now and then I remember a neat little barely used thing Opera had and miss it for a moment in every other browser.
@[email protected] There was also Opera Mobile. I had it together with Mini on a few Nokia phones.
@[email protected] Opera Presto :ablobcatheartsqueeze:
@[email protected] Depends. Old Opera or Chinese Opera? Because old Opera was nice.
My team only made Opera until Opera 12.
@[email protected] @[email protected] the last good version of Opera
@[email protected] I had a period where I jumped around a bunch of web browsers before I finally settled on Firefox, but I did recall being a big fan of Opera (around version 10, I think). My fondness of Opera from that time is what made me so confident about jumping onto Vivaldi, and I’ve been loving my time with it ever since.
Opera on the Wii was such a fun and weird experience for me. I was fascinated by the ability to visit websites on my TV, it was so weird and new to me at the time… but can’t say I did much anything practical with it lol.
@[email protected] I really loved Opera (the real one, of course), but should it still be maintained nowadays, I don’t know if it would be sufficient for me and my current browsing habits, as it was in its latest Presto version.
Opera was wonderful, but Vivaldi is even better.
If Opera had continued to work on Presto, it would have added more functionality over time. Sadly they killed it, but that is also why you have Vivaldi, so IMHO that is a good thing. :)
@[email protected] When I am low on battery juice, and still need to do some webdev work I switch to Opera 12 🙂
@[email protected] I miss the old presto
@[email protected] I have used opera on wii to look up guides on games i was having trouble with
I think it would be cool if a very light weight version of vivaldi was made as a homebrew application for nintendo wii
you could distribute it on the open shop channel repository
@[email protected] none I only use FF
@[email protected] also to note. I offered my mother FF and Opera –> she always used Opera. In the meantime I moved her to Vivaldi.
Even if she uses no features and even tabs are some kind of strange to her, the opera / Vivaldi design seems appealing to her.
@[email protected] I miss Presto.
Presto was great, but sadly Opera killed it after I left.
@[email protected] I loved Opera for Nintendo Wii :tony_wee:
I also used Opera on Archos 5 Multimedia device, Opera for Windows Mobile and on Philips NetTV@[email protected] Although the poll is still live, I like seeing that ‘Vivaldi Mobile’ is holding court and sad I’m old enough to remember Wii having a browser. Straight up Vivaldi browser now - as you may know. Good poll, btw.
