Hello there, may I interest you in switching to a European web browser that has: ❌ Zero AI slop. ❌ Zero tracking. ❌ Zero external investors. 🤩 Endless ways to customize your setup. 🤩 Tons of powerful features. Oh, and it's an employee-owned alternative to the Big Tech giants. Welcome over!

If the @karaswisher.bsky.social tells you to try our browser…idk, maybe you should 🫶🏻 Catch the mention on the Pivot podcast: youtu.be/D6fkabsQPOo?...

A screenshot from Threads where Kara Swisher recommends Vivaldi. The post reads "Hey Kids, Today in our ongoing effort to rid ourselves of lake prevaricators, we dump Google Chrome and Apple Safari and take a spin on Vivaldi Browser. It's from Norway, where I just visited and which has city goats."

The post is accompanied by a screenshot of the download page for Vivaldi on iOS, and a picture of some goats sitting on a hill above a city.

Our CEO was just waiting in line behind me to get lunch and asking me if people out there appreciate having a non-Big Tech but powerful browser alternative that actually listens to them. Maybe you wanna tell him yourself? 📢

So nice of them to provide their users with choice 🙃

Meme showing Microsoft Edge's message where they suggest to use recommended browser settings. It says:

"Microsoft Edge helps you stay protected while you browse by blocking phishing and malware attacks. Set Microsoft Edge as your default browser. Confirm/ Set Later"

we have them show during the onboarding process show that people can choose it right away instead of having to dig through the settings. But there's always room for improvement, that's for sure:

Accessibility onboarding settings on Vivaldi:

Visual impairments, keyboard & assistive technology
Customize Vivaldi in ways that work best for you with accessibility features for vision, hearing, mobility, speech and cognition.

There's features such as Caret Browsing, Single Key Shortcuts, UI Focus Control, Webpage Focus etc.

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. ✨

Norway didn't win against France 🙁 But here's how to turn this around: GIVEAWAY! 🙂 This is Grotta's kit, an Icelandic football team that Vivaldi has been sponsoring for a few years. 🇮🇸 Like it? All you need to do win is: 1) Like this post 2) Tell us how can you contribute to the Digital Dugnad

do you mean single click with mouse or single key shortcuts? These are the keyboard shortcuts available (which you can set to whatever combination or keys or single keys as you want). The delete and mark as read are also available as buttons on the UI :))

someone sent us this, and the joke writes itself 🙃

screenshot of a Bing search page where someone has looked up the search term "Vivaldi" and Edge has returned a message that says "All you need is right here. Microsoft Edge runs on the same technology as Chrome, with the added trust of Microsoft. Get started". There's a comparison table on the right showing Edge having all of the categories and Chrome none, the categories being: "earn rewards", "built-in VPN", "AI personalization" and "Microsoft recommended".

Nope, we have not changed our minds ✊

Statement (white background, black letters) that says:

"Browse without AI"
Browsing should push you to explore, chase ideas, and make your own decisions. It should light up your brain.

When an artificial assistant sits between you and the web, Big Tech filters what you see and decides what you don't see. Your judgement is outsourced.

A browser that browses for you is like paying a robot to go out for dinner with your friends and give you a summary of the evening when it gets home.

Vivaldi is taking a stand. We choose humans over hype, and we will not turn the joy of exploring into inactive spectatorship.

Without exploration, the web becomes far less interesting. Our curiosity loses oxygen and the diversity of the web dies.

We exist for you to explore the web on your own terms. We refuse to reduce you to a passive spectator.

We are fighting for a better web where you're in control.

Jon von Tetzchner
CEO and Co-founder

Vivaldi"

this is not scientifically proven, but I believe the amount of cake and desserts eaten at this office is what make us (and our product) special (today's work is sponsored by one of our devs, who brought leftovers from yesterday's celebration)

Over the weekend we hosted a dugnad together with Hudd and Proton. "Dugnad" is a Norwegian word that means 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. (1/2)

got in the habit of saying this prayer with my kids every night just to be safe. Remember to say “ok google” before you start to make sure they hear you 👍🏼

The tech overlord’s prayer

Our great leaders who aren’t in heaven
Hallowed be thy reign
Thy intelligence come
Thy will be done
Online as it is in reality
Give us this day our daily impressions
And forgive us our opinions,
as we forgive those who voice their opinions to us.
Lead us not into critical thinking
But deliver us from inconvenience
For yours is the power, and the glory forever and ever

In the name of almighty Intelligence we pray
Amen
