Vivaldi Browser is a fast, private and secure browser that blocks ads and trackers. It puts you in control with unique features. Get Vivaldi for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android! Vivaldi Browser Community. Here’s why you'll definitely want to sign up. With a Vivaldi account you can synchronise your Vivaldi browser data, participate in forum discussions, get a free webmail account (YourUsername@vivaldi.net), and host a blog on Vivaldi.net (YourUsername.vivaldi.net). Vivaldi has descriptions on bookmarks and Google never did. Firefox used to be the best but they dropped most of their great features and when they dropped descriptions near the end of 2018, I completely dropped Firefox. When you set up a browser you can get information from another browser but as a far as I know that is a one-time thing. View labeled messages. All labels you’ve created will be listed in the Labels folder in the Mail Panel.Click on the Labels root folder title to view all labeled messages or click on a specific label to view only messages with that label. To open the Mail Panel: Click on the Mail button on the Panel; Go to Vivaldi Menu View Mail Panel; Use the Keyboard Shortcut Ctrl+Shift+M / ⌥⌘M; Type “ Mail Panel ” in Quick Commands; Create a Mouse Gesture for the action.
After writing a quick overview of Vivaldi’s Web Panels, we figured it was only fair to share a few of our favourite sites to use as Web Panels :)
We’ll start it off with a few sites that fall into the ‘social media’ category.
Twitter is probably the most obvious use for a Web Panel, so let’s get it out of the way as the first one.

If you actually use LinkedIn, it works quite well within a Web Panel.
URL to add:https://www.linkedin.com/feed/
Neat way to scroll through your Instagram feed. You can view, like and comment on posts – for “Stories” you’ll need to use the App or web based version of Instagram.
URL to add:https://www.instagram.com
YouTube
Works remarkably well as a Web Panel, I use it to keep track of my most recent subscriptions and will often have something playing in a YouTube Web Panel while I’m composing emails etc.

Last.FM
One of the few music sites that functions within a Web Panel.

Live Music Archive
Almost makes up for Spotify not working in a Web Panel. Almost.

Dropbox
Quickly access and even manage your Dropbox files via a Web Panel. Apowersoft free screen recorder 3 2 1.

Google Calendar
It’s a useful way to take a glance at your calendar and quickly add events, but you’ll probably get a bit frustrated trying to navigate through much more than those simple functions.

Google Contacts
This a handy Panel to have if you use Google Contacts and are half as forgetful as I am.

Google Maps
Not really a lot to say about this one… Works well.

Google Translate
Perfect for a Web Panel.

Google Voice
Make calls, check your voicemail, send messages – all within a Web Panel.

Google News
Google News works quite well within a Web Panel, especially after the recent UI update (the one that everyone but me hates).
URL to add:https://news.google.com/
Google Weather
This Web Panel is really just a Google search for the word weather followed by your city and state/province/country, which in turn will display the weather results for that city – including a 7 day forecast etc.

Bleacher Report
Quickly scroll through sports headlines including video content
URL to add:http://www.bleacherreport.com/ (I use http://www.bleacherreport.com/toronto-maple-leafs)
Scan through Hot/Popular or a particular channel, All, etc.

Hacker News
Looks and functions perfectly.

Diply
While looking for interesting sites to use as Web Panels, I came across Diply. I’d never heard of it and as far as I can tell had never viewed a page on that site. Did you know it’s the 29th most popular site in the US (according to Alexa).

Buzzfeed
Looks and functions perfectly.

Unfortunately These Don’t Work
Or perhaps a better ‘heading’ should be “I Can’t Figure Out How to Get These To Work”. If you can, please share the details via a comment below.
Spotify
Wants you to install the mobile App.
Feedly
The ‘sidebar’ that Feedly utilizes takes up too much screen real-estate to be practical in a Web Panel.
Gmail Official Log In Site
Pandora
Wants you to install the mobile App.
Messenger.com
Rumor has it this worked at one point but doesn’t now (?). If you’ve figured out a way to use Messenger.com within a Web Panel please share the URL to add in the comments below. Thanks!
Google Chrome Web Store
I’m not sure how practical this would be to use as a Web Panel, but I’ll never know since it doesn’t work at all.
A fully-featured email client is the latest feature to be added to Vivaldi, the Chromium-based web browser.
The bods beavering away on the wannabe web fave have added a native IMAP and POP3 email client to the app, as well as a RSS feed reader, and multi-account friendly calendar. Other recent feature additions have included a word processor and a built-in arcade game.
Although Vivaldi Mail (as the feature is known) is currently of a ‘pre-Beta quality’ it is fully functional and works relatively well already.
On paper Vivaldi Mail will work with most modern e-mail services via IMAP or POP. Alas, for now, this doesn’t include Google or Gmail accounts.
When I attempt to authorise Vivaldi Mail through the Google consent flow (so it can access my Gmail inbox) an alert appears to say: “Sign in with Google temporarily disabled for this app. This app has not been verified yet by Google in order to use Google Sign In.”
Vivaldi says the is a ‘known issue’ and, for now, no more than 100 concurrent logins to Gmail from Vivaldi Mail are permitted.
You can use alternative mail providers with the app. Vivaldi Mail can even autodetect the correct settings (which can be manually edited too). The browser offers to help you sign up for a free Vivaldi.net emai account (assuming you want one).
I won’t make any claims about Vivaldi Mail being better or worse than any other mail clients, like venerable Thunderbird or (my fave) Geary. That said, it’s nice to have options.
A wealth of mail settings are available to this app. You can change the mail view layout from vertical panes (default) to horizontal (more like Thunderbird); set preferences for how often to check for new mail, and where to show new mail alerts within the browser UI.
What Is Vivaldi Webmail
Vivaldi mail isn’t enabled by default. So, to test Vivaldi Mail you will need to explicitly enable Vivaldi Mail by hand. This is hard. Just open vivaldi://experiments in a new tab, check the box beside the “Mail, Calendar and Feeds” option, then quit and re-open Vivaldi.
