A small step for Vivaldi, a massive leap for Big Tech detox and digital sovereignty. 🔥
For ages, people have been forced to use Big Tech solutions at work and school. NOT ANYMORE.
Time to let your school admins and IT departments know that there’s a new independent European browser in town with everything you need, and nothing you didn’t ask for. No tracking. No profiling. No built-in AI. No license fee.
Vivaldi for Enterprise is available today! 🏫
🆕 Copy Sanitized Link
Links often carry tracking parameters that tell a site who shared them and where they came from. Copy Sanitized Link strips those out before the link reaches your clipboard, so the person you send it to gets the page and nothing else. It’s an easy habit that keeps a bit more of your browsing to yourself.
Available now in Vivaldi 8.3 on mobile and desktop. ✅
It's trifle Thursday! Today we are launching Vivaldi 8.3 on Desktop, iOS and Android, which brings:
🛡️ Rebuilt ad and tracker blocker, with a new UI, new blocking levels and extensive backend refactoring
🔗 Copy sanitized links to remove tracking parameters
Desktop also gets two highly requested updates to vertical tabs:
📊 Expand tab bar on hover
📌 Pinned tabs in grid
...and there's much more in store, including a massive performance boost for our iOS version!
Get it from http://vivaldi.com or you preferred store and let us know what you think!

Time to update your Android devices: extensions are here. 🔥
We've been working on a fun little project for a while and we'd love to welcome you to take the first look at it:
Everyone, this is our newest community service: Vivaldi Radio.
Vivaldi Radio, this is the fediverse!! :tony_wee:
Vivaldi Radio is a free radio streaming service where you can discover radio stations from all over the world without being tracked, just like how radio used to be. No popups, no ads, suggestions. Just you and the music.
This is a work in progress, we're still adding stations and polishing things, but we’re excited to hear about your first impressions and improvement suggestions. ❤️
Visit radio.vivaldi.net to start exploring! 🎧
No, in case you wonder, we haven't changed our minds.
New Vivaldi just dropped.
And by new, we mean NEW. ✨
By now you've all probably heard about the latest shenanigans from Google and their love for in-browser AI features (if you don't, this is the story: https://www.theverge.com/tech/924933/google-chrome-4gb-gemini-nano-ai-features).
Our team has been inspecting the Chromium code and disabling stuff from the very first version of Vivaldi (we have some posts about this in our blog, such as https://vivaldi.com/blog/news/alert-no-google-topics-in-vivaldi/ or https://vivaldi.com/blog/no-google-vivaldi-users-will-not-get-floced/).
We've also been very outspoken about our dislike of the built-in AI trend in the browser industry, but in case there's still any doubts: yes, we disable all Gemini-related features, and we've been doing it for a while.
Vivaldi 7.9 is here!
We’ve put a lot of effort into this release and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do. ❤️

Big Tech occupied our free web. So what do we do?
We are loud about it. 😎
(Translation: The internet is occupied)
Here's a reason to celebrate this weekend: we are now more than 4 million Vivaldi users worldwide :tony_wee:

Big Tech: "Introducing AI that can hallucinate answers to questions you didn't ask"
Vivaldi: "We made the most advanced tab multitasking system ever built”
Big Tech: "But AI is the future…."
Vivaldi: "Cool. Our future includes a browser the user controls, and it shipped today"
Big Tech: "You're missing the point…."
Vivaldi: "You're missing the download link"
Vivaldi 7.8. No bullshit. Just love for tabs and our users

Some things are thankfully better in 2026 than they were in 2016. 😅 This is what a decade of caring about your user base looks like:
