Vivaldi is a browser for our friends. In 1994,
two programmers started working on a web browser. Our idea was to
make a really fast browser, capable of running on limited hardware,
keeping in mind that users are individuals with their own
requirements and wishes. Opera was born. Our little piece of
software gained traction, our group grew, and a community was
created. We stayed close to our users and to our roots. We kept
improving our software, based on our users feedback, as well as our
own ideas on how to make a great browser. We innovated and we
strove for excellence. Fast forward to 2015, the browser we once
loved has changed its direction. Sadly, it is no longer serving its
community of users and contributors who helped build the browser in
the first place.
So we came to a natural conclusion:…
We must make a new browser. A browser for ourselves and a browser
for our friends. A browser that is fast, but also a browser that is
rich in functionality, highly flexible, and puts the user first. A
browser that is made for you.
