A new version of the Vivaldi web browser, version 7.4, has been released, featuring updates aimed at enhancing the user experience by making everyday browsing "smoother, faster, and just a little more delightful."<\/p>\n
One of the key new features is the ability to customize keyboard shortcuts on a per-site basis. This allows users to prioritize shortcuts from specific websites over the default Vivaldi shortcuts, empowering them with greater control over their browsing experience. Jon von Tetzchner, the CEO of Vivaldi, explained that this update aims to ensure shortcuts work where they are most needed.<\/p>\n
To utilize this feature, users can navigate to Settings<\/strong> \u2192 Privacy and Security<\/strong> \u2192 Website Permissions<\/strong> and specify which sites should have prioritized shortcuts.<\/p>\n In addition to shortcut customization, Vivaldi 7.4 introduces a faster and less cluttered launch experience, thanks to a simplified profile picker similar to the new profile switcher in Firefox 138. Enhancements also extend to the Address Bar, which has been described as "smarter, faster, and more consistent." Users can now customize what items appear in the dropdown menu, including a new option for viewing search history.<\/p>\n Notable changes in this update include:<\/p>\n
