A Windows 10 bug makes headlines thanks to Vivaldi
Recently, Yngve Pettersen from Vivaldi’s team reported a huge Windows 10 performance issue to Chromium. They discovered that the problem was caused by a Windows security feature and reported that to Microsoft. The story was picked up by many publications such as ZDNet and Forbes. Feel free to share with anyone who might be interested!
"Sometimes the most important piece of information is just the knowledge that a piece of code runs faster in one environment than the other". Fantastic that you could get the ball rolling so quickly on this one, @BruceDawson0xB @Windowshttps://t.co/Vl8fvvUOj0

Jon von Tetzchner talks to CNET
Did you catch Jon’s interview with Stephen Shankland from CNET? “We put the user at the center. A lot of people say something like that, but we actually do. We listen to the requirements of individuals. We built in the flexibility so everyone should be able to get the browser that they need and want. We’re also not engaging in data collection, because that wouldn’t fit with putting the user at the center.” Take a look at the interview for more thoughts on privacy as well as Vivaldi’s roadmap!
What I learned from @Vivaldi CEO @jonsvt exclusive interview: 1. Vivaldi won't block ads but might block ad trackers; 2. Android version of Vivaldi due this year; 3. He wants privacy regulation to block online tracking. https://t.co/2Ws0sGRdrO
