The latest version of Vivaldi benefits its users by masquerading as Edge on the desktop and adds more functionality to workspaces and tabs.
Support Microsoft Bing Chat
Vivaldi is built on top of the Chromium open source project. It's the same core used by Edge and Chrome. In theory a website that works fine in one Chromium browser should also work fine in other browsers, but that's not currently the case.
While Vivaldi would like to proudly announce itself as Vivaldi, the current state of the web makes that difficult. Previously, by disguising itself as Chrome, you could improve Vivaldi's battery life, reduce crashes, improve system stability, and unlock graphics driver optimizations made specifically for Chrome.
Today, Microsoft's Bing Chat is popular with many users, but users must use Microsoft's Edge browser to achieve it. Now, Vivaldi has taken the extra step of masquerading as the Edge browser when users visit Bing to ensure that users can also use Bing Chat in Vivaldi.
The workspace has been improved
In Vivaldi 6.0, Vivaldi introduces workspaces on the desktop. Vivaldi 6.1 continues to improve workspaces, now users can drag and drop and rearrange different workspaces according to your preferences or workflow.
Copy and share links from tabs
In Vivaldi 6.1, you can now select all selected pages and copy multiple webpage links at once. You can quickly share your hotel search or travel itinerary with friends in one simple operation, and this feature is also available in the workspace.
