A core ethos of Vivaldi is that we listen to our users, and we couldn’t help but notice the requests for an alternative to our default progress indication on page load. So, with this snapshot, we have introduced the spinner within the tab as an option. In fact we went a step further and even allow you to have both the progress bar and the spinner!
We are still deciding on the exact placement and naming of these settings. For the time being, if you want to show the spinner, go to “Preferences → Tabs → Tab Display → Favicon Spinner”. Should you want to disable the progress bar within the address field, go to “Preferences → Address bar → Address bar options → Page load progress bar”.
We have also fixed a bunch of serious recent regressions and have another (minor) Chromium bump. So take the build for a “spin” and let us know what you think below.
