Vivaldi 2.0 arrived earlier this month and really got this browser out of the shadows, packing most — if not all and then some — of the features that both computer geeks and average users need. Now, Vivaldi 2.1 is already available — the version number of the latest public version is 2.1.1337.36, if you were wondering — and comes with noticeable improvements to the popular Quick Commands feature, as well as a few other goodies.
Without further ado, this is a quick roundup of the most important changes that come with Vivaldi 2.1:
- UI Zoom with support for command line parameters
- AV1 and Open media support
- Notes creation now possible in Quick Commands
- Bookmarks opening via Quick Commands
- many other Quick Commands capabilities, such as Browsing History search
This piece of code is now finally mature and ready for everyone to use it, but it still has a major problem: there is no mobile version available yet. Once they check this item on the list as well, its developers can finally celebrate Vivaldi's entry into the web browsers' major league.
What's your favorite Vivaldi feature? Feel free to tell us what you think about this piece of code in the comments.

In my early school days, I hated writing and having to make up stories. A decade later, I started to enjoy it. Since then, I published a few offline articles and then I moved to the online space, where I contributed to major websites that are still present online as of 2021 such as Softpedia, Brothersoft, Download3000, but I also wrote for multiple blogs that have disappeared over the years. I've been riding with the Notebookcheck crew since 2013 and I am not planning to leave it anytime soon. In love with good mechanical keyboards, vinyl and tape sound, but also smartphones, streaming services, and digital art.
