Update (Apr 15, 1900 CET): Cloudflare just pushed a fix to production, and my testing on a site seems to confirm that the problem is gone. Hello all, In the past week we have received a lot of reports in the @Vivaldi forums about problems with the @cloudflare &quot;Are you a human?&quot;-&quot;verification&quot; system used by many web sites. We just posted a forum post explaining the underlying issues and a workaround for one common issue related to the current problems. https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/117404/cloudflare-verification-and-vivaldi-april-2026 #Vivaldi #Cloudflare

@TechieNotNetie@social.vivaldi.net @Vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net Why isn't there a "clean" UA string for Vivaldi? Instead of "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/146.0.0.0 Safari/537.36" (even with the Sec-CH-UA browser identity HTTP header set to Vivaldi) do "Vivaldi/7.9 (Chrome/146.0.0.0)" maybe add the OS? At least as an option. I seriously doubt it but if there are any websites outside there that still require a "Mozilla/5.0" they should be updated and/or avoided. I get that the Chrome-part might be relevant (it shouldn't), everything else is just stupid and wrong.

@TechieNotNetie@social.vivaldi.net @Vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net @cloudflare@noc.social I also had to clear all of my cookies in order for this fix to finally work for me.

@TechieNotNetie@social.vivaldi.net @Vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net @cloudflare@noc.social How about Clownflare fixes their crap “verification”? This week it’s Vivaldi, next week it’s Firefox, repeat forever. WTF are they even “verifying”?

@TechieNotNetie@social.vivaldi.net @Vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net @cloudflare@noc.social Hi, I'm new to Vivaldi and loving it so far. I'm trying to get used to it before I switch to this phone. BUT!...I do miss glide typing. Is there an app of similar philosophy (similar to the fundamental Vivaldi philosophy) that I can download for this purpose (glide typing)?
