Ten years ago, we launched the first Technical Preview of Vivaldi with one simple goal, to create “a browser for our friends” as an alternative to Big Tech. A decade later, we now have millions of friends around the globe.

While Big Tech operates with endless budgets and aggressive data monetization, we’ve stayed true to our principles. We put independence, privacy, and our friends first.

A decade from now we'll still be fighting for a better Web as we build the most powerful, personal, and private browser for our friends.

@Vivaldi Congratulations on this great and memorable . 🥳🎈🥂🍾🎉

I've been using since the first technical preview and I can't imagine working without it, both privately and professionally.

VIVALDI offers me unique opportunities to work organized, efficiently and securely. This is all thanks to the great team behind the best in the world. :vivaldi_red:

In addition to all the profit-orientated tech giants, it is invaluable to have good alternatives that protect the privacy of their users. 🛡️

I would like to thank the entire VIVALDI for their fantastic work over the last 10 years. You guys make the difference! :tony_wee:

You are here. That makes you unique. You have made a good choice to take a step away from Big Tech. Now, get more people to join us. Help them with the initial process of setting things up.

If you have not done so already, download an alternative browser, such as Vivaldi as well. Consider whether you can move away from other Big Tech services. At Vivaldi, for example, we use Whereby for video conferences. Many of us have moved to Linux. Many of us use LibreOffice, instead of Microsoft office. There are options if you look for them. It is easy to go with Big Tech, but if you think the world would be better without them or if they had less power, know that you can make a difference.

For many years I‘ve used DuckDuckGo for search. But we can’t have just one Google alternative. Choices keep a market healthy.

I love where @Mojeek is going. Especially that they use their own crawler (DDG uses Bing).

I had some indexing issues with Mojeek so I reached out to them. They not only replied, but offered excellent help. AND they followed up twice, unsolicited.

It’s worth a look.

As we approach the end of 2024, I thought it'd be helpful to compile a list of the self-hosted apps launched in 2024 that I found to be particularly noteworthy.

And while I think this is a great list, I do have my own biases. So if you're looking for new software to deploy, please don't limit yourself to my list.

Today is the day. Welcome to THE charger!

USB-C is officially the common standard for charging electronic devices in the EU.

This means:

🔌The same charger for all new phones, tablets and cameras
⚡ Harmonised fast-charging technology
🔄 Reduced e-waste
🛑 No more “Sorry, I don’t have the right cable”

One charger to rule them all.

@EUCommission
It's a nice FIRST STEP...
But the EU should more care about SOFTWARE than Hardware. In Software Europa is COMPLETELY dependent on the USA - except with open source.
And instead of running behind the USA and China with trying to set up European tech companies Europe should consequently set on open-sourced and decentralized systems!
WHAT's the way to go!
