Slite is adding AI to it's workspace tool, but not in the way you'd expect. It's called "Ask" and it allows you to just... ask questions of the content in your team's workspace. Using a LLM + GPT to synthesize an answer and cite the references.


Check out this tweet from the founder of Slite (a Notion competitor focusing on remote teams) for video and examples of how Discussions will work.

"It lets you make key decisions meeting-less, in context of your docs, and it launches in 2 weeks!"


"Big update alert: Vivaldi says no to Google Idle API, improves Capture, Download Panel, Sync, adds 68 new languages to Translate, and more."

Yes, this. The ability to drag and resize them now is just brilliant. I pretty much only use it to view two pages side-by-side, but when you try it with 4 or 5 tabs the resizing is a dream.


I do that with other browsers with multiple windows. Meta+left and meta+right (in cinnamon and many other desktop UIs) automatically place the window in the left and right half of the monitor.


Re: "Why we are doing this", see https://vivaldi.com/company/

From wiki: > "Vivaldi began as a virtual community website that replaced My Opera, which was shut down by Opera Software in March 2014.[15] Jon Stephenson von Tetzchner was angered by this decision because he believed that this community helped make the Opera web browser what it was. Tetzchner then launched the Vivaldi Community—a virtual community focused on providing registered users with a discussion forum, blogging service, and numerous other practical web services—to make up for My Opera's closure. Later, on January 27, 2015, Vivaldi Technologies launched—with the community in mind[16]—the first technical preview of the Vivaldi web browser."

Just putting this out there but... does any browser pass the fingerprinting test?

Quick look with Firefox, Brave, Safari and all has similar results for me.


I did read once that Tor should pass, but never had a chance to try

Sync has been live in the snapshot version for quite some time. it's planned to be released to the stable version in Vivaldi's next major update.


i use the snapshot version as my default on mac and it's definitely usable (and then some). you do run into the odd bugginess, but anything major is usually fixed within a few days.
