Jon S. von Tetzchner<p>31 years ago, Geir Ivarsøy and I started working on the Opera browser. A year later we founded Opera Software. </p><p>At Opera we wrote all our own code from scratch.</p><p>In 2011 I left Opera due to disagreement with investors about the direction Opera was heading. </p><p>Two years later, I co-founded Vivaldi to build a browser for you.</p><p>So I have been building browsers for 31 years. I think I know what it takes to build a browser. </p><p>Our Vivaldi team is for the most part in Norway and Iceland with a few people distributed around Europe and a couple of business people in the US.</p><p>Vivaldi is available for your computer and your phone, unless you have a very specific setup. Vivaldi might even be available for your car as well.</p><p>We go out of our way to provide you with a browser that matches your needs. I hope you like it.</p><p><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Vivaldi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Vivaldi</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Windows</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Macos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Macos</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Android" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Android</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/ios" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ios</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Computer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Computer</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Mobile" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mobile</span></a></p>
