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.

This feature has been the reason many users have held out on making the switch to Vivaldi as a daily drive. Will be interesting to see the results of the testing and how quickly the features makes it into a final stable build.

Big fan of the Window Panel. I think I'll try disabling the Tab Bar and only uses this to manage my tabs for a bit. :)
