Vivaldi 8.2.4133.89 — the first minute without a single click

How we tested: a clean Debian 13 in a disposable container; source — package vivaldi-stable 8.2.4133.89-1 from the vendor’s repository (https://repo.vivaldi.com/archive/deb). Run as a regular user on a virtual screen, 60 seconds, nothing clicked. 17.10.2026. Every network request and every file written was recorded; the code was not decompiled. The container was deleted afterwards.

How to read this card

• This is the first minute after launch with no action at all: what the program does on its own. Normal use may involve more requests.

• The review was made automatically using a single method. You can check any program yourself here.
