Vivaldi now Asks your confirmation for exit
First and foremost, the browser now asks for your confirmation when you’re about to close Vivaldi with tabs open. The exit confirmation dialog will be shown by default and you can disable this if you don’t want by visiting Settings > General > Exit > Show Exit Confirmation dialog. Recently, Opera has added this feature to the browser in version 58, read Opera 58: Warns when you close window with tabs open.
