Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen OC_Formula for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com June 10 news, Microsoft Bing Chat is very popular with users, but users must use an Edge browser to access it. Although Microsoft said recently that it has begun to provide experimental support for Bing chat to third-party browser users, it is still limited to some users, and Microsoft officials have not given a list of third-party browsers.

As a result, some third-party browsers have to find ways to solve it on their own. Vivaldi Technologies now has a new version 6. 1 update that brings Bing Chat support in a rather unexpected way.

Simply put, the new Vivaldi browser will "disguise" as a competitor: using the same browser logo as Microsoft Edge, or UserAgent,UA, to make it easier for its users to use Bing chat in advance.

According to developers, Edge's monopolization of Bing Chat discriminates against "user agents" (User-Agent), and fully compatible sites will be blocked because of UA string problems.

It is said that Chromium is now replacing User-Agent with a new client prompt standard, causing Vivaldi to be blocked by some services again. However, Vivaldi 6.1 can emulate Chrome to improve driver optimization, reduce memory consumption, achieve better stability, and reduce crashes.

In addition, Vivaldi can also disguise itself as a Google Chrome graphics driver, unlocking optimizations specifically made for Chrome, reducing GPU memory and resource usage, extending battery life, reducing crashes, and improving system stability.

CTOnews.com noted that when browsing the web, the UA identifier and Sec-CH-UA user agent client hint of Vivaldi are:

User agent: Mozilla / 5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit / 537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko)

Sec-ch-ua: "Not.A/Brand"; v = "8", "Chromium"; v = "114"," Vivaldi "; v =" 6.1"

However, when accessing Bing Chat, the browser changes it to Microsoft Edge's UA to achieve the effect of concealment:

User Agent: Mozilla / 5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit / 537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome / 114.0.0.0 Safari / 537.36 Edg / 114.0.1823.37

Sec-ch-ua: "Not.A/Brand"; v = "8", "Chromium"; v = "114"," Microsoft Edge "; v =" 114"

In addition, Vivaldi version 6.1 also makes improvements to the recently introduced workspace functionality. Users can now drag and drop and rearrange different workspace layouts according to your preferences or workflow. In addition, the browser allows you to select multiple tabs and copy their links.
