@DoctorG Thanks. I figured it out. I inadvertantly opened a version of Google Sheets via Vivaldi with an older Version History set [of Google Sheets history].

I located the newest version of updated Sheets and all is fine. This was a Sheets and User issue, and not Vivaldi.

Startpage in a regular window, DuckDuckGo in a private window.

Also see What's Vivaldi's business model.

@mib2berlin Yes, it's confusing. I would have expected something like "Use always 100% zoom" or "Use custom zoom per page".

@LonM
Thank you for your efforts. Unfortunately this doesn't work. There seem to act a java script in the background. I had that line in my .css. I suspect the toastprovider.scss or whatever. I'm busy with this since a week now and cannot stop to find a solution ...

Try clearing your browser cache and cookies or checking Vivaldi settings to adjust security preferences for that specific website.

The SMplayer is an allround solution of YT, also when the iFrame script cause that YT block a Video, because the author has blocked the Video outside YT, which the iFrame script really do (overlayed on the YT page), than is very usefull to have the SMplayer at hand (in the taskbar), the YT link which you copy is transferred direct to the SMplayer, only need to open, select the Url input and Enter.

@DoctorG The whole idea of calculating carbon emissions for websites/companies/individuals is very political. In fact I would say that all the comments here are gushing with 'political correctness' as well. This includes the threat to close the the topic if some imaginary political line is crossed.

I find that hilarious 🤣

There is a (long) thread on this

More of them here (official help).

@pafflick Thanks. it worked for me 👍

My main search engine is Andisearch, it was the first search engine with AI, long before the others. I like it a lot, because of it's great privacy measures, direct answers and relevant results from trustworth sources, own reader mode, summarize, watching YT Videos sandboxed in the search results, free, no ads, no trackers, no logs, no SEO crap, anonymous, aternative web searches with other privacy search engines if it don't find results (rare). PP very similar to the one of Vivaldi.

Why has this topic been moved? I was trying to figure out if other people have noticed this problem too, but I don't think a lot of people are active over here. This seems to be the off topic section. 🙄

@AllanH, in cases of this you can test it by yourself, using this page

@BSM2020 Hi, this is a website issue, so I've moved it to the general 'websites' section.

It's not related to Vivaldi.
Maybe someone who actually uses Yahoo can help.

@Timofey71
I am glad you solved it for you, this extension was not updated since a year.
I guess a Chromium update cause this.

@jeffclough
Hi again, please check private and guest window.

@ananthasai
Hi, I can load but open the page for the first time seems to work for you, too.
Do you change the default settings of the Vivaldi ad/tracker blocker? The lists update every few days.
Or do you use a second ad block extension and Vivaldi blocker?

@ybjrepnfr I am using the current Stable and filed the bug report using Stable's version number, as it's still in Stable. The change will have to migrate over.

I have sent a followup, requesting closure of VB-97886.

@Streptococcus, (??) all I mencioned working fine in any browser, desktop and mobile, even as PWAs.
Well, Phind is better in tech and programming questions than Andi, because is made specally for this themes, but not so in general searches. Also good Perplexity but it has a different concept, more centered in Chat answers, but it's only text, Andi offers way more possibilities, even view Videos direct in the search results, also schowing images. Most complete is You.com, but need an account and isn't so privacy centred like Andi.
Anyway, every search engine has it's advantages and flaws, because of this its recommended to use several different for a deep research or certain themes.
