Hi, something is wrong with 7.3. I wrote about it on the forum here in this post:

@rashmik And ah, man oh man, if you use the Vivaldi account to get a subscription, you will have a surprise!
Knowing this from @pierre

@CtrlPig said in Vivaldi 7.2: Speedy and smart, a serious update.:

Please restore the "Drop-down menu priority" setting. I need to downgrade from version 7.3 to 7.1 to continue using this feature because the address bar's drop-down suggestions aren't intelligent enough. They consistently prioritize bookmark addresses that I rarely access over those I use daily.

Uncheck "Prioritize Bookmarks" in Addressbar settings and it should then be much more intelligent about what it prioritizes

@Ruarí

Thank you for confirming the bug! 😃 In that case, I'll wait for the fix so I can move it to the bottom, where I find it more visually appealing.

@Sebastian69 There is another way: disabling the chrome://flags/#top-chrome-toasts flag makes it disappear (after a Vivaldi reboot).

@yngve said in Minor update (2) for Vivaldi Desktop Browser 7.3:

My guess is that they have just forgotten this particular icon somewhere along the route.

Same i thought after i saw they tagged the bug as Fixed.

@sjudenim: Yeah, there's a reason I chose to run the "stable" build instead of the snapshot. And I genuinely thought that the updater was bugged when it was notifying second time today that there's an update available. And there was an update just couple days ago already.

With the current update, the address bar forgot about one of the account URLs on Twitter that I visit multiple times daily. All I got was four links to tweets, but not the main account.

How is that even possible?

Ok, I have a weird bug.

In the bookmark panel, when you open it and if it happens to be all the way down, and if you happen to select any entry that is visible in that part, and if you scroll down with your mouse wheel (which does nothing because you are already all the way down), then the alternating colored rows will shift colors as you scroll.

a number 🙂
Tx for the update!

In the past I had often problems with mouses, mainly with cordless. Issues like bad responses, dobble clicks, slow responses ...things like this.
Because of this, since time I only use a gaming Mouse (Steelseries) with cable, because they have a way more resistence in the micro switches and better precision. They cost maybe 10 bucks more, but it is worth it. My current Mouse, imported from my prev laptop, works flawless and accurate since more than 4 years.
Never again cordless, because the price is mainly for the bluetooth device and not so for the mouse itself, often with cheap components.

Can not reproduce flicker playing video with Picture-in-Picture.

@DoctorG I think my old laptop. Then I bought the phone, then new laptop.

We had some reports sync is running but nothing appear on the local device, no idea why.
Please check the windows panel for synced tabs, this is Sessions in sync-internals.
On which OS you are?

I'm using Ubuntu 24.10. JUst install and fresh Vivaldi but still not anything appear.

As for following Beta or Dev Chromium in production ....

My thoughts exactly 🙂 But i am not the one who writes the rules...

mib2berlin and yngve Thank you for the answers!

@trit34 said in Vivaldi 7.1: Widgets, Tabs, and sleek start to 2025:

Before I fill a bug report, I want to say that there is a bug with the clock in the status bar: first, let me tell you that I show the seconds and only the clock when an alarm is set.

I noticed, after upgrading to 7.1, that the clock ends being “frozen” after some time (seconds are blocked). It’s still functioning (hours and minutes are updated), though, despite the seconds field stays at “:00”. I have to set a fake alarm or hide/show seconds again to make them working again (but only for some time before they are blocked again).

Other bug: the setting to hide alarms’ names is not working, and is always shown in the status bar, even if you don’t want it. Plus, when an alarm is done, it’s not listed anymore in a finished timers list: they are totally deleted.

All these bugs occur on Vivaldi Stable 7.1, as well on Windows as on Linux. The RC step seems to not have tested the clock among the possible regressions from 7.0, I guess…

I’ve sent two bug reports about these bugs: VB-113760 and VB-113761.

@LordBlizzard Yes, the blog software posts here in Desktop News, too. But the blog is not to be used as support channel 😉

@deneban ??

@jon said in A New Vivaldi – A Whole New Browsing Experience:

Vivaldi 7.0 introduces a completely redesigned user interface, featuring floating tabs, sleek new icons, and a customizable Dashboard. The new Dashboard centralizes your digital tools into one convenient space. Along with updated Feed Reader capabilities, Vivaldi 7.0 is not just an update, it’s a new Vivaldi.

Well I personally love the old design. Though this one has some amazing display features like I am loving this customizable dashboard. This is so beautifully designed!

@iPristy The 132 Stable release date is January 14 2025

A (not so) funny fact: The originally scheduled 132 release date was Tuesday this week (the 17th); we were able to convince them to move it out into January.
