Vivaldi 1.9 – Plant trees as you browse
-
@bycrash: See my reply above bycrash, and thanks for the extra details
-
@Aronand glad to be of help, and thanks for the update on it
-
One more new version! Congrats for the dedication and commitment:)!
-
Love Vivaldi but... it looks like the new search engine is not very private. I think it would have been good to mention that in the announcement. It does sound like a great idea. But, the data goes to Bing!!! Are you kidding me?

@Tyrone said in Vivaldi 1.9 – Plant trees as you browse:
You are not forced to use any of the proposed engines, make your own ones and delete the ones you don't trust. Easy.
-
Had to uncheck "Check on startup" (Default browser), because Vivaldi is now convinced that it's not the default browser on Win10 (it is, and has been). That's minor.
As expected, this problem is still around:
https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/15429/tab-cycling-and-tab-opening-issues-while-using-tab-stacks/141.9 got to the RC stage so quickly, that because of the "serious regressions since 1.8 stable" filter, for reasons that I've never understood (this happens with every release), that previous regressions are off the table. It would seem to me that serious regressions should be FIFO, but I guess not.
Failing that, why not just comment on these things as the threads appear, so people who have the problem and have reported it are not just fumbling around in the dark indefinitely? Something like "Yes, we confirm this. It won't make it into release x.x. but we're looking at y.y." Or "Yes, we're seeing this too. Our aim is to fix it in the next release." Or even "No, we think you're all crazy, no one is seeing that here." Anything would be better than "".

Ecosia is great ! Already +500 trees planted for me

@rseiler: The developers are extremely busy (and so are the volunteer mods - with their real lives) so no one can check the status of each complaint in each of hundreds of posts every day. The developers don't even have time to read here most of the time. Everyone with knowledge who reads a post tries to respond meaningfully. There simply aren't the resources to respond to each issue.
-
@slpwlkr: I agree with you, I'm waiting either the fix of pop ups issue

@kamarade: thanks for adding it manually, the restore tip didn't work for you?
Disadvantage of restore: All own search engines must be re-added by hand - I fished my Ecosia string from a clean profile too.
For all who want to do that too, the search string is:

great update!!
-
opera dev is going the wrong direction. I hate their new UI and their bundles. In a few opera builds, it look like I could be moving to vivaldi
-
@archive1 that's why Vivaldi was born in first place
-
It's a bit sad that there has been little progress with respect to the forum''s most wanted features for 1.6, 1.7, 1.8 and 1.9.
-
For the love of God stop make "features" and correct the high consumption of ram and cpu usage, Please!
-
@Mioni It's possible that you might have issues with your Vivaldi profile. On my Mac, Vivaldi's memory and CPU usage is comparable to Chrome, and perhaps even slightly better overall resource-wise.

It used to be that you could manually sort selected bookmarks in the sidebar (e.g. one particular folder's worth), then click Sort By Title so that overall you have an A-Z sort. At that point, when doing an "Open in Background tab" on the particular folder, the bookmarks would open in the manual sort order.
No more. The way it seems to work now, is that unless you're still on manual sort, the bookmarks will always open in alphabetical order only.
-
The repository automatically updated Vivaldi just now and now it looks identical to Google Chrome! There's no Ecosia on search engine option either.
-
I purged the installation, then downloaded a new DEB off the Vivaldi.com website, now it looks like a real Vivaldi browser in all its functionalities.
There must be something wrong with the DEB file on the repository.
