New features are always added before bugs are fixed.
That is not true. The developers are always working on bug fixes and new features. If there were no new features I would have left long ago. There is not a single bug that stops me using Vivaldi as my default browser, but Opera 12.18 is still my default email client.
You also want new features that we had in Opera 12.xx as do most of us.
TBH I prefer a limited feature set that works flawlessly over many new features that 'mostly' work. I agree there has to be some balance on this. But it is easy to forget about 'small' bugs and implement new things. But it is a dangerous road.
I have been using Opera since the early days (bought it at that time), and Vivaldi is my (only) browser since more than a year. So I am somewhat tied to it.
If a pileup of 'mostly working' things makes someone like me even think about alternatives it is something that should be taken serious, I doubt I'm the only one..... -
So, I counted 6 new bugs and only 5 fixes. Well done!
-
The installer did not delete: c:\Program Files\Vivaldi\Application\1.15.1146.5\ -- the previous snapshot folder
-
One more bug to piggy bank: tab icon dimming is not relevant. I see all my tabs as hibernated but none of them really are.
-
I needed like 5 minutes to install this snapshot, I thought the installer is frozen with the install-animation. It would be better to have really a progress of installation in %. The actual installer does not give you any useful information.

It is difficult to take you seriously when you complain so much about a trivial issue. Maybe you don't get the concept of Snapshot builds and a browser under development?
No, you're not the only one. Scores of users only visit the forums to complain about their pet issues, while contributing only a little of their free time to resolving them.
-
@burbuja It sometimes happened to me but usually gets deleted the next time Vivaldi is closed and reopened.
-
@burbuja that seem a pc hiccup on your side, here it took 1 minute max from download of the delta to restart of the new version.

Click & drag to mark text fails at bottom of viewport is also a mouse issue
It seems fixed for me, I can select all page and it scrolls while selecting even if mouse goes out of the window
-
@ian-coog Yes, I know it's fixed as it is says in the Blog. I was merely citing it as an example of a mouse issue that is not just cosmetic. It is a minor loss of functionality with a simple workaround ,(Shift+Click), but it is more than trivial as the workaround requires the use of keyboard + mouse.
-
@pesala better this way, it often happens that a feature is declared fixed while it works only on certain conditions/OSes.
-
VB-39220 (Unable to properly interact with iframes) seems to be fixed even if it isn't mentioned. Yay! Good work!
-
@ian-coog: I downloaded the full installer. ( Does "Delta" mean "on fly"? )
-
@burbuja updating via the autoupdate, a delta (binary difference between previous and new version) is downloaded instead of the full installer. In this update it was about 600Kb for me.
-
Great, selecting all the text of a page, works
-
Woohoo! Amazon Prime Music works again in Linux! This is the first time since version 1.12.955.48. Thanks, devs!
-
@linu74 New builds are coming up, I was not aware of the fact that Arch based distro's do not follow the general settings of the kernels.
-
@13-beta2: Confirmed
Win10x64 Vx64
-
@pesala: I understand it, but this is a big, time and man power consuming never ending dependency
-
@pesala: I intended not to chime in here, but the hand pointer is not cosmetic. It may be over ordinary links, but if you don't even know an image or any other element is clickable, that's not cosmetic
