Tracking blocker – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1838.3
-
@HalleAndert No such problem here. Try disabling all extensions.
Specs: AMD A10-6800K, 8 Gb on Win 10 64-bit 1909 build 18363.657 • Stable 2.11.1811.44 (64-bit)
-
@pesala: All extensions are disabled. I noted it below the 2nd picture. I just send a bug report to the devs.
(VB-64179) When I start Vivaldi, the browser shows an empty menu.

-
@lamarca: thank you for testing.
-
@pathduck: Both are not so good, TBH. Text matching is more expensive in terms of performance and because of not zero chance that title will be changed. Selectors with exclusion generally also not best performers and also not so robust in case of layout/markup changes... But both do their job, at least for current build.
-
@13-beta2 That's true I guess. Problem is, they've started using random garbage CSS class names like
button-toolbar ck7dxr1b40004325mg6udvr2g
. It's almost like they don't want us to change things. Then again sometimes they do change it to something more descriptive after a while.I could also style the
toolbar-insideinput
parent class, but it's also not unique so could risk it affecting something else in the code.So for now it'll have to do...
-
The add/edit bookmark popup can scroll horizontally. Can someone confirm?

In this build, there is now a further degradation of the Notes feature that allows you to merely click on the note title to go to the saved URL of the note's origin. The workaround has been to click on the link within the note itself. Now when the note sidebar is opened, the focused note does not display the link, which forces the user to select a different note, then click back to the desired note in order to display the link (which I think is new behavior). Can anyone confirm, short of me reinstalling the last 2.11 snapshot where one merely had to click the note title to go to the link? Thank you.
-
@Gigzama The Notes Panel in separate windows are independent, which can lead to this issue.

Hey, the tracker blocker is great so far. I visit another forum that is just littered with GoogleAd placed advertisements. I set Vivaldi to block all trackers, and now I just see spinning circles instead of the ads!
Is that a bug or a feature?
Spinning circles?! I don't recall seeing those with uBO. Maybe you mean just on that one site but not in general?
-
@rseiler Well, isn't that better than the ads. I'm not sure about this as I have still uBO and uM enabled, but I think it's for all G-ads.
-
@potmeklecbohdan: Yes, it's far better than the ads. It's almost hypnotic, though, to see all those spinning circles, but I'm not complaining
-
@wpcoe I think you can get just static circles—but you'd have to disable animated images (settings→webpages→play image animation; but it'd also break many things) or do it somehow with CSS, I don't know which version will work.

@meymigrou: Weird. This is something that was fixed in one of the minor stable releases afaik. Not sure why it didn't make it through to this snapshot build.
The stable version seems fine. But in the snapshot version, it keeps closing again and again.

@meymigrou This seems like an edge-case. Why would anyone have bookmarks or speed dials for non-existent sites?
I have so many bookmarks and speed-dial that I really don't know if some of them have been deleted or they don't exist anymore.
-
@pesala: I only ever have one window open. This is definitely new behavior, because I was using the "workaround" in previous builds and never had to do this before.

I agree with this - it's why Opera's attempt to drop bookmarks was so moronic... bookmarks are for you to keep a list of places you may need to visit again in the future, it's not the "I use these sites every day" sites which you can find in your speed-dial, history, typed history or even just remember since you use them all the time.

@meymigrou This sounds like a job for an extension.
