Vivaldi not syncing

Patience my young padawan.
Please check out my User Profile. I am not a novice user. Nor am I impatient. I report whenever the sync server is down to alert the people who can fix it if the problem is at the server end.
-
I mean that let the staff working on it, I'm sure they know the issues and that are trying to fix'em with the servers updates.
At least wait until they finish the pending server updates, and we'll see if the issues are solved or not.

Sync server is down at the moment 7:04 am GMT.
-
Server status says that it is operational, but sync is down again for me both yesterday and today.

look it doesn't work with me >> -
Anyone else having sync issues, or is it just a local problem?
I updated Windows earlier today. When I tried to run a speed test, it took a while to find the optimal server, which is in Leeds, while I am in London. Then I got this message and the test failed.
Update: Sync started working again.

Why can't I edit my post?
Rebooting fixed the issues.

I've been getting a lot of that annoying thing where old copies of bookmarks and notes keep coming back. So bad the last week or so that almost every time I open Vivaldi anywhere I have to spend a couple of minutes deleting more than thirty bookmarks and speed-dials and about a dozen notes.
I'm guessing it must be linked to at least one of the following, but haven't been able to establish causality:
- the sync icon on my main snapshot (work laptop) often shows loss of sync... might be related to the million "endpoint" blockers installed and/or because they set it to lock after about a millisecond of inactivity
- my mobile snapshot rarely syncs sessions (I usually see the "sync in progress" text instead)
- it seems to get worse after I open Vivaldi somewhere it hasn't been used for a while (Linux netbook, work phone, wife's laptop)
Anyway, it's getting to the point again where I'm going to have to blitz and re-sync every device I can think of... and hope I remember them all (oh yeah, mustn't forget my old phones in the drawer and the tablet I turn on about once a year!)

You are right on the mark. With equipment unused for awhile, one must disable the Vivaldi sync, delete all bookmarks and log back in sync. There will be no old/deleted bookmarks and will keep syncing properly. The same may apply to notes as well. Synch will not duplicate matching passwords.
Yes but it continues to happen on all my normal devices too, even after using that old device just one time and deleting all the duplicates. They just come back again and again and again...
Strangely, it seems to have stopped after I mentioned it yesterday. Weird.

All was fine earlier today. Now I get this message when starting Vivaldi. Logging out and logging in again, or restarting Vivaldi do not help. The server status says that sync is operational. I am using the latest Snapshot.
@doctorg said in Sync Broken in Current Snapshot:
i talked with the sync dev yesterday. that is a already reported issue with sync of bookmarks work is in progress.

What is unclear to me is what we should do now?
- sit and wait for a snapshot to arrive
- wait for news that the sync issue has been fixed otherwise,
- OR go through a reset of sync data on the server?
-
@s_paternotte Resetting sync using one of my snapshot installs broke it for all other Vivaldi installs, so I wouldn't do that.
I don't know if resetting from a stable will help - I might try some time.
-
@mossman reset sync does not help a 4.1 snapshot to get sync back.
wait until a new snapshot. work is in progress. -
Sync is currently not working. I am using the latest Snapshot. Vivaldi Status claims that it is operational.
-
@pesala Status of Sync is Outage now.
-
Outage of Sync is gone.
-
@doctorg Not syncing at the moment.
-
@pesala Oh, yes. Hangs after Login to sync in Initialisation.
After a while i got encryption password field and typed.
Some errors in vivaldi://sync-internals now. After restart of Vivaldi all was nice. -
@doctorg This is what I see:
