Finally Friday – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 2867.22

[mathieu62]

There's this bug on Fedora 37 I have been getting since its release : right-click stops working randomly, right-click doesn't display its popup in pages anymore or on a tab (to pin it or whatever). Just restarting Vivaldi makes right-click popup show up (and its actions are therefore available).

I have been trying to find what's triggering it, but it seems very random, there doesn't seem to be a pattern triggering it. I don't have this problem on windows.

Also Vivaldi starts flashing a black page randomly after some time if I'm on a wayland. Fortunately Xorg isn't going anywhere soon.

And as usual, thanks for making Vivaldi a great browser, it keeps getting better and better with every release.

This is present in the stable as well.

Go to chrome://settings/searchEngines and try to delete Bing. Instant crash

@wetware05: Even if auto-opening of the download bar is not desired anymore by developers (I can imagine some people want to keep bookmarks opened instead), the feature is broken. Initiating download sometimes shrinks the bar, which does not make sense in any scenario. The bug is also present in 2867.22.

Switched from stable to Snapshot and it is pretty stable. Would have liked a page thats says: "whats new with Vivaldi"

Currently the Snapshot has not the security fix that Vivaldi 5.5 Stable got few days ago!

If you surf with 5.6.2867.22 Snapshot, you use it on own risk to be attacked my malicious website content.
I do not recommend to use for surfing as vulnerability is already in the wild.

@AryanDevasagayaum The changelog is in the page linked by Ruari in his first post of this thread. And it goes here:

There is always one in every snapshot thread.

@iAN-CooG Yep I forgot about that lol. But so far the Snapshot looks neat. Hmm wonder what they will gift us for Christmas?

Would like coloured tab group

[akutit]

what about "send to devices" feature please? any luck on fixing it?

[DoctorG]

@akutit No progress for Vivaldi dev team as Google Chromium developers removed it from core.
