VPN (Proxy) extensions won't load after login
-
I tried ZenMate and Keepsolid VPN extensions, and they won't work properly after login, showing blank screen. They work perfectly fine on windows and mac.
Using fresh kubuntu 22.10, and just installed Vivaldi 5.7.2921.53 as part of my setup process for a new device.

Hi, I use ExpressVPN, normaly I start it from a terminal but I checked the extension and this work on 5.7.2921.53.
Specs in my signature.
What do you meant with "won't work properly"?Cheers, mib

They just show blank screen instead of interface, without letting me to even connect after I input my login and password.
And this is how the same personal profile looks at Windows:

Ah OK, hard to check without account.
Same profile folder meant you copy the profile folder from Windows to Linux?
This work but not for extensions and passwords.Cheers, mib

No, I used Vivaldi sync. I don't copy files like this between OS'es, but can do sometimes during reinstall. This is not the case, profile is downloaded from Vivaldi servers for this personal profile.
I also tried on a fresh snapshot which is 5 days old without a profile - same story.

AV and an app to eliminate garbage, cookies, cache, etc. that accumulate over time. Both work fine, but show full volume video ads at the end. There is no right or reason for this, being the brand of mobile that I bought with my money. Nor does it let me uninstall them, to replace them with good alternatives without this abuse, what remains then is to install an adblocker for the installed apps (Blokada) and fix them. There are other methods to create income than this.

@sneaky4oe could you solve this problem ?
-
@hadyrock2020 Unfortunately no. Still struggling with it. Zenmate devs suggest to use without logging in for now
Nothing from Vivaldi team. -
fdcgdnkidjaadafnichfpabhfomcebme - zenmate's extension ID. I transferred 2 folders from my windows PC to Linux PC and it seems to be working fine.
-
More issues - trying to authorize nami wallet from namiwallet.io - an empty window opens without any UI element with only vivaldi logo, and doesn't let me do anything in it. :-| So far Vivaldi on Linux experience is below mediocre.

Hm, for me it´s exactly the opposite.
This could be an issue with Vivaldi and your GPU/driver combination.
Try to disable hardware acceleration in Settings > Webpages > restart Vivaldi for a test.
You use lot of extensions, the same as on Windows?
I would create a new profile and install only this extension.This is on my laptop, Opensuse Linux, specs in my signature.
