More Catch up – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 3238.3
-
As always, thank you devs for all your hard work; we appreciate you so much. Sometimes I am amazed how far you have brought this software already. Vivaldi truly makes accessing the web a good experience.
-
Great work as always! Is there a chance that the fix to VB-102562 will be ported quickly to the stable channel? I have to cope with many emails every day.
-
Three pertinent fixes I spot straight away:
- Curious to see if the speed dial thumbnails stay alive now
- Funny that site preferences is now in settings when I was looking for exactly that option a couple of days ago! (when I discovered a "bug" I'd reported last year was actually an incorrect site setting)
- Also funny to see that there were problems with address bar "best result" when I had turned off this option in the address bar settings (thanks to a tip from @DoctorG ) since I was finding it so annoying recently!
-
I keep on saying this but Vivaldi (Mac) needs an update or two simply and solely based on performance. The development has been going like a train and I love it, but the performance has been in steep decline on all my devices.
Fix catch-ups like 3222.3 happen, I know, but I think Vivaldi has objectively becoming more and more heavy in the last 2/3 years; even upgrading my machines, the trend seems to be the same.I am extremely picky with my browsers, and I have no intention of leaving Vivaldi because I love it; but it would be amazing if a couple of updates were focused on performance and RAM usage - I'm sure some ️ nice marketing would make even these featureless updates as ️ appealing as the rest .
Thank you -
Speaking of search that doesn't do the right thing, I just noticed this glEtch in the search field, anyone else seeing this? Happens with every engine, not only google.
A second column of text appears under the "X"

@iAN-CooG
Hi, looks fine here: -
@mib2berlin you are using the address field (I see the shield icon)
I said in the search field. It also happens in the search field in the speed dial, 2 colums of text instead of one.
-
Great job with the fixes!
I found some inconsistencies with the address bar autocomplete recommendations. Here's my comment explaining it, and some steps to hopefully replicate it:

@iAN-CooG
Ah sorry but I get the same in the search field, one column. -
@ian-coog: Yes, I have the same issue.

Google Search issue
Google Search has no suggestion URL setting be default.
Which is yours? -

@Ruarí First!
He's first many times…Am I missing something or Google's Image Search doesn't work on contextual menu?
-
@Gif2D
Hi and yes, image search is broken, Google, Bing iirc.
We have a thread about with a fix:https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/93674/search-for-image-using-google-does-not-work/17?_=1705343993321
Cheers, mib

for most obtuse bug title ever?
... and yet I know precisely what it's being talked about. If I understand correctly however, it might not be fully fixed though - sometimes, when I'm entering something I intend to search for with the default search engine, a history item pops up right before I submit and gets opened instead of the search.

any, really, I just retried also bing, wikipedia and duckduckgo, Ecosia & Qwant, but here's my search urls to compare them
Google: https://www.google.com/search?q=%s&{google:originalQueryForSuggestion}{google:prefetchSource}{google:sourceId}{google:contextualSearchVersion}ie={inputEncoding} https://www.google.com/complete/search?client=chrome&q=%s
Bing: https://www.bing.com/search?q=%s&FORM=INCOH2{bing:Referral} https://www.bing.com/osjson.aspx?query=%s&language={language}
DuckDuckGo https://duckduckgo.com/?q=%s&{ddg:Referral} https://duckduckgo.com/ac/?q=%s&type=list
Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search?search=%s https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=opensearch&search=%s
Qwant https://www.qwant.com/?client=brz-vivaldi&q=%s&t=web https://api.qwant.com/v3/suggest/?q=%s&client=opensearch&locale=it_IT
Ecosia https://www.ecosia.org/search?q=%s&{ecosia:Referral_ZZ} https://ac.ecosia.org/autocomplete?q=%s&type=list
For the record this happens on both my home pc and work pcs, I can post the urls from my home pc this evening if they are different, will check later.

@DoctorG good thanks

RSS feed is broken in this snapshot?
I can't add youtube channel (videos) page to the Vivaldi Feed, after clicking on the Feed icon I briefly see a page of code and then redirect to the another youtube page:https://www.youtube.com/feeds/...
