Cookies policy on FB site
-
Well, I'm running Vivaldi 32 on Win 10 X64, and cannot replicate your symptoms. My cookie behavior is completely as expected, and I don't get any cookie policy popup in facebook. Can't think what to recommend to you.
One other question, perhaps - do you use any extensions?
-
Nope, I don't use any exstension, just standard plugins that comes with instalation.
It looks like FB does not recognize (my) Vivaldi when loging in. Strange. But it does recognize all other browsers I have installed or used before.
And I'm wondering why sticky header problem is happening along with this policy isue. Alegedly this has to do something with CSS for sticky headers. Don't ask me what, I'm not that familiar with it.

Well, afrer todays instalation FB doesn't recognize new device (aka browser). Security notice should be sent to me, as I erased list (entries for chrome dated on 6th june this year) of used devices. It lets me run on vivaldi, but what security info is showing is (see attachment):

Wow. Was your Recognized Devices list always that short? Mine's 50 items long (lots of different computers and browsers, dupes and retired cell phones)
-
This is current situation. I erased all of devices I do not use, and lately also chrome one, which represented Vivaldi (representig engine that runs on). I deleted it, because I wanted to see, if I'll get FB notification about new device after fresh instal of Vivaldi yesterday. Well, nothing happened.
Are devices on your list with it displayed as Vivaldi, or is it chrome? -
They are all called "chrome."

I have exactly the same problem. Besides FB there are also other sites that doesn't save cookies. Also have Windows 7 and Vivaldi x64 browser.
-
Through this time, I checked all that I could and all that I know, but things are as they were before. As well my friends are not using this browser and they're pretty skeptical about it, I cannot get any possible feedback from them. Piity is, that I'm also using Vivaldi less, due to mutilated functionality. I hope this will be solved in some reasonable time, till then Vivaldi will be my second choice. Still it is quite good browser.

Well, I did a comparison between FB cookies stored in FF and in Vivaldi. There are 13 of them in FF and 12 in Vivaldi. One that is missing in Vivaldi is named x-src. Could this be the reason for my problem? What does x-src stand for?

One more change that I noticed in saved cookies for FB. When I check the cookie policy after log in and everything is OK (in current session), there is one more cookie on the list: act (some sort of activation thing?). When I log out and then log in again, this cookie is no longer on list, and cookie policy shows up.
This particular cookie also disapears if I close the browser without loging out of FB. After engaging the browser I'm still loged in, but cookie isn't present anymore.
Strange thing is, that I don't have problems with cookie policy issue on no other site, just on FB. -
Well, I finaly got solution to this problem. By complitelly uninstall the browser and registry entries, I cleared all of the data regarding Vivaldi. Then I performed a new install of browser and loged in normally to FB, I also confirmed cookie policies again. When I log out, there was a notification with my profile picture to log in again (I must say, I have never been offered to this before). So, for the next time, I just have to click on icon with that picture and log in with saved password. It works as it should! But notice that If I try to log in via "usual" way - upper right E-mail and password box, the cookie policy is still there. But nevermind, while "new" way to log in from profile picture is working just fine, I'm good with it.
Maybe this will help someone with similar problem. -
