Seen it especially on this blogs comment paging. Mainly since the last update. (MacOSX and Windows 7 64bit)

Have you tried Vivaldi? I was skeptic about using blink as well? But Vivaldi is already much better than Chrome. Vivaldi has been my default browser since the first tech preview (replacing Chrome, used Opera for years).
-
I think not implemented yet, mis it every time I try to open a new tab. Sorry, my replies keep disappearing. I have tried to reply to you before.

No there are no chances of that. Presto is Opera's property. They decided to kill it and it has not been made open-source.
I am afraid, it prevents to reach functionality of original Opera, since from my point of view, that functionality is tightly links to the engine - Presto. So the only way to create a functional analogue of Opera browser is to create a functional analogue of Presto. Just like for similar reasons Unix fork BSD was born. I don't think it is possible to emulate all classic Opera browser functionality under much simpler engine. Actually we all clearly see that in Chrome Opera project. Do we need another clone of Chrome?

Perform that gesture multiple times a day, without effect.

Anyone?

The left-click + drag down mouse gesture to open a new tab has not been working for me since release (left-click + down-right works fine). Is this a bug or just not implemented yet?

- Watch out for VB-3939 in changelogs.
- I did state this. But you are welcome to report specific scenarios that are particularly slow. Just general "Vivaldi is too slow" comments don't add any value.
- will be fixed in next version
- They are working for me so I guess next build should be fine. Speak up if it isn't.
- I'm following up on this internally.
-
Yes, Vivaldi needs to closed when updating. We know about this issue.
-
A lot of mine disappeared, too. There seems to be a bug…
-
Confirmed.

I use it on and off almost from the first preview and I compare it with classic Opera (Presto). Not impressive. It's slower, than original Chrome, but way far from Presto-based Opera in terms of functionality. I don't think, it's a reasonable price. Blocking was pretty useful for many overloaded by ads sites, but I don't think it could be possible under Chromium engine. In 2003 or 2004 somebody asked me how many tabs in my Opera. I counted and was surprised - there were more, than 400 tabs in 4 windows (under FreeBSD 4.7, as I remember). That is the power of Presto-based Opera. It's extreme, of course, but it shows the potential. What is potential for Blink? And what can you expect for loaded by additional functions Blink-browser? Go figure…
I respect people, who work under Vivaldi, but I am pretty skeptical about the project under Blink engine. It's just another "shell", nice make up, not breakthrough...

I reported it internally.

Great. I just told you that I reported it - and this comment is gone, too… :roll:
-
I'm trying hard to let you know that I reported this internally, but my comments ironically disappear again and again… :roll:

Great reply, I definitely agree on the memory consumption with a great amount of tabs. Used to keep many tabs open in my browser. Unfortunately for my line of work I was unable to keep using Opera 12. Using blink would not mean the Vivaldi team cannot optimise or handle some content differently.
I feel it would still be possible to load plugins on demand, or keep a previous page state (filled in forms) when making additions to blink.

I've tested the 64-bit version of the latest build with Win 8.1 x64 and I can't complain about anything. Vivaldi runs great without any problems for me; great job guys!:)
If I am to suggest one minor addition: The current bookmark bars offers the possibility to display bookmarks either as text-only or with favicon+text. It would be really great (and I think easy to implement) if there was an option for favicon only.
Keep up the great work!:D
