I'm surprised this was an issue three years ago and that there's been no progress on what's literally just an "add bold to date header" fix.
And it's not just a dark theme problem. Here's a comparison between the history sidebar and vivaldi://history/. It's so bad and so easy to fix, I imagine.

@Pesala said in History Menu:
@Aelius Non sequitur.
The OP said that the way history is viewed in Vivaldi is less convenient than having recent history in a dropdown menu like other browsers. Your response was to explain to him that history is accessed via Ctrl+H.
So, either you misunderstood his point (which other posts of yours in this thread make me believe you did not), or you were implying that his request is flawed because history can be accessed via Ctrl+H.
To point out by analogy the flaw in your reasoning, I asked you whether the fact that bookmarks can be accessed via Ctrl+B negates the need for the bookmark dropdown menu. In other words, a reductio ad absurdum.
My Latin is bigger than yours; does that mean I win?
Hi, Thanks for your feature request.

@Noralum Going via the History Tab is the slow way. Use the shortcut for Delete Private Data (default = Ctrl+Shift+Delete) to go directly to the Delete Browsing Data dialog.
Ctrl+A then Delete in the History Panel is best to clear only the browsing history.
@Gregor Currently, right-click menu, Open in background tab works. Ctrl+Click is used for making multiple selections, so that cannot do both jobs. Middle-click would be useful for those with a MMB.

@svguss ah, yes, it also has a "by date and site" grouping. That would be far more useful:

It should be noted that since the UI is part of the closed-source portion of Vivaldi, this is not something I could submit a change for myself. Which is frustrating, because I suspect it is not all that much work to fix this.
I will probably try to see why the closed tab history doesn't observe browser history settings, but I suspect that most of this behaviour will be a black box.
