Oh, and while we are at it, please stop acting like a dictator (by locking and moving threads, etc.). That isn't helpful to the people who come here for help.
Hi,
Just read:
ModerationYou did not even read about the posted message explainig the reasons for Moving and Locking.

There is such a thing as etiquette. If I post in the Vivaldi for Windows forum (which is where I should have posted it), you can just tell me that it is being discussed elsewhere. As a moderator, you might want to try being polite and accommodating.
Now, please return the functionality that has been removed from the program -- or get in touch with the people who will do it.

This is afecting the Engine, which means is a Desktop environment, not just Windows, so the right place is Desktop.
The Download Behavior is related to Vivaldi Team, not Moderators.

Politeness please. How am I supposed to know it belongs in the Desktop forum? I have Vivaldi for Windows; when I have a problem with it, I will always post in the Vivaldi for Windows forum. You are being purposely obtuse.

I agree, I save loads of images all the time, and whenever they have names like "image.jpg", I run the risk of overwriting each previous image with the next one.
Plus, a window opening with (1) is a quick way to check whether I already downloaded an image, without having to navigate my download folder and finding the image. -
I created a forum account explicitly to complain about the loss of this behavior. +1 to the feature request from me.
I largely stopped using vivaldi when the context menu blew up in size to the point it required a scroll bar. I just found the helpful tips from commenters on the release announcement how to return the context menu to a reasonable size (as well as revert the floating tab-buttons). Big thank you to everyone sharing where to find those options.
It really is maddening having to dig through the options and set my configs again every time there's a UI change (I also have to keep turning form autofill/suggestions off), and infuriating to have established behavior just disabled without even an option.

I also vote for a toggle option. This change not only affects "Save Link As" but also when saving images (both using "Save image as" and Ctrl+S when images are on its own tabs). This is a severe usability issue in the cases mentioned above.
Btw, another toggle for unique names when saving pages would be a nice thing too, imo.
-
I agree.
We need an option to let users choose whether or not to rename. -
-
@DoctorG Yeah, Vivaldi listened to the needs of both halves of the world, now it's both possible to rename and not rename when a file is saved, depending of personal taste and needs.
Thanks Vivaldi Team. -
yayyyyyyy
