Flash Not Enabled or installed?
-
So I was exploring the new snapshot 1.7.704.3 and went to vivaldi://about to confirm I have the new version. Everything looked fine and dandy till when I noticed that Flash is disabled. How long it has.... I don't know. But I do know that music.google.com wasn't working for me during 1.6. So I wanted to see vivaldI://plugins since I think Flash shows up there and doesn't show up. So what up? I don't really mind that Flash is disabled because very few sites use it. Also here is what vivaldI://about looks to me.
Vivaldi 1.7.704.3 (Official Build) dev (64-bit)

Profile Path /home/spane/.config/vivaldi-snapshot/DefaultBTW When I created my account I meant to have the username iWillAlwaysHateTheNewOpera but during trying to squeeze it to fit character limit I removed Hate so, no I do not like the new opera even if it looks like it. I know I can create a new account but I don't feel like it #Lazy

@IWillAlwaysTheNewOpera I think that Google play uses HTML5 MP3 audio not flash.
Assuming Ubuntu
sudo apt update sudo apt install chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra
If you have another distro, read this.
To install Flash (again assuming Ubuntu)
sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu `lsb_release -cs` partner" sudo apt update sudo apt install adobe-flashplugin
If you have another distro, read this.

Worked!
I thought Vivaldi had it pre-installed (Maybe only on windows?) alright well Vivaldi is different!
BTW Sorry I didn't mention Ubuntu.

@IWillAlwaysTheNewOpera
Only IE, Edge and Chrome have Flash built-in. Any other browser will require to have it downloaded. It's a deal MS and Google have with Adobe.
