Snapshot 1.0.385.5 - Changes to tab opening and closing behaviour
-
I'm in the same boat, unfortunately. When they fixed it many months ago last year, it was perfect. But a few snapshots ago last month, it broke again. I hope they fix this for the next snapshot.

FYI:
Well I don't know if I agree. Everything I've read on their WHITE PAPER (have you?) tells what they have done? Also in 30 + years I've had every defrag ever made out there,
I appreciate your concern "Dude" but do you know what enterprise and businesses use it and what steps they took to alleviated the wear problem, normally I would agree. I tested before wear levels before and after it is NOT standard defrag.
Made specific for SSD's that's why I waited for three years for them to come up with a solution. I trust them to know FAR more than I do about SSD's. How did you come to the conclusion ALL OO software is crap? And I NEVER auto-load or auto-RUN ANYTHING. It seemed to help out mine and so I surmised that it got the topsites file to stop thrashing, was throwing it out there for others to try/and or think of. -
Dude, DO NOT DEFRAG SSD disks! it's useless and, well… damages SSDs (as every write cycle = damage). The impression of improvement was false.
Also OO Defrag is crap software that damages SSDs even more (by autoscheduling defrags on computer idle) and can lead to random crashes (at least the version I've used). (Actually all OO software is crap).
PS:
I got this from product manager next day WITH an explanation below. I would have a HARD TIME calling top level, next day support, from executive in another country CRAP. Actually I wish all were so proficient. I posted this for all to read and maybe figure this may be one problem of memory etc.
We still advise against extensive defragmenting of SSDs because in addition to not really improving their performance, it has a negative effect on wear levelling and this results in a shortening of an SSD’s life span.
There are, however, occasionally some cases of extreme file fragmentation: loads of fragmented files with thousands of fragments. Along with the negative effect on performance this may have, extreme file fragmentation may cause the file’s NTFS to reach the maximum number of fragments possible. This means that such a file will no longer be able to grow. According to our customers, this can lead to apparently inexplicable negative results such as failure to access the database. These very highly fragmented files are also frequently written upon by temporary Internet files, log files, or the Outlook mailbox. This frequent write access on a highly fragmented file can also have a negative effect on performance, especially on lower-priced SSDs.
As a result of this, we received requests by a number of corporate customers to develop a special file optimization for SSDs. The solution we’ve come up with defragments especially affected data and follows this with a TRIM Pass. This defragmentation has been specially adapted for SSDs and is therefore optimized to cause the least possible load on wear leveling. On the other hand, files that are only slightly fragmented or have a particular fragment structure are ignored, providing they have no negative influence on the SSD’s performance and the file system.
I hope this response has been helpful. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Currency Converter (Google Chrome extension) stopped working correvtly - when I type a number, say 3, it must be converted into several selected currencies, but instead it switches the focus to #3 Vivaldi tab.

Vivaldi probably has the best vision of all browsers. But performance is such a huge let down that I am starting to doubt that things will change anytime soon if ever. It only takes a few minutes of using chrome or opera for one to notice what a huge advantage those have over Vivaldi in terms of snappiness.
I've been long wondering about this. On my platform, Vivaldi is snappy! At least as fast as Google Chrome, Firefox, and Safari. I'm using a MacBook Pro from 2013, and Mac Mini and MacBook Air from 2014, all with OS 10.11.3.
What's going on? Is Mac special in this regard? Or, perhaps your machines are so devastating fast that you notice differences that are small on my machines?

If you have multiple monitors and Vivaldi is running full screen on one, that is probably exactly what most people want. The task manager appearing in another window.
Yes! But what if you are using only one screen? Currently the full-screen Vivaldi opens the Task Manager full-screen and as a result the Task-Manager window becomes a new "page" next to the Vivaldi's "page." (I don't know the official Mac terminology for "page". I hope you understand what I mean. In my original post, I called it "desktop". I didn't mean other monitor.)
The full screen mode is extremely useful even on a single monitor. You swipe your fingers on the track pad to move to the "next" or "previous" full screen app, as you do on a tablet or smart phone.
I can't experiment now with multiple monitors and I forgot exactly what happened when I wrote my original message. What does Vivaldi do in that case? Put Vivaldi into the full-screen mode (not Vivaldi's but OS's native fullscreen mode) and open the Task Manager. Does it go to the other monitor?
P.S. Vivaldi doesn't allow me to edit my own post. Click on the "Edit" icon and nothing happens. I'm revising this post of mine on Firefox.

Aha! I didn't know that or suspect it. I've just confirmed that you are right. Thank you for your help!

Why am I getting downvotes? I don't think what I wrote is offensive or false or rude. Folks, tell me how I should improve what I wrote.

stop caring about votes :p
How many tabs do you have opened? Do you use web panels? Do you use and have many of Notes/Downloads/Bookmarks? How about extensions?
Each of these may help you to notice the difference.
I have much more powerful machine than you and Vivaldi isn't smooth. OS shouldn't make noticable change so the only thing I can think of is just how do you and me use the browser.
Using clean profile is much more snappier than my current profile.

Perfect analogy … It just feels lifeless

I would like sorting as you describe as an option.

Could you guys please add "Add Page to Bookmarks" option to the right click menu when we are in a page? It's handy for users that don't use address bar.
I like this.
And would be cool to indicate somehow the directory hierarchy when we choose where save the bookmark in its dropdown menu. The folders could be indicated as bold font or another visual way, to distinguish from bookmarks themselves.
Isn’t this the way it is currently? Right now in the drop-down only folders are listed? I'd love it if they were nested, or listed alphabetically, or auto-complete worked on them to make it much easier to find the proper place to place the bookmark.
