Bug: Bookmarks Open In Multiple Windows
-
There is a bug in version 2.1.1337.36 (Stable channel) (64-bit) on Linux, and in other recent versions.
Opening a bookmark from the drop-down bookmarks bar results in that bookmark being opened in several other Vivaldi windows though not necessarily in all. Furthermore in some windows the bookmark will often be opened in two new tabs, while in the active widow it will be opened in just one new tab.
Please note that it only happens when selecting a bookmark from within the drop-down folders. Singleton bookmarks on the bookmark bar do not cause the problem, nor do bookmarks opened from the side panel or from the full-page bookmark view.
Speed Dial bookmarks cause the problem when opened from their drop-down folder but do not when they are opened by clicking on their thumbnail on the Start Page.
It is very inconvenient, and effectively means the drop-down folders are unusable.

Several Vivaldi releases later and this bug has still not been fixed.
For those of us who usually have several Vivaldi windows open at any one time - I currently have 8 open - this bug is a major annoyance and makes the bookmarks bar UNUSABLE !!
Please put some person hours into fixing this bug, it's a real pain.
Thanks.
