Stabilization starts for 2.5 – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1525.30

@Ayespy said in Stabilization starts for 2.5 – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1525.30:
In my case, as well, I studiously avoid running any extensions. At all. Ever.
Well do i know & remember that. I trust that you were able to clearly read between the lines when i not-so-cryptically stated
needed was a single Soprano [who uses Extensions] to fire up this candidate.

How can I move all my settings to the stable version from the snapshot version. I thought about it and I will not be using snapshots as my daily driver anymore. This isn't the first time something so obvious completely evaded all internal qa/testing layers (not even going to mention all the bugs that come back every couple of snapshots). I'm scared for my data now.
-
@Dystasia In any case, whichever version you use, you should backup your user data if it is important to you; after all, you might lose your hard drive or you PC one day.
See this article on Full Reset of Vivaldi

@Ayespy I do have one extension installed, but I only noticed the bug after I read some of the posts in this thread.
People get way too excited about non-critical bugs. This one might look ugly, but it not much more than a cosmetic issue; a minor loss of convenience at the most.
-
@pesala: Thank you so much.
-
@Steffie We didn't get this snapshot before you have got it and I didn't have the problems before I restarted the browser after the initial restart on install, basically 10 minutes after someone reported it here and I tried to reproduce it.
The last snapshot we've got from this series was 2.5.1525.9
After that some fixes were cherry picked and probably one was faulty, at least for this branch.Several of the errors are not in the internal version, which is from a different branch, but there are others ...
-
@Steffie This is true, but in no case does a Soprano test a version prior to release. We (and you) all get it at the same time. QA runs some 600,000 automated tests and several in-person tests, but hey - not everything can be tested, especially with virgin builds. And they do have to be tested virgin, because that's the only way to weed out variables. When the devs get a regression report like this one, they test the crap out of it before the next Snapshot release. But that's why anyone and everyone can download and run a snapshot.

@archive1: great tip, thx!
-
@archive1: oops, wasn't aware that issue will be back upon next restart...
-
@TerDale The devs know. We expect this to be addressed soon.
-
@Ayespy OK, thanks. BTW, those pesky icons in address bar re-appear also if you open a tab in a new window, even if not present in the first one. What a mess!
-
@TerDale Let's see what the next Snapshot brings...

Can not reproduce such dead bird crash on telegraf.nl - Win 10x64 1809.
Did you check with a Guest profile to exclude extensions)?

@ytsma may be a GPU driver issue. Do you have latest drivers from chipset/graphcis card manufacturer?
And with Settings → Webpages and Disable the Use of Hardware Acceleration? Crash of tab with dead bird?
