Built-in Ad Blocker – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1848.4
-
@Pesala Setting up individual sites has nothing to do with it and yeah, I noticed the button.
This will get interesting as soon as the manifest version 3 restrictions and functionalities are known and later enforced. Could turn out very useful. -
The new Blocker is excellent for a first snapshot. Not perfect, but excellent!
The issue I'm seeing with this snapshot is favicons sometimes show as a blank. Mostly have noticed on Reddit.com and on Walmart.com
Tried a few different stock color schemes, and on 2 PCs, one a Win10 64 bit, the other Linux Mint 19.3 64 bit. Both sites I've tried with all the new block/no block options per site.
Also occurs in a Private window.
Any one else seeing missing favicons for sites in their tabs?
-
Good job Vivaldis!
-
Does anyone else have this? 1848.4 starts with the default Chromium tab (
chrome://newtab
), Vivaldi menu is gone (upon clicking it says[empty]
) and the last session is completely wiped out (along with the closed tabs). -
@pafflick Directly after the update process?
-
@Ornorm I guess so. I've just updated my snapshot installation and I can't get it to work properly
-
@pafflick Thanks for the confirmation (just to know if I could help by reproducing what you did).
Sorry, the update process worked like a charm for me. -
GODS BE PRAISED
-
@vividal: well actually Twitter feed is now broken. Ugh.
-
@electronicboy: For me also it was tampermonkey. Just disable tampermonkey from "manage extensions" and restart Vivaldi. Twitter is working again!
-
@vividal: Disabled Tampermonkey, fixed the problem. It was one of those scripts.
{edit} Re-enabled Tampermonkey, still works. Disabling and enabling it turned out fine. Hm.
-
@Ornorm I think I found the culprit. I've pinned Vivaldi to the taskbar and for reasons unknown, it created a shortcut leading up to this file:
"\Vivaldi Snapshot\Application\vivaldi_proxy.exe" --profile-directory=Default --app-id=mpognobbkildjkofajifpdfhcoklimli
(or it changed itself at some point). Why did it do that - I have no idea. I've pinned it to the taskbar some time ago and it worked fine up until today.
Removing the shortcut and pinning it again seems to have fixed the issue - except for the lost session... -
@pafflick It is an old issue.
-
@electronicboy: Ghostery was breaking twitter for me.
-
@ingeb: Thank you, i have delete few extension and it's ok.
-
@pafflick Good news! Indeed, I felt bad for you that you couldn't discover the tremendous snapshot the team prepared for us.
-
@defcormax: I had the same problem with Ghostery. ABP works fine though.
-
@Pesala It's an old issue but at the same time it's not. Until now there was handling in place to prevent that from occurring, but I was told by a dev that the handling broke in the previous build. A fix should be ready for the next snapshot.
-
@electronicboy: Other sites have the same problem, f.i. I can't play videos from Reddit. I disable a random subset of extensions until it starts working, then I restart the browser and it's broken again. This began happening fairly recently, in the last 2-3 snapshots or so. I switched to stable and everything started working, with all my extensions enabled.

@t0yz: mate, this is a snapshot, it's meant to be broken
Not really. It's for testing new features.
See if that helpsExactly, it's meant for testing new features that might break things, and as you edited, conflicts with 3rd party extensions may occur too.
That's why I'm patient, and wait for stable releases
