Hi, is spatial navigation broken on github? I can move on links, but I can't open any, using the ENTER key...
Try here, for instance: https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet

@newscpq works for me
-
I'm just asking. Wasn't it worth to wait maybe 2-3-4 days with releasing stable 3.0 and implement at least the fixes which were causing crashes or some other critical issues found in latest RC?

Taken due some strange adblocker hangs with this forum. I overloaded the blocker for testing. If I find a pattern I'll cast a VB :3
English squid list seems to be unavailable. I removed it
@enc0re This version is what is used to be called "Post [3.0] Snapshot". I fear they soon have to work on chromium 83.

@enc0re I think if they didn't tell us last Thursday that they have something for us this Wednesday, they would wait.

twitter still takes too long to load. including my Isp involvement. loads better on android.

I think there's something wrong with the date in the clock. I see "23 233 Apr 233".

@RSD This is a known bug being worked on
-
@lonm: I sure do hope ISO8601 is finally being implemented

Not sure if its the right place to report adblocker site specific issue but here it goes. Sorry it is not , if then please guide me to.
I am using built in ad blocker with easylist, but when I visit https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/ website, inner pages will all show alert asking me to disable ad blocker. Works well with uBlock Origin. Any other list I need to import to make this work with internal blocker please?

Hi @luetage, thanks for getting back and tring to help. If you click and access a link on the homepage, you will see the adblocker notice. I have already tried the filter you have given me but with no joy. Also tried the uBlock Origin filters, still no good.

I have the problem that certain settings/categories do not show up in the Snapshot's settings page, e.g. Updates. I suppose my settings somehow got corrupted. Is there a way to fix this without loosing my current settings?

That's always a hard thing to judge.
Not everyone uses the snapshots. And not every user that uses the snapshots provides bug reports. So there aren't as many users testing that help discover problems. And a lot of times 'bugs' are user errors, so it can be hard to diagnose a problem if there is only one user reporting an issue. And different users have different hardware configurations, use different extensions and different operating systems.
So some bugs aren't known or reproducible until many more people start using the new version in a stable release. Or, a bug that seems like a rare occurrence in the snapshot version ends up being reproduced by a lot of people in the stable version.
And the new stable version does provide important security updates. At what point do you hold back on a release because it has a usability issue, but leave users exposed to a particular security flaw?
No software will be perfect and bug free. But updates do need to come out at some point. It is a difficult balance to determine when an update is good enough to release.
