Vivaldi 3.1 RC 1 – Vivaldi Desktop Browser snapshot 1929.23
-
Today’s snapshot is the first release candidate for 3.1 for desktop and notebooks.

Hello, how is the Vivaldi team doing today?
-
As a bonus, there are also pre-release links to equivalent builds for the stable stream…
This is standard now?
-
Wow, it looks like we will have the final version this week
-
@potmeklecbohdan: Maybe... Just something I am trying. We had the builds anyway and I know we are a little late, so I thought some of you might appreciate it.
-
@third: Yeah, that sounds likely. Not least as Vivaldi Android released 3.1 today.
-
Also, always good to get a little public testing of the stable stream before it goes live. There are some differences, e.g. icons, references to stable, on Linux different profiles are used, etc.
-
@ruarí: I can’t wait, 'cause I can’t afford to use snapshots on a working PC, and at the same time I'm in love with new improved notes haha.
-
@third: Use the Stable stream builds I posted above. They either will be the final or are very close (and will update to the final). That is the point of them. For those of you that can't wait.
-
I decide to try the new stable preview, and I was instantly greeted by this:
Notice the emphasis on version 3.0.
-
@altcode: Yeah to be expected. When a stable gets a major number update it tries to pull a URL that serves the latest what's new page. Since we have not yet released 3.1 for desktop the current whats new page is still the 3.0 one. Thus you see this. When we properly release, upgrading users will see the correct page.
-
What you have proved however is that the code to display a whats new page works. This code path is not so frequently tested because it will only happen on stable stream builds that have a major version number bump. Good to know this feature has not regressed and thanks for testing!
-
@Ruarí Gotcha, also I hope that these previews do become a standard. It is indeed very appreciated
-
@altcode: Noted!
-
@Third It seems you’re having your nickname day today

I suspect Olli in disguise
-
@Pathduck Well, I also suspected someone doing this just for fun. What I also don’t understand is the gap registered/first post (5th May/today), but high number of posts today.

@Gwen-Dragon
Or even better yet, fix the issue of dead bird on Vivaldi close in Linux!!
(Sorry, I know this is a long standing issue, not a recent regression) -
@cheekybuddha: This bug is just a visual one : the webview is killed when closing, and so, you see the dead bird which was always behind it.
-
@gwen-dragon: I get the dead bird thing, and its history (coal mines, etc.) but I agree with you. We need something else.
