@olli: Still good! Never been that far up front..
~~Can confirm that the dead bird at shutdown doesn't pop up anymore.~~
EDIT: Nope, still there.

@olli Actually I think they were 377126th (coz look what is /post/377126)

@frommhold I must say it’s quite a great achievement given the number of your posts.

Hi Ruarí Ødegaard,

I had updated to stable stream released with RC1 and I do not see this update when I check on the browser. Will it be released later?

@potmeklecbohdan: Admittedly, I'm more of a consumer then creator...

@potmeklecbohdan: My mistake

[Regression] Dead bird shown without crash on closing (VB-63880)

incredible

@reddy-shyam: When we actually release the final you will receive updates. If you want to use RCs from the stable stream in the mean time you need to manually install them.

We cannot enable automatic updates for stable stream RCs yet because it would cause all stable users to upgrade and we would have effectively released.

@ruarí: Ah! Got you, let me do that. Thanks for the prompt reply.

Ruarí

@reddy-shyam: Or if you don't need the listed fixes, you can just wait and you will get the build when we actually update stable, which is likely to be very soon given we are into RC status now.

@pathduck: You noticed the alt text then?

@Pathduck So now instead of seeing dead birds on exit you see this one when you look at the thread of the snapshot in which it was fixed…

Fixing VB-63880 is a good one. I saw it a few (rare) times but never impacted me. Just to show that even the bugs in Vivaldi are "well-behaved"
Good job !

@Pathduck Now for something completely different..That was a silly tv show lol

"[Tabs][Regression] Closed windows lost from trash on browser restart (VB-68347)"

Really? I thought that was W.A.D. Just how long does Vivaldi keep that list of closed windows/tabs?

@gwen-dragon: we collect them from all the people who think they see "dead birds" on exit, when really they are just resting.
