Take a break – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 2020.3

[iPristy]

@vort: Yeah, that's my point, it's there for what?

Why i can't post in Snapshot, on Windows i just have Snapshot, on Ubuntu i have both.

[LonM]

@Pathduck Yes, I think it was migrated and highlighted find in page results is now the default behaviour

[Pathduck]

@LonM Maybe, just strange there's no mention in the changelog is all. But it's fine. I guess the reason might be for some sites with "hidden" results this might help.

Another new thing that's already been mentioned:

I had a look at this and the class is UrlBar-UrlObfuscationWarning so it can be hidden in custom CSS. But again I assume this is a new Chromium thing they've not removed yet. Because in Vivaldi it shows whether URL obfuscation is enabled or not.

It really doesn't make sense - why would Chromium first hide parts of the domain name, and then warn users about it. Talk about confusing the poor user...

Now, i know you were totally taking the piss here, but...

Nope - honestly!!
Once more Aussies reported similar problems, I just thought "there's a (new) straw to grab"!!

Still in ArcoLinux VM, i returned the Region to Straya, the language to Pommie, logged out/in, relaunched V-SS again from Yakuake... & the damn thing still launched ok. Ergo, whilst i'm damned if i know why it works in this one VM & no where else here, indicatively the Region setting seems non-causal.

UNLESS.... once installed successfully, all is good?

@TbGbe Sit down, breathe steadily, apply mild force to the sides of your head to prevent hyper-inflation, coz...

You, good sir, are looking like a genius!!

Now on my Arch KDE VM, which has had V-SS for mega-yonks, but which has failed to launch it for the current & previous versions. I changed the Region & lingo to Full Pommie, logged out/in, attempted the launch from Yakuake [convinced it would fail], &...

It also launched!!

I see the calendar reference in the cli, so... i wonder...?

---

Just reverted the VM's Region to Straya, logged out/in... & V-SS still launches!

I cannot pretend i even begin to understand, but your other deduction;

also looks like it's on the money! OMZ.

Soooo, that means the time is nigh to try this majik out in my real pooters next...

[Steffie]

@Steffie
Posting this from Tower's 2nd-boot; SolydK. Applied Ye Olde Majik Trick, & voila -- Vivaldi 3.3.2020.3 / Chrome 85.0.4183.80. Next stop: another reboot, back into primary system Arch KDE, to do the deed there...

[TbGbe]

@Steffie

Sometimes it pays to ask stoopid questions

[Steffie]

@TbGbe Back in primary boot Arch now, all Majicked, &... Vivaldi 3.3.2020.3 / Chrome 85.0.4183.80.

I can't thank you enough!

I wonder what the Devs will make of this amazeballs discovery... & which poor widdle ol' fascist country they'll pick on next?

[TbGbe]

@Steffie Just wish everyone had stuck to "good ole" en-GB

[isak]

@ruarí:

[npro]

@Steffie LOL! You had the solution in front of you from the very beginning, gratz for trying that out, though I'm a bit sad that I can't enjoy more of it anymore

[JimTDI]

How do you launch the new "Break" feature?

It's in the blog post,

When triggered via a pause button in the status bar

I'd be happy to use full Pommie in the Plasma Region Settings [given we both fully grasp & honour the correct usage of z, s and u; ahem]. But you peeps then ruin it all by using those crazy pound thingies.

LOL!

I'll get you, Penelope Pitstop, i'll get you!!

spoiler >>

Before first launching after update, set your locale to en_AU /s

[Steffie]

@potmeklecbohdan That's extremely mean of you!!

[JimTDI]

I'm not seeing that break button after re-re-reading the blog post.

Maybe it's becaause I added a dog-face thing a while back that displays the "V" version/Chrome Version?

For me it's on left hand side, next to "sync cloud".

[JimTDI]

@TbGbe for me I just have the panel toggle, and the Sync Cloud.
