Using Settings → Appearance, selecting each menu from dropdown and using 'Restore Default menu' is not very easy.

I think it is fine. If it is too easy to do, people will be losing their changes by accident. As long as we can reset each individual menu, and not all or none, that is fine.

Am I, perchance, the only one who now gets two Vivaldi icons, or shortcuts, in my task bar with this update? If I click on the usual shortcut as well as the now active one I have two Vivaldi browsers open.
By the way, is plural Vivaldi Vivaldis or Vivaldies?

luetage

@Rainspa The plural is Vivaldi.

Thank you, a blank moment there, nothing looked quite right as I typed it.

... menu for page context ...

This is the most basic thing.

Typing more than 3 letters in history search field freezes the browser and stops working (hard reset needed).

I have noticed that full history searches are really slow, more than I can remember them. Even on my relatively fast machine (i7 4790k) with a SSD drive it locks up for several seconds, sometimes 10s or more. I can only imagine how it would be on an older slow laptop for instance.

I usually don't notice because I save "only" 3 months of history and only search in the panel within the last week or so.

Did you get a confirmation on VB-72185? Given the number I assume this is something new in 3.3?

What size is your History file in your profile? Mine is about 73MB and haven't really seen a change in this area (not fast, but not that slow).

Not that the size of the History file is necessarily the key. I remember the old problem I found (still exists) when suddenly as of a certain version (circa 1.15), paging through your list of bookmarks was noticeably slow when it used to be all but instant. It turns out that it's not the size of the Bookmarks file but rather the Favicons file, which is why to this day I periodically overwrite it with a smaller version.

Will the context menu customization support custom search as possible menu options?

Popup thumbnails seem to be broken

Gosh, this new bug is constantly catching me out today. Despite knowing before i updated [via your alert here], AND despite still knowing it post-update, somehow i'm still myriad times moving my pointer into a tab-stack, or otherwise individual tabs, then recoiling at the non-popup.... then minutes later it repeats, d'oh.

Big Yellow Taxi or what!

I luuuurve that i no longer need to go into the chromium settings for this:

Known issue since a few snapshots back. To fix it:

Open Vivaldi.
Right-click and unpin the icon which does not go to your open Vivaldi window.
Right-click and pin the open Vivaldi window.

@pathduck: Seconding that about page context menu. I would've expected that it was going to be the next thing, but apparently it's not. Well, when it comes, it comes.

I didn't get any response for this bug report yet. I guess it's new, I noticed it for last 2 (maybe 3) snapshots. Never had these kind of problems before (didn't change pc hardware).
I posted these problems with history a week ago:

opening history page is slow
searching in history is very slow
typing more than 3 letters freezes the browser (hard reset needed)
changing history setting from 6 months to 3 months doesn't delete old history entries (even after restart)
deleting it manually doesn't get history file smaller

Mine is 20MB, but it doesn't get smaller if I change history setting for example from 6 months to 3 months and even If I delete history entries manually.

Hi, maybe the history file is corrupted, if you don´t care about delete it manually in your default directory or move it to a save place.
Path is published in File > Help > About

Cheers, mib
EDIT: Please close Vivaldi before moving/deleting Vivaldi files.
