      Whilst i slept, did someone at least solve the OT / chitchat conundrum?

      Also, who was that Bad Person again who so confidently posted yesterday in this very thread that we were getting our new snappie in about two hours? [Rhetorical question; i know who it was, & they're OFF my xmas card list now].

        As you can see, the answer is no. 😀

        BTW, while you slept, everybody else left. 😅

          That's most odd -- usually that's the effect whenever i arrive anywhere.

            @Steffie The effect happens here too. Right now, it doesn't look like a Madonna concert…

                                  @hlehyaric Yes exactly, that's what @npro & i meant... it feels "uncomfortable" IMO. Yes i know, i know, one "solution" is to never ever ever go OT in any way, then the "public gaze" becomes irrelevant. However tbh that's boring & dry. I honestly do not see why tech fora cannot be simultaneously techie, helpful, fun & warm with bonhomie & camaraderie... but it should be "sheltered".

                                    @Steffie It's after reading @npro's post that I went to see. You're definitively right: only comments from users who post specifically there should be showed there.

                                    never ever ever go OT in any way

                                    Rather drastic, isn't it? Far too drastic.

                                      Given i was not able to update my Snapshot today after all to chromium 87 😭, in my sulking i decided to instead update my Chromium to 87 😜. Then i explored its Flags for anything of interest. I found these [i am not saying that all of these came only with 87, in fact i know for certain some didn't. I've highlighted those that interested me that i'd not noticed before].

                                      Tab Groups Auto Create
                                      Automatically creates groups for users, if tab groups are enabled. – Mac, Windows, Linux, Chrome OS

                                      Tab Groups Collapse Freezing

                                      Enable 'New' badge on menu items

                                      #enable-new-badge-on-menu-items
                                      
                                      Enable user data snapshots
                                      Enables taking snapshots of the user data directory after a Chrome update and restoring them after a version rollback. – Mac, Windows, Linux
                                      #enable-user-data-snapshot
                                      
                                      Edit passwords in settings
                                      Enables password editing in settings. – Mac, Windows, Linux, Chrome OS, Android
                                      #edit-passwords-in-settings
                                      

                                      In conjunction with these slightly older ones:

                                      Tab Groups
                                      Allows users to organize tabs into visually distinct groups, e.g. to separate tabs associated with different tasks. – Mac, Windows, Linux, Chrome OS
                                      #tab-groups
                                      
                                      Tab Groups Collapse
                                      Allows a tab group to be collapsible and expandable, if tab groups are enabled. – Mac, Windows, Linux, Chrome OS
                                      #tab-groups-collapse
                                      
                                      Tab Hover Cards
                                      Enables a popup containing tab information to be visible when hovering over a tab. This will replace tooltips for tabs. – Mac, Windows, Linux, Chrome OS
                                      #tab-hover-cards
                                      
                                      Tab Hover Card Images
                                      Shows a preview image in tab hover cards, if tab hover cards are enabled. – Mac, Windows, Linux, Chrome OS
                                      #tab-hover-card-images
                                      

                                      ...it now means that Chromium's native Tabs Management has become quite impressive. Some of us [in an older thread that today i entirely failed to locate, & in which almost certainly i should have posted this post] noted that it was too laborious to create tab groups manually with their earlier subset of Tabs flags. However with the ones i've newly found today [notably #tab-groups-auto-create which works elegantly, automatically, as described] Chromium feels every bit as competent as Vivaldi when its auto tab-stacking is enabled.

                                      For me as a tab "Verticaller" [& limiting my comment solely to tab management, not the entire browser holistically], Chromium remains unattractive compared to Vivaldi. However if/when Chromium eventually also provides a good vertical tabs option, & if Vivaldi's sought-after tabs management improvements still have not materialised by then, IMO Chromium would be a real threat. 😱

                                        @Steffie This could only means the chrome developers also lurk these forum and some of them also use vivaldi 😃
                                        But they also like betray users dropping gold standards as vertical tabs due "low usage" (seriously, why?)

                                          The comments in the blog need to be "disonnected" from the forums, and if it is not possible, the blog should not have comments at all. What is being said in the blog is just an announcement, for the press and outsiders, if you want to comment then use the forums, that's how it should be. It would be nice to hear what @Gaëlle thinks of that, and if not someone with obvious better english skills than me to make a request thread in the forum feedback with summarizing all the above concerns. 👍

                                            @npro The blogs on vivaldi.net already do have their own commenting system.

                                            I'm not sure why it is turned off for vivaldi.com's blogs, and why that runs a separate connection to the forum. I always found that a bit strange and I never understood the rationale.

                                            I don't think it is wise to turn of comments for the whole vivaldi.com blog as blogs like information/news/tips/full releases do benefit from people being able to discuss them.

                                            If you want to chit-chat privately, you can always do that in the Chit-Chat subforum or in a direct message 🙂
