Vivaldi constant freezing
-
@Gwen-Dragon:
The team is working hardly on a fix becuse this problem has to be fixed before next Beta.
That's good news, considering Vivaldi is closing in on Beta 3, probably this month I'm guessing. So it'd be great if this issue was fixed by then.
Opera has just fixed this issue on freezing/crashing in Windows 10, so it looks like it was a Chromium problem, but I don't know if they've released this fix to the Chromium code or their own. Probably their own, but I hope it isn't so. Opera Beta has it, and now it just released to their stable channel as well, so I'm able to enjoy that on Opera 35, and it hasn't froze or crashed once.

I have the same issue in a macbook pro 2019

@davidgarciasantes Please start a new topic. It is not appropriate to post a new Mac problem on a Windows thread four years old.

It's been four years and I still have the freezing issue on windows 10. Disabling all the addons doesn't help either. Single tab or multi it freezes frequently. Is there any way I can dig in this issue more?

Some user report freezing with latest version if they use black/dark theme, check with default. Check with a guest profile or create a new for testing.
Vivaldi never freeze for me since 5 years, Windows, Linux on different hardware but I donยดt use extensions and third party anti virus software on Windows.
Avast make big problems since years, for example.Cheers, mib

@Gwen-Dragon yes I use Dark Theme everywhere. I will report a bug ASAP. Thanks
@mib2berlin I have tested with new profile & all other options are suggested by vivaldi but didn't help.

I can confirm, since the latest update Vivaldi is freezing when I open YouTube. This only happens if I use the dark theme or black as a color. For now I',m using the theme "Vivaldi" and everything works fine.
My advice for anyone who uses the dark theme and can't change settings because it freezes instantly.
Close Vivialdi, as soon as it starts loading try to close the tab YouTube or the page which causes the freeze, you have to be really fast. Then use the Theme "Vivaldi".Vivaldi 3.6.2165.34 (Stable channel) (64-Bit)

@IWSNX Thanks you for your information.
I have started to use Vivaldi theme. I will test for few days. Once I'm confirm that the problem is with the dark mode. I will report a bug.
@Gwen-Dragon What does it mean by "This is a new issue, but already known to developers and is investigated."?
If it's already known to developers why should I report a bug?
If you please elaborate a little bit. -
@Gwen-Dragon version 3.6.2165.36 release note refers that the dark mode freezing issue has been resolved, but it seem that Vivaldi is freezing brutally on Facebook's Dark mode. It's not happening with facebook's white mode.
I wanted to know is this bug known to developers or I should report a bug? -
Just started using Vivaldi and I'm getting it freezing, often on Youtube but haven't used it enough to be sure where and when yet. If this has been going on as long as this thread suggests I can't see me continuing the experiment with it.

Hi, this happen for some user randomly, for me only on a Linux box with Intel iGPU UHD 620.
All my other Windows 11 and Linux install are working fine.
A restart of Vivaldi should fix this immediately, I know this is a bad workaround but we have a confirmed bug report VB-91427.
These issues are hard to fix, happen for some user sometimes.Cheers, mib
