@Ruarí nice

second
, just seconds
-
Opening a new tab, start page fails for me, no speed dial but a message:
An error occurred
Please consider reporting the issue to help us fix it
Edit: It is something in VivaldiHooks, nevermind. It's not caused by normal Vivaldi operations.
-
Nice!
That picture, is that where @Ruarí sleeps at night? Up a tree to be safe from the wolves
-
about the pic: @Ruarí you know, bears can climb up trees, so your monocycle isn't safe there
(or in other words: tell us the story behind this pic!)
-
@Pathduck Just a picture from a recent ride. Since we branched to stablise, I thought it was a funny joke to hang it from a branch... but... maybe it was just silly.
-
@derDay Just a picture I took on a recent ride
I thought it was funny because "branch point" but it might just be that my humor is poor.

@Ruarí It's a very nice picture, it reminded me I need to get out skiing one day while the snow lasts. Impressive going up to Linderudkollen by unicycle now!
As for regressions - I hope we can get a fix for the no focus on URL bar on start of the browser. I thought it had been fixed on last Snapshot but only for new windows it appears. Not that I have a big problem with it, it's just a quick Alt+D after all, but frustrating for new users expecting to be able to start typing once the browser launches.

If the mail client is going to be released in 3.6 it would good to fix
(VB-75439) Order of Panel Icons Does not Match Order in Settings
The increased number of items on the Trash Can makes it difficult to clear the list, as one now has to remember the shortcut or scroll down to the bottom of the list.
(VB-75088) Closed Tab List is Too Long
(VB-73287) Report a Bug Opens the Vivaldi forum is still causing problems: This user was baffled why the menu item directs users to the forum and not to the Bug Report wizard, or the Help Topic on reporting bugs.

@pesala: Mail won't be released as final for 3.6. It is still considered TP

[Settings][Panels] Lazy Loading option (VB-75737)
Care to explain this one? I thought panels were always "lazy loading"?
EDIT: Oh now I get it, if the user can spare the memory (~50MB/panel) they can be fully loaded on startup if option is unselectedUse page title for URLs dragged to desktop (VB-3716)
That's a Really nice fix! Forums get a lot of complaints on this one, finally it can be sorted, well done to the devs
-
Use page title for URLs dragged to desktop (VB-3716)
I just learned that I can do this
Nearly broke my head a few days ago trying to figure out how to save a URL as a shortcut to the desktop.

A nokia camera? Is that a time travelling unicycle?
-
Last Snapshot, some people noted a lot of missing KB/MG shortcuts. Still ditto with this Snapshot.
This bug only manifests in a new/clean profile; when continuing to use one's existing profile, if you had those enabled before [eg, MGs to scroll to page top/bottom], they're still there now. Not so in the virgin profile.
-
Obviously this should be removed anytime now.

vivaldi://about/ has macOS 11 as the beta number 10.16 (it is correct in stable builds, not in the snapshots)

Chromium is targeting version 88 for the removal of Flash Player support

@Chas4 But...
The V Devs do not have to keep this setting extant in their V [not Chromium] Settings page, as far as i can see, regardless of the lethargy of the Chromium Devs.
