Sending/Syncing Tabs between devices not working
-
@patrickweiden Yeah it's super frustrating, especially because, at one time, it worked GREAT. I just don't get how it was so thoroughly broken.
-
@brianrubin: Me neither. Just wondering about and if someone (@DoctorG) could find out more details about the problem, this would be very interesting (at least for me)...
-
FYI: VB-86341: "Send to your devices" option doesn't work - Vivaldi dev said that was removed by Chromium devs from Chromium core
Sad.

Very very ... very sad.
@DoctorG: Can you please ask back why then e.g. Brave still has the feature? I do not think that Brave has a different "basis" for syncing than Vivaldi has - but I do not know (just assuming - hence wondering)...

Interesting thing is if you go to the Sync Node Browser tab in vivaldi://sync-internals you can see the tabs have been received by the device. There's just something blocking them from being displayed
Come on Vivaldi team, you've got a great product here, why aren't you prioritising this one bug that's messing up with everyone's day to day flow?

VB-86341 reopened, dev was assigned, he will check when spare time if it can be added again and is not too complicated.
We hope the best.

Thank you very much for this!
-
@patrickweiden Yes, i miss the feature too, was so nice to send tabs from my Android to my Windows/Linux Desktop or vice-versa.
-
@kserko Is this...hope? I'm almost afraid to consider it
-
Hey y'all just checking in. Anyone know if there's been any update on this?
-
@brianrubin Not yet.
-
@brianrubin: Nothing new I know of. Maybe @DoctorG?
-
Bad, that Chromium removed this feature, and Vivaldi devs have to patch workaround.
@brianrubin No progress at this time for a fix.
-
@DoctorG Hey I'm thrilled it's being worked on. Thank you!
-
Hi, any updates on this?
I really don't wanna change my browser just because of this. -
So friends, I've been using the reading list to supplant this sync functionality and it's been working rather well. I highly suggest it as an alternative for the time being while they hopefully fix the sending tabs issue.

Hi, you can always use the cloud icon right top on desktop and the same in the tab viewer on Android to show open tabs on other devices. Not as comfortable as "Send to" but work.Cheers, mib
