@pegla Similar here, only it doesn't show any wrong behaviour, as you can see in this screen recording. The new tab opens and it's loading properly. This is a regular (not private) window in a clean profile, Vivaldi 5.0.2497.32 (64-bit) on Windows 10 21H2, build 19044.1415. I wonder if there's still some key factor missing here.
//EDIT: I found it! Both tiled tabs need to be opened as foreground tabs. I realized that I always opened the second tab in the background (out of convenience), and when I tiled them, the faulty behaviour never occurred. I wasn't able to reproduce it on any of my old, tiled tabs either (perhaps for the same reason).
Anyway, I updated the bug report to add that missing detail.

@pafflick Well, that is something I would never figure out, since I never open tabs in background if I plan to tile them. But good thinking, who'd knew that that way of doing things can also have different reaction when tiled
-
@pafflick I'm now on 5.0.2497.48 (Stable channel) (x86_64) and I just confirmed the problem persists.
-
@smackesey I'm unable to reproduce that issue anymore in 5.0.2497.48. Please use a fresh profile and see if it occurs there too. For more information, please refer to the Troubleshooting issues guide.

Interesting, I tried in a guest profile and am no longer experiencing the problem. So presumably it's caused by some setting in my profile...

@smackesey
or there's some culprit in your profile - in which case, a reset might be necessary. Anyway, if you manage to find it, please post an update here.//EDIT: see my response below

@pafflick I can reproduce it with the latest snapshot:
(Makes me think someone's working on the "can't open URL/outside links problem...
)But it brings up another
problem: I used Vivaldi's capture to get a visual to show...

1.17 KBThe capture doesn't seem to like tiled tabs! Is this new?
Oh, I see:Capture worked -on the focused tab, and captured its null content!
(Yes, I have set new tabs to open with a blank page! That's what I get for confusing page and browser view...

@oakdaleftl OK, I realized this bug is reproducible only in certain conditions, and it was already discussed in another thread, so I merged them.
For any future reference, it'sVB-73575 Blank tab when opening a link in a tile -
@pafflick Thanks.

Update: Opening the link in a background tab works just fine! 5.2.2581.4 (Official Build) (x86_64)
(Not sure if this is new behavior... A couple of new snapshots have come and gone. Works in 5.1 stable, too. I'm sorry I'd not thought to try this before.) -
