Nice, first snapshot a day after the official 5.5 release yesterday ..... Oops full Windows crash while installing. After second attempt Vivaldi can't use my profile anymore.....

[Privacy][Settings] Rename the “Do Not Track” section (VB-91985)

In german UI the Settings → Privacy shows a english term "Tracking Prevention"
I will report to tracker.

I wasn't expecting a new Snapshot so soon

[Spatial Navigation] Iframe support (VB-5038)

I still get these kinds of issues when autocompleting searches...

Should I report this or is this still a work in progress?

[Aronand]

@pathduck: Are those perhaps search suggestions from a previous version? I can't reproduce the issue myself anymore in this version

[Pathduck]

@Aronand Hi! No these are search suggestions. I don't think these are cached?

This was in my regular profile, I will test in a clean one...
EDIT: No, same in a clean profile.

Maybe it's just that specific search query?

EDIT: Here's a GIF:

You can see it jumps around which one is selected in the Suggestions.

The results from Wikipedia should be consistent, "Hunter-Gatherer" is always the first result:

$ curl "https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=opensearch&search=hunter+gath"
["hunter gath",["Hunter-gatherer","Hunter Gatherer (album)","Hunter-Gatherers (album)","Hunter Gatherer","Hunter-gatherer diet","Hunter-gatherers of Europe","Hunter-gatherer fitness","Hunter-gatherers of Caucasus","Hunter Guthrie","Hunter G. K. Thompson"],["","","","","","","","","",""],["https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter-gatherer","https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter_Gatherer_(album)","https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter-Gatherers_(album)","https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter_Gatherer","https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter-gatherer_diet","https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter-gatherers_of_Europe","https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter-gatherer_fitness","https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter-gatherers_of_Caucasus","https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter_Guthrie","https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter_G._K._Thompson"]]

[Ruarí]

@doctorg: Just hasn't been translated yet.

[DoctorG]

@Ruarí OK, i thought it was a German UI issue.

[Pathduck]

@Ruarí I thought you were on "holiday"

[DoctorG]

@Pathduck Saw the GIF. Funny – NOT!
I think @Ruarí would never jump dangerously with his unicycle.

All the email account icons are strangely greyed out now.

Stable 5.5

[Mail] vivaldi.net mail oAuth support (VB-89831)

Does this by any way mean we're one step closer to getting 2FA for Vivaldi accounts?

(I didn't see an option to switch to using oAuth on my mail account though).

@AltCode
Hi, I can reproduce this on the Calendar settings page, too.
You can report it as bug, I can verify it in the internal bug tracker.

Cheers, mib

Address bar drop-down remains unfixed (still cycles through unrelated stuff for several seconds).

[DoctorG]

@ender85 Please report issue to Vivaldi tracker if you not already had done.

[ender85]

@DoctorG Done, VB-92185

@ender85
Hi, can you add your OS, search engine and a search string where it happen.
I cant reproduce it with some search terms, I use Google search engine on Linux.

Cheers, mib
EDIT: This was fast but I cant reproduce it with disabled address bar autocomplete.
Will test this on Windows 11.

@ender85 Yes it is crap, better use the Quick Commands feature (F2), it works as supposed to.
