Crazy very first again

As usual, I lost the URL to my signature note. I thought this bug was fixed.

I deleted the note, and created a new one. Let's see if it disappears again on the next update.

Similar, but not identical to:

3rd or whatever... can we have ability to move tab to another profile window back? i rely on this sometimes

Reposting this (last comment for the previous snapshot)
Not sure if this qualifies as bug, nor if it's the expected behaviour.
If I open a new tab when in certain workspace, the new tab opens in that workspace.
If I open a new browser window, use it, then close it and return to the said workspace in my primary window, it's the same.
That changes though, after I open a saved session in a new window. When I'm done with that session, and close the window, upon returning, all new tabs are opened in the 'Start Page' workspace, and not in the workspace I'm in. When I go to the newly created workspace and close all tabs there, the browser crashes.
After restart, it works as expected - new tabs open in the workspace I'm working in.
Can someone please confirm that open-session-in-a-new-window bug is valid?

@Kocho It's already reported as VB-96171. There was a lot of work to make Sessions compatible with Workspaces, and not everything works perfectly yet. Sorry for the trouble.

@pafflick: Thanks! There hasn't been an issue that stopped me from using snapshots as my day to day browser The only recent problem I noticed is that I am not able to share screen in Google Meet, but I guess that's just Google not being evil

I'm unable to retrieve the Debian update, apt is reporting errors from the repo server. It thinks there's a mirror sync in progress? I removed the SHA512 info.

@Omnimaxus
Hi, does this meant your settings window is transparent?
Work as usual with several installs on Windows and Linux:

Check this in a clean profile, rename your profile folder or create a test profile.

@edwardp @cheekybuddha Try now. Seems like it was a problem with one of the old meta data files being cached. I have cleared the cache again.

You may need to run apt update again first.

Many thanks @Ruarí.

All good now! Updated!
