When bookmarked, title for the exact link is missing in "Brave Search" as compared to "Google Search" or "Duckduckgo Search". Why?

I don't see same issue with other chromium based browsers including Opera.
Reported this issue almost 1 and half year ago to your telegram group and twitter channel via DM but seems issued raised from user side are generally disregarded.
Does dev and vivaldi users see the difference when "https://search.brave.com" and "https://search.brave.com/search?q=vivaldi+browser&source=web" is bookmarked in terms of title, if user decides to revisit bookmarked links through search feature within "vivaldi://bookmarks/"?
And this issue is generally with vivaldi and not limited to desktop or mobile.

@LoneRanger12 I can confirm this.
Please report issue to Vivaldi bug tracker. Once that is done, share the bug number (beginning with VB-). Thanks for helping us making Vivaldi better.

Salut @LoneRanger12
Vivaldi don't use <title> tag to complete bookmark data if <meta property="og:title" content="xxx"> is used in the page code.
As you can see, Brave Search use <meta property="og:title" content="Brave Search"> for all Brave Search pages results. they will be named "Brave Search" in Vivaldi bookmarks by design.
Perhaps Brave Search can make <meta property="og:title" content="xxx"> identical to <title>xxx</tiltle> content ?
-
@LoneRanger12 Not a bug in Vivaldi. Vivaldi uses correctly HTML head content of web page.
Please contact webmaster of Brave Search, they need to fix their HTML element meta og:title.

@DoctorG perhaps a specific UserJS or an extension could remove the useless og:title on these sites and keep <title> tag only?
-
@ra-mon Could be, but depends on when the meta extraction kicks in Vivaldi.
I was told:Vivaldi browsers order to detect meta data for bookmark generation
meta[property=og:title] or document.title or document.location
meta[property=og:description] or meta[name=description]
https://forum.vivaldi.net/post/661722Now how to decide which is less important, which is the correct information, the <title> or the <meta>!?

@DoctorG Sometimes I wonder if vivaldi deliberately tries to cross cancels issues to avoid resolution or I am using their service too much that I don't notice same behaviour in other chromium browsers such as chrome, brave, opera, edge or any you name it.
What @ra-mon and @DoctorG has to say here?
Should I mail all of them for same as I did to brave team back ago?
-
@DoctorG Vivaldi browser isnt able to extract title and consider same as domain site and search done through that site as same.

Fine. I do not know how these browsers work in extracting meta data.
And i am not interested in reading complaints, when user do not report bugs to bug tracker.
I gonna check the next days your bug report you sent to tracker for all wrong bookmark creation URLs you report.
Have a nice day

I've already answered your (many and repetitive) complaints on Telegram. Let me avoid duplicates.
