Same old New Window now opens faster – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 3062.3

no. i DO want to receive new feeds for all my configured rss channels, but i only want to get each one ONCE, not two or three times [& this is a very long-term vivaldi bug; sometimes the necro-fetching [ie, the undesired fetching of the 2nd or 3rd copy] happens days or weeks or maybe even months later.
I cannot say for definitely sure, but this looks like a problem with specific feeds. This happens when the unique feed entry ID changes. Some websites use the URL as their ID (thereby committing to never changing it, according to the Atom and RSS standard), but then sometime down the line, they decide to change the URL. Maybe they added or removed .html or / from the URL for vanity, or restructured their website in some way. Under these circumstances, feed readers will duplicate feed items as the old items with new IDs will appear as new.
(There could of course be a bug in Vivaldi Feeds too. However, decades of experience with RSS has taught me that it’s most often just a matter of the website having changed their IDs when they’re not supposed to.)

@daniel for me it happens with most of my "news" feeds - BBC, Guardian, Pitpass (F1 news), etc.
I get the same articles pass by several times in a day and regularly have to scan the feed to see if anythings new while deleting all the duplicates. It's pretty annoying...

if i remember correctly, the forum shows that many of us have mentioned / explained this chronic problem numerous times before, yet [rightly or wrongly] i get the impression it always seems to be a "surprise" to the devs.
Look, you've got it all wrong! You don't need to follow me. You don't need to follow anybody! You've got to think for yourselves! You're all individuals!

others have also said this before, but with respect, this does not ring true to me, because i do not only use vivaldi... in my non-chromium browser, with the
feedbroaddon, for the same channel example i posted earlier, none of those duplicates occur.Look, you've got it all wrong! You don't need to follow me. You don't need to follow anybody! You've got to think for yourselves! You're all individuals!

Yes, I have gone on about it several times and I think you have too. It defeats the purpose of a newsfeed when it's basically the same as looking at the website myself every five minutes and trying to spot what's new that way instead...

@mossman except if I look at the webpage I don't have to waste time deleting hundreds of posts every day...

Thank you for this hint: Disable browser window in portal.

@vankom: We would like to know about all bugs fixed that way, please share if you know of any.

i'm confused & puzzled about this change
Performances. One of the most usual complaints on scenarios with a lot of windows/tabs.
The change should hopefully mitigate these issues.
For scripts/patchers...yeah, they clearly have to be adapted and re-tested.
So mods should be hooked in both files?Patience Is The Key To Get The Vivaldi Spree | Unsupported Extensions | Github | w11 + Kde Manjaro + Android 13

@Hadden89 oh t/y

can anyone show me in the setting, how to make sidebar autohide, like Opera do?
-
@logytech There is not yet any option in settings. Vote for Option to Autohide Tab Bar / UI. In that thread, you can see a link to a CSS Modification.

@logytech Hi, in Vivaldi the "side bar" is called Panels:

@daniel I'm a bit confused about this experiment. As I understood it, this option was engaged by default, making new pages open faster. That may be but I'm now experiencing -- not frequent but enough to bother me -- instances of Vivaldi "not responding". In at least one case I had reset my machine to get out of it. Could there be any connection? If not, any suggestions? TIA

@janrif: New window of browser, not new tab, better stay with stable version.
