Found a weird bug. Clearing cache in every Chromium-based browser removes all temp files in Cache_Data folder, and 5 remaining files - Data_0, Data_1, Data_2, Data_3, Index - become 8kb, 264kb, 8kb, 8kb, 513kb respectively. But when you clear cache in Vivaldi, it removes all temp files, but the "main 5" files remain the same size. But the most interesting thing is that if you go to any site, click on padlock in address bar -> site settings, it opens a Chrome-style Settings and if click on "Performance and security" tab and then "Clear browsing data" it will clear everything as it should. Again, "Clear browsing data" in Chrome-styled Settings clears cache as it should, but "Delete Browsing Data" (Ctrl+Shift+Delete) doesn't.

@VClassic As is remember the data is nulled, but the size should be reduced.
Known and in bug tracker confirmed issue.

@daniel wow, I don't remember a (major) Chromium bump like that so early.

...and the overlay scrollbars are gone Damn, I hate to have the thick scrollbars always on screen

I hate scrollbars too. This isn't the first time they removed them, but a backlash had them put the overlays back.

Fortunately they are still accessible.

Enable this,
vivaldi://flags/#temporary-unexpire-flags-m114

Restart

Then enable this,
vivaldi://flags/#overlay-scrollbars

@sjudenim great, thanks. I was already testing some extensions like
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/blending-scrollbar/ajjnokaolfbjimgelmdmdlijoclmjnag
but I guess that's for when they will completely remove even the unexpire flags option

BUT - what happened to the Geolocation Override?

Experiment concluded. Conclusion: It needs more work. It’s hidden (not removed) because we won’t finish it in time for the next two major releases.

I had expected loud cheering for VB-37747 in the comments. The bug have had 37 duplicates submitted.

Spelling error: macOS not MacOS (the capital M is an ancient dead version of macOS)

Updated 18th

[sjudenim]

Something has changed, I'm unable to load my custom js files anymore with the browser.html

[AltCode]

@sjudenim See this post by @nomadic. It has to do with the portal experiment that has been turned on by default since the previous snapshot.

[sjudenim]

@AltCode

Thank you

@chas4: No. It’s a proper noun and as should should be written with a capital letter in English. All writing style guides except the one from Apple’s marketing department capitalizes proper nouns.

Fair enough. And yes from my testing, it definitely needs a little more work, like not having to restart the browser for changing location (at least I had to).

But it was a fun experiment, and one sure to gather some serious attention once it gets properly released

That one is so simple - just CSS - a basic user script in (Tamper/Grease/Violent)Monkey will do the same thing

Just in time for summer holiday-travel season

yep, certainly. just squeezed it in, with only a mere six months to spare. phew, that was a tight one.

Since the latest update my search box keeps getting stuck open! Won't close unless I delete the contents...

Just a heads up.

[jaxtraw]

@ian-coog: Yes, same here (Win 10 x64).

[oudstand]

Glad to hear that VB-98620 is fixed

@daniel clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap

[Thot]

There is a glitch in the Bookmarksbar.

The entries in Folders seem to be centered, somehow.
