Vivaldi Crashes on downloading images from Chat GPT (DallE)
-
Pretty specific issue!
When I download a DallE image from chatGPT, vivaldi crashes. I have replicated this on two different macs using different versions of vivaldi on different OS. Both are using fairly old OS's mind you - hope that isnt the issue.
DallE is super useful for me and I use it a lot - I dont get that issue when downloading DallE through bing, or any other images elsewhere - not that I have noticed.
Turned off all extensions but still happens.
I will also send a bug report, but I wonder if anyone else has had this issue and has tips.
Happens on: 6.2.3105.56 (Stable channel) (x86_64) on 10.14.6
And: 6.5.3206.48 (Stable channel) (x86_64) on 11.6.1Since: well I only started using Chatgpt Plus on 23 Dec and noticed it immediately.

Ok
Let's wait for someone else to check. -
I'm experiencing the exact same issue each and every time I click on the download icon in the upper left corner of any image created by Chat GPT's DALL-E.
A temporary workaround I'm using is:
- Click on the image created by DALL-E, which opens a popup of the image (expanded) in ChatGPT.
- Right click on the expanded image and select "Save image as..." and save it to your computer.
- Close the popup of the image.
(Incidentally, clicking on the download icon in the expanded image also crashes Vivaldi.)
Vivaldi 6.2.3105.56
Happening since the first time I used DALL-E many months ago
macOS Version 10.14.6 -

The current Vivaldi version is 6.5, there will be no fixes to older versions.

A couple of points: 1) Currently minimum supported macOS is 10.15, and later this year 11 will be the oldest supported version.
Please note that using older versions of either the OS and/or a browser exposes you to security problems. E.g. there are multiple zero-day patches for problems under active attack in all Vivaldi versions after 6.2, many of which affected 6.2, as well.

As much as I didn't want to, I've secured instructions for installing macOS 11 on unsupported hardware...
But I'll hang in there with Catalina as long as possible!
Will Vivaldi 6.6 be released before the floor of macOS 11 is added?

The "floor" will arrive in Vivaldi with Chromium 130 (last version with support is Chromium 128).
Upstream Chromium 128 reaches Stable Aug 20, while Chromium 130 (without 10.15 support) reaches Stable Oct 15, so no worries, for 9 months.

@yngve I was going to up-vote your post but I don't want to give the impression that I'm for obsolescence....
(Might have something to do with my age!)
But thanks for the info. I appreciate the explanation, straightforward and clear โ as always.

FYI I no longer experience this issue.
