Removing warnings-about-unsafe-websites - Bug?
-
every time I enter to spesific site I get the popup " did you mean XXX.com?"
I once entered into incorrect website, then each time I eneter into the CORRECT website I get this warning.
According to the Documentation - https://help.vivaldi.com/desktop/privacy/warnings-about-unsafe-websites/
It's using browsing history to make the assumptions.
so I've deleted all mentions of this website,
but I still getting this error!how to solve this? is this a bug? is there a guide how to remove this warning for spesific sites? (without resorting to wiping user\history)

@ToxicFi7h Check Settings → Privacy if you have activated "DNS to Help Resolve Navigation Errors".
And could be that your Interne tService Provider has a service which redirects in case of typos in domains. -
@ToxicFi7h This is just some stupid Chromium hand-holding. I don't know if it can be disabled.
Just keep the correct site in History, hopefully it will remember that's where you want to go.
This is in no way unique to Vivaldi, all Chromium browsers have this braindead behaviour.

Thanks,
I dont want to disable this feature all-together.

You can open the history manager to delete the incorrect domain to disable the warning.
I’m not aware of it ever misfiring like this for anyone, though. While you’re in the history manager, could you confirm whether you’ve actually only visited the wrong domain once or multiple times?
