Unhappy Browser


Hello everybody,
I am using Vibaldi browser which works good. I am using mint cinamon (version 20).
All of a sudden, after a few months, vivaldi is slowing down and sometimes shutting down by itself. I cancelled the cache and cookies but nothing changed. Any suggestions? Thanks

Have you tried other browser? Does it have the same issue?
Vibaldi can be reinstalled? Just asking never use this thing before, if can be reinstalled try backing up data that are needed like favorites or browsing history if needed.
or check out this link: https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/7387...ow-and-laggy/7

This link shows how to report bugs, but also how to get to the log so you could take a look and see what it is reporting as the problem.

I use Vivaldi. I have had the shutdown problem twice in the last week. In both cases it occurred when I had multiple sessions of Vivaldi open at the same time and I used the mouse to drag one instance of Vivaldi to another virtual desktop. Since Vivaldi issues releases fairly frequently my solution is to wait until after the next Vivaldi update and see if the problem is fixed.

I have had no problems with Vivaldi's speed.

I use a single instance of Vivaldi on Manjaro and have not observed any of these issues.
