BadgerScot 🦡🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿It has been an interesting week for PC technical issues: Stardew Valley suddenly couldn't connect online. I play this with my fiancee who lives in another country so it was particularly vexing. Turns out <a href="https://forums.stardewvalley.net/threads/galaxy-api-not-loading-with-glibc-2-41.36974/#post-160943" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">it was a Linux update to 'glibc'</a>, a rare update from them that knowlngly broke user-space (A Linux dev no-no). It actually broke Discord too but you didn't see that because Discord got a fix in place in a hurry. And the Vivaldi browser developed a weird habit of opening KDE's shortcut page in Settings every time it was opened. The culprit here is Chromium, upon which Vivaldi is based, <a href="https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium/issues/3244" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">seemingly having introduced this bug in the recent update</a> to v134. Workarounds are now in place for both, soothing my sanity. :ablobdance: <a href="https://kitty.social/tags/Software" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Software</a> <a href="https://kitty.social/tags/Troubleshooting" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Troubleshooting</a> <a href="https://kitty.social/tags/VivaldiBrowser" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#VivaldiBrowser</a> <a href="https://kitty.social/tags/StardewValley" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StardewValley</a> <a href="https://kitty.social/tags/Linux" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a> <a href="https://kitty.social/tags/Chromium" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Chromium</a>

syklist<a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/@ruario" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ruario</a> I take the point that you cannot actually use ProtonVPN without explicitly logging in. That is fine.What I think is still an issue for some like me is that clicking on the VPN button installs the extension without asking. I remember in my earlier days in 1st/2nd line support removing multiple extra toolbars installed on Windows machines when Internet Explorer was the go-to browser. People just clicked on something without knowing the consequences of that click and hupsakay yet another (not infrequently malware) toolbar appeared on their browser.So I think a "Do you want to install the ProtonVPN extension Yes-No-Tell Me More" would be a good way of ensuring that users were fully informed during the whole process. That would also be an ideal moment to explain how useful ProtonVPN is to Vivaldi users. I am here on Mastodon and have posted sporadically on the Vivialdi forums over the years yet the first indication that Vivaldi had partnered with ProtonVPN was when the button appeared on my toolbar.Informed and happy users are worth their weight in gold.<a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/vivaldi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vivaldi</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/vivaldibrowser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vivaldibrowser</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/protonVPN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#protonVPN</a>

syklist<a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/@ruario" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ruario</a> OK I Just checked on another device. Clicking on the ProtonVPN button for the first time installs the extension without asking if the user wants to install it. From my point of view it is not really an opt-in as I am not given the choice knowing the consequences of my action of clicking on the ProtonVPN button. It is not a big deal but perhaps a message asking the user "Do you want to install the ProtonVPN extension. Yes - No - Tell me more?" would cover all bases?<a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/VivaldiBrowser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#VivaldiBrowser</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/vivaldi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vivaldi</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/ProtonVPN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ProtonVPN</a>

syklist<a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/@ruario" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ruario</a> One more thought, if it was not clear to me that I was opting-in is it really an opt-in process?<a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/vivaldi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vivaldi</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/VivaldiBrowser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#VivaldiBrowser</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/ProtonVPN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ProtonVPN</a>

syklist<a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/@ruario" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ruario</a> Thanks for clarifying that. There was no obvious installation process so I assumed it was pre-installed. I do not recall being asked to install anything, so I will check how it works on another instance of Vivaldi.Kudos for having done this via an extension as opposed to what Mozilla did with Firefox when they incorporated Pocket into Firefox in a "non-removable" way.<a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/vivaldi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vivaldi</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/vivaldibrowser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vivaldibrowser</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/ProtonVPN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ProtonVPN</a>

syklistFor any of you who don't want ProtonVPN in Vivaldi the good news is that the functionality is provided by an extension. So the ProtonVPN feature can either be disabled or removed completely."Tools" -> "Extensions" and there you will find ProtonVPN. Remove or disable as you wish and carry on as before. There may be many reasons why you would want to remove it, for example if you already have a VPN via an application on your device that allows all browsers and apps to make use of the VPN. I generally feel you are going to offer bundled features in say a browser it is much better to have them as opt-in than opt-out. In this case though, after seeing the effect of the recently introduced UK Internet Content Blocker, blocking a particular website that an elderly relative uses, (without good reason as far as I could see) I can see a reason to make this particular feature an opt out. Installing the ProtonVPN app on a Linux computer is somewhat more involved than logging into ProtonVPN in your browser. So maybe Vivaldi's ProtonVPN extension is something my elderly relative can learn to use.<a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/vivaldi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vivaldi</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/VivaldiBrowser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#VivaldiBrowser</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/ProtonVPN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ProtonVPN</a>
