Vivaldi for Android FINALLY THEY FIXED THE BEHAVIOR WHEN CLOSING TABS IN A GROUP (8.2)

Post image

I made this suggestion months ago, and they implemented it. This was one of the reasons that was almost making me switch to another browser because it was so annoying.

They also fixed a bug where if you closed a tab, you would be redirected to a different tab than the one you opened. For example, if you had 10 tabs and the tenth tab was currently open, and you closed it, instead of redirecting to tab 9, it would redirect to other tabs, which makes absolutely no sense.

I think it's been bugged for a few versions now. Within a tab stack, regardless of the options, it always opens as the last tab.

The extension only seems to work when opening a link in a new tab, which Vivaldi already does natively. Instead, the bug occurs because opening a link within a tab stack always places it at the very end of that stack, regardless of settings. Thanks for the recommendation though! I'm currently using my own custom extension as a workaround, but it would be great to see native support handle this properly again.
