Which choices did you make when you installed Vivaldi?

From within Htop under your System menu, find Vivaldi on the right and the user it's running as to your left. It'll say either root or spot.

As for stable or testing, check Vivaldi's "Help / About" menu.

The "User Agent" string supplies your Chrome build.

This via Quickpet. The latest STABLE SFS build running as spot.

So I ask myself, "what in the HAY is our boy rburkartjo doing over there?"

I don't have vivaldi sfs, but using vivaldi-portable, images are displayed correctly.

That's a lovely spring desktop you have ThruHammer
