for the better part of today all of Vivaldi has been down. it has not just only affected the sync service, but i had to remove both the stable and snap-shot repositories from my update manager in linux. does anyone know what's going on? thanks

Maybe some maintenance or outage. Anything could happen. Why so immediately remove repositories from Linux? Couldn't you wait more?

no cause as long as the server was down and the repositories were checked i couldn't preform updates. if it had just been one day i would of waited to uncheck them, but it push into a second day. all's good now..

@mrgrimm As the first one isn't locked, you should have kept using it.
as the first one WAS locked by you yesterday it was impossible to keep using it. i'm assuming by your post you unlocked it JUST before making your post.

Not me regardless, but anyway - I was fine on vivaldi forum a few minutes ago.
As far as it goes, they must have changed something in the last forum update. It used to be that moderators couldn't post in a locked thread (you had to unlock it first), and now we can. Since it still shows me a Reply button I didn't know it was locked. Weird.

ok sorry then. whoever locked it truly had no business doing so. again sorry i thought it was you who locked it. i noticed here yesterday we can't edit the first post so we can mark it solved.

Posts can be edited up to 30 minutes from its original time.
that's nice, but not when you need to mark a thread solved DAYS later.

If it is solved now, Leo or I can mark it.
Unfortunately on the old Community some users would write upsetting content, then edit it after the person they wanted to upset had replied. To prevent people from doing that, they changed it to 30 minutes as it is now. We have fewer such trolls these days, but they see no real need to change it.

Maybe someday they will add an option for a topic's OP to set a reply as the solution and, therefore, the topic as solved.
that would be nice to be able to tag a post as the selected solution.
