One thing which is annoying about Vivaldi and also Firefox and presumably also all the other Android web browsers is the way the "Add To Homescreen" button works on pages like Mastodon which are Progressive Web Apps.
If you add the shortcut to the homescreen then it opens as a WPA which means the browser stuff is all gone and hidden. No back button. No way to bookmark. No way to launch a link in a new browser window etc.
Ought to be two separate buttons for "Add a link to the homepage" vs "Add this app as an app to the homepage" but there isn't.
You can get around this by turning on airplane mode and adding a link to the error page to the homescreeen, which then works as a link to the website in the browser, not a WPA app, when you're online again.
I did this to the links I use with Vivaldi before I realized it's proprietary and so will not do.
Trying to rebuild them as Firefox links again and sadly something is broken now. Won't add the error page. Tells me the pixel launcher is crashing.
So I can't have the old web bookmark links to pages in WPA apps. Boo. 😦

"Rest and be thankful" spot in #Scotland,
Before and after the snow (2 days ago vs today)

Photo of a hilly landscape with a road curving downwards surrounded by mossy and rocky green- yellow land, green coniferous trees on the right and several mountains on each side, also green - brown but with snowy tops. This is all below a bright blue sky with only one small cloud on the right.
Photo of the same landscape from almost the same point of view, but it looks like it's in black and white because it is entirely covered in snow, only the trees that were on the right remain dark, the sky is now fully cloudy, hiding most of the snowy peaks in the distance

North Carolina led for just .4 seconds in Saturday's rivalry game against Duke.
But that's all they needed to secure the win.
Seth Trimble's three-pointer with 0.4 seconds left delivered the Tar Heels a 71-68 win and closed out a 9-0 run in the game.
After Trimble's three-pointer, the fans rushed the court before having to clear it,
leaving a delay and one last heave for the Blue Devils.
But a turnover sealed it and the party can begin on Franklin…

If this is it for Lavonte David, he has a chance to make his last game a historic one espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/474847
