Supermium

[j7n]

The problem with the new topic lasted for a really long time, and only fixed now. I remember being unable to  post on the Microsoft Office forum months ago. The Like button was used by a group of people with a leader whose name begins with "D", but they don't seem to be kiddies. I only use the like button generally when I've read what was said to me and don't want to reply anymore.

While everything works, I'm keeping Supermium 132. Don't fix what isn't broken.

Um...  Why?

1)  I personally feel as if the "like" feature of this website is RUINING IT!
Turns the website into some sort of KIDDIE GAME.
Truly USEFUL members have little to no "rep points" because the KIDS are not logging in EVERY DAY to fill their QUOTA for the USEFUL posts.
Rather, they only hunt for their "favorite people" (useful or not) and click that d@mn "like", even if that post was from DECADES AGO because that's what it took to fulfil that daily QUOTA.
It's not against forum rules, so "carry on, you're doing great work".

2)  I started using Chrome++ years ago, and it wasn't by the mention of the person requesting a "thumbs up"
Did I give a thumbs up at the time?  Don't recall.  Is it really important "years later"?  I assure you, THAT person is not REQUESTING (edit) SOLICITING FOR a "thumbs up".

3)  Technically, I only "replied" because POSTING NEW TOPICS IS (edit) WAS CURRENTLY BROKEN.

Respect your opinion...

Sometimes all I can do is laugh at myself.
I spent the better part of two days in Ghidra comparing/contrasting Chrome++ version 1.11.1 and version 1.13.3.

I wanted either -
   a) restore 1.11.1's approach for launch_on_exit= to 1.13.3, or
   b) add 1.13.3's ability to add itself to Chrome/Chromium's "about" page to 1.11.1

And all that time in Ghidra DID SOLVE MY ISSUE.
ie, here is Chrome v140's "about" page showing that Chrome++ version 1.11.1 is being used.

 

Only then did I discover this and adding this MANUALLY as a command_line= option also works (and much easier than digging through Ghidra, lol).

Why is it that the Recently Closed Tabs feature under the down-arrow and the address bar don't show me the last addresses I visited? This is probably so in all Chrome variants and Google is employing some "wisdom". If I open Hamburger -> History -> History, the last entries are not the same as shown under Recently Closed Tabs. The way I see it, this recent exists to save me from using the Hamburger menu. Also, if I  have visited example.com/a example.com/b example.com/c in this order, A may persistently show in the address bar auto-complete even though I haven't opened it for some time.

The 'recently closed' list has always seemed to be reasonably accurate for me, although I have seen occasional anomalies where something which should be there isn't.

Nope.  I run v140 (OT to Supermium but you did specifically call out "all Chrome variants", so it seems this time that OT = On Topic) and the Recently Closed Tabs is dead-on accurate.  I've never had to use the Hamburger for the purpose of recent history.

I use Supermium now exclusively, but had this issue in "new" Opera before. I see now one way it differs from history. If I had visited X,Y,Z  in the same tab, I can only see Z on the list. There is no way to recall X or Y without opening history.

Makes sense; if Z was the last to have been loaded in the tab when that tab was closed, why do you expect otherwise? After all, the browser feature is called "Recently Closed Tabs", not "Recently Visited Sites" ; however, a closed-tab's history isn't being deleted (it's saved in session data); re-open the tab with site Z on it, then use the back button once to revisit site Y (or twice for site X, etc.) ...
