Vivaldi has today started crashing on its startup for me in NixOS stable 23.11, Pantheon, X11.

I think it was initially working after my recent update to NixOS 23.11 from 23.05.

Before the last run, I tried renaming the ~/.cache/vivaldi directory to something else. It took a couple of/few seconds longer for the crash to happen.

Edit: I’ve just tried renaming ~/.config/vivaldi directory to something else, and I now seem to have a default-config Vivaldi running okay. I’ll try reinstalling the couple of extensions I was using (a password manager and Stylus) and see what happens.

Edit 2: the two extensions I’ve reinstalled don’t seem to currently be causing crashes.

@PapalPenguin, if you don’t mind losing your workspaces/tabs/sessions, deleting/renaming ~/.config/vivaldi might be worth a try. I tried copying the ~/.config/vivaldi/Default/Sessions directory from the old directory to the new, and it has restored some, but not all, I think, of my workspaces’ tabs.

For anyone getting qt plugin/xcb sth issue:

run vivaldi --disable-features=AllowQt argument to command line could make the browser start.
