Hover effects broken after prolonged use #3478

Open shammellee opened 4 years ago

shammellee commented 4 years ago

After prolonged browsing, hover effects (eg, links with underlines) stop working. Hover effects work again after disabling then reenabling Vimium. I noticed this behavior on amazon.com

os: macos sierra 10.12.4 chrome version: 79.0.3945.117 vimium version: 1.64.6

Could you provide the URLs of the buggy web pages and your operating system's brand and version?

Will the page get slower and slower when this issue happens?

This is a little strange - on amazon.com, its links of goods will cause page reloading, so I think there should have been no memory or event listener leaks.

@gdh1995 no, page speed/performance is fine. I'm on Amazon a lot, so that's just where I notice it. Though it has happened on other sites as well. As I said, hover effects work again after disabling the extension.

When this issue happens, can you use a real mouse to click a link? And a snapshot of console in "Developer Tools" may be helpful.

I'm experiencing the same issue (and have been for months). Doesn't occur until I've used the browser for a bit (not sure if it depends on time or resource consumption) and keeps occurring until I restart the browser or the add-on.

I've recorded a minimal demo of the glitch. Note that the mouse pointer changes to its intended style (hand for link, I-beam for text) briefly every time the pointer moves across the respective area. Similarly, hovering a navbar on a "real" website then results in the nav items opening and collapsing for every pixel the mouse moves. Neither the tab's console nor the parent process browser console (not captured on video) threw any events during the demo.

Hope this helps. Let me know if there's anything else you'd like me to check, @gdh1995

No idea... Sorry.
