Yes, as far as I can see, everything works fine
- click on dive in list, map moves and zooms to dive
- click on divesite in map selects corresponding dive(s) in list
- select visible dives from menu in map works
- choosing dive site with double-click works
- changing exact position of dive site by dragging with mouse works (never
noticed this in the old version, is this new feature? Cool!)
> b) does printing work
Yes, works fine. Printing all dives, or printing just selected dives, tried two
different templates.
Small suggestion for improvement: Current subsurface does not remember which
template was used last (it always offers "Flowlayout") . I am not using paper
logbook since I stated to use subsurfacemobile, but if I would print
regularely I would like subsurface to remember my choice of template...

Works from Suunto Vyper 2 with 3rd-party USB-Serial adaptor.

Yesterday was one occasion, where it didn't connect and used local data. Then
I selected "take cloud storage online", and that worked. Have started the
program several times since then, and no problems. So I would say, yes it does
work.

It is not completely broken :-)
or in other words: very usable from my perspective.
