Opera has made 2 changes recently that have annoyed me to no end. This is one of them.

I came to Opera because once upon a time this browser was known for giving users control over their browsing experience. I guess nothing lasts forever.

Just did some testing and it seems my mouse gestures extension no longer plays nice with Opera. This problem goes away when I switch to built in gestures.

However, Opera's native gestures are very limited in scope and cannot be configured, so a gestures extension is a must.

Something changed 2 builds back (I think) that makes my gesture extension not work right. Very vague, I'm aware, but that's all I have to go on as well.

Just updated and still getting the problem.

I'm starting to get used to hitting Tab right after opening a tab now, but it's still annoying and breaks my workflow.

With the most recent update to 69.0.3686.77, this old bug has reappeared.

When I open a new tab with Ctrl+T or by hitting the "+" button in the tab bar, the tab opens with focus on address field.

But when I open a new tab with a mouse gesture, focus is not on the address field.
