Today I tried the procedure to replace the libffmpeg.so file from Chromium and it works fine. Over time only the path to the files changed. Now it is:

I deleted the libffmpeg.so file from Opera with:
sudo rm /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera-stable/libffmpeg.so

and copied the better one from the new Chromium:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/chromium/libffmpeg.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera-stable/libffmpeg.so

Thank you for this advice. I was already desperate and tried using other browsers like Firefox or Chromium, but for me Opera is the best for many practical reasons.

@MrTeatime said in Why Create New Versions of Opera Instead of Adding Features to One?:

Hi Opera team!
I have a question about your browser development strategy. Currently, there are several versions of Opera, such as Opera GX, Opera Air, and Opera Neon. I’m wondering why you choose to create separate versions of the browser with unique features instead of implementing these solutions as options in a single, main version of Opera.
For example, the features available in Opera Air could just as well be introduced as a "focus mode" in the standard version of Opera. Could you explain what benefits this approach brings both to you and to users?
Thanks, and looking forward to your thoughts!

Hi! 👋
Thanks for the clear explanation! Your answer really helped me understand why separate versions exist—it makes sense for users who want specialized features without cluttering the main browser. Appreciate the insight!

Any updates on being able to disable this in Opera settings, or is there an official feature request to make that happen somewhere?

@kikonen It's not a bug. You can request a way to disable the shortcut in the proper forum.

Anyone have a link to that for a casual user here?

@tgmct It's possible he's talking about speed dial suggestions or (more likely) sponsored speed dials. Either can be disabled in Settings.

Opera on Chromebook is it

It installs from the Android Playstore, as do most Android apps, with a "desktop customised" version. Better than Chrome in several ways, especially privacy - separate password vault, cookies reliably deleted, etc. However, we could do with a separate help page because many tweaks for Android simply don't work in ChromeOS.
In particular, I'd like to hide the side menu bar for more screen space .Opera say "Alt F11" but there are no F-keys on a Chromebook!
Is there a way to revert the tab sound indicator to original?

@2rx You can add one from the addons store: https://addons.opera.com/wallpapers/?tag=animated

You can also make your own: https://dev.opera.com/articles/making-animated-themes/

Article is old but still has the basics to make an animated wallpaper.

@banton However, if you are talking about making Google the default search engine as that image seems to say, you can't because Google is not among the pre-defined search engines.
