Text input fields are flashing in an odd manner. When i try it on an unstylized html text input element, the following happens: Once you start typing, after one second anything you typed will be surrounded by gray. If you hover your mouse over it it will turn white again, but after one second it will turn blue. When i hover over another input element (while i was still typing in the first one) the text gets the same gray background as before in the first element, but in addition the rest of the first input field becomes a lighter shade of gray. This lighter shade of gray only goes as far to the right as the right edge of the input element below it. Tried putting on deafault settings did not work. tried in other browsers functions normally. Opera Version 56.0.3051.36 on Desktop Windows 10.

@jakobo Lots of people are encountering this issue. There are other threads on it. Long story short, you need to disable hardware acceleration in settings for now.

I wasn't getting this with Opera 55, so I'm confused what is causing it exactly. It looks like this:
Whole field gets highlighted and as I'm typing, all the text gets highlighted like I'm selecting it (or using Ctrl+A). And as I'm typing large amounts of text, whole field starts flashing like it's selecting and unselecting the whole field. Why I'm suspicious it's something specific is because I'm not getting this ANYWHERE else but on Reddit.
Only addons I'm using is Feedly Notifier and Bitwarden. I do have integrated AdBlock enabled with all the basic lists selected except Malware blocking list.

Another week, another update, still not fixed. Honestly, how can interface problems like this not receive the highest priority?

Lol, it's even happening in the "I don't care about cookies" extension settings XD

And in Opera's own Bookmarks panel. If you try to rename a folder in there, it'll highlight the whole text XD I just find it funny that such bug goes unaddressed for days giving we well know it wasn't happening just 2 updates back. Hm.
