        Minimize button's focus is not fixed.

        What's the point to release Stable version earlier and then release a bunch of patches to fix the known bugs?

          @andrew84 It's almost impossible to release a (complex) software without bugs, so the authors try to fix the ones that could be a showstopper before the release and go resolving the less significant ones after that.

            @leocg My opinion it's because of hurry because Beta has entered 64 just a month ago and now it's Stable already. Usually it was ~1,5 months testing period between releases. The same was happening with 63 version when there were many patches after the release (I don't want even to mention about the versions skipping).

              @andrew84 They probably don't want to stay too far behind Chromium.

                  @bartelsandreas Since Opera Mini for IOS seems to no longer is being developed, I don't really think they will fix anything.

                  But you probably should try to ask in the Mobile blog or in the Opera Mini for IOS section of the forum.

                    When will you change that ugly violet color in the private mood?

                      @Rubulat I don't think they are even planning to do it.

                        The search engine StartPage offers to visit websites anonymously:

                        StartPage_Anonymous View-1.png

                        To signal this mode, StartPage uses an unusual color, like Opera for its private windows:

                        StartPage_Anonymous View-2.png

                        I don't think the two colors are so bad: They have enough signal effect, without being too pushy (as red, orange for example).

                          @yanta: May be they are not too pushy on the bottom line, but on the upper panel they are very annoying

                            @Rubulat When Opera introduced this colour, I found it unpleasant at first as well. However, since then it hasn't happened to me that I close a window with dozens of tabs which content I have to rework and then realize that it was a private window whose tabs can't be restored (that's what I meant by signal effect).

                              @yanta: This signal effect takes too much attention. It's enough to use just another color to understand the differense between normal and private modes.

                                It'd enough to add some small detail for the signal effect for the private mode( address text field background color for example) instead of the whole violet toolbar. Moreover it looks more uglier in dark mode because the toolbar itself becomes dark violet but inactive tabs and 'new tab' buttons have exactly the same light blue effect on hover as in regular mode.
                                *Also they still didn't fix (at least here on Win8) the black loading tab's icon instead of white in light theme in private window. And switching the dark theme off in private windows makes the address bar text black. I'm reporting it since the reborn3 announcement (1 year soon) but they don't care.

                                  Again there is no message from the developers, about the release of a new build only for MAC users.

                                    @temkem: What was the main point of the new commenting system for the blog, wasn't it made to improve the feedback channels for developers by integrating it with forum's comments? For me the feedback is still poor and there is still minimal activity from developers on forum, like previously in other words. But now it's more complicate to post comments in the blog.

                                        @andrew84: about small detail. Opera already has hat&glasses icon instead of site's icon on every private tab, but your version is better

                                          Can you please improve that ad blocker icon?
                                          There are 2 features in there - ad blocking and tracking protection. But if I turn off one of them, I cannot tell the difference because that icon looks always the same, like both are turned on.
                                          There should be 4 versions of that icon for different states.
                                          When both are turned off.
                                          When both are turned on.
                                          When only tracking protection is on.
                                          And when only ad blocker is on.

                                            good and logical idea.
