@leocg said in Opera 65 comes with an improved tracker blocker and redesigned address bar:

quad core CPU

Some pentium/celeron can have 4 core also but they'll be worse than 2 cored i3.

computerized device sounds interesting )

@leocg: pentium/celeron Pentium / celeron have 2 cores and 4 logical flows; this is convenient in offices where i3 i5 i7 i9 gaming computers are not needed, not to mention laptops with mobile processors where performance is even weaker but the browser is not a game and it should not load the CPU so much

@andrew84 That's why I first mentioned an I5 equivalent instead of generically say a quad core CPU.

@firuz-u7 Celeron is a piece of museum in my opinion.

And an entry level computer - that would be an I5 equivalent - would be a good choice for offices. I use an I3 at work and sometimes I really would like to have something more faster.

@leocg We deviated from the topic the main task is that the Opera browser should not load the CPU when playing video and audio as other browsers 'Google Chrome, Vivaldi, Yandex Browse, Mozilla Firefox' do.

@firuz-u7 Yep, you already told that. No need to keep repeating it.

current dev. 66.0.3502.0 (and earlier), if started without network connection (offline), Opera hangs when clearing the cache (opera://settings/clearBrowserData) - continuous loop, the rotating circle rotates, otherwise no reaction.
Tab must be closed manually. Repeat results in the same.
Opera GX does not show this behavior.

The same is with embedded audio players.
For example:

@davidos The topic has already been exhausted, it remains to wait for the patch.

@leocg The one I replied to; address bar divider line gone.

To be honest, I much prefer the more traditional sidebar, as seen in browsers like Firefox. You have an icon in the address bar and don't have to have a permanent sidebar to the left of the browser. The new bookmarks panel is great, even if not exactly a new idea but having the permanent sidebar panel there as well is quite unnecessary.

@sac: Each to their own but I quite like it. You get the name of the website which is handy when quickly glancing at the dropdown menu (it's exactly the same as the way Firefox does it and I'm used to that). Can't please everyone I guess.

Also getting to the full bookmarks view is now a complete faff, especially if all you want to do is empty the bin. Maybe include the bin in the bookmars panel at least?

@arthurdent: Yeah, they rolled out this entire "side bar" thing as something new and great from Reborn testing or whatever, and all they are doing now is just returning to what it was in old opera.

But instead of clear and consistent functions, its now like... sometimes it opens new tab, sometimes it opens just sidebar, its so weird now... and then, there is still that Ctrl+Shift+S shortcut, which is super ridiculous. They fixed it in Opera GX, but GX doesn have speed dial button in main panel.

Development of Opera is now all over the place. Im happy with overal product, but some things are just so weird in this browser.

After shortcut for bookmarks bar, that is my most used menu shortcut in Opera. I use it to access V7 extensions.
