@zoran88: You can goto the URL opera://flags/#search-in-open-tabs, disable it and restart to get the old behavior back.

@leocg: So, they just swaped a very useful button with another not-so-useful one?
I mean, I really like the Search in Tabs functionallity, but I use it with Ctrl+Space, no need for a dedicated button.
Also, there's plenty of space for the 2 buttons, removing the Closed Tabs button is really non-sense. -

@kmielczarczyk: Please, bring back the Recently Closed Tabs button, I already use Search in Tabs via its shortcut and I don't need a dedicated button.
Now, the Recently Closed Tabs functionallity is buried under a submenu, not user-friendly at all. -

I really don't understand why the Instant Search was not modified by removing its 'web' part if you say this is not popular feature, why the TabMenu suffered as well. Instead of 'web' there could 'Recently closed' tabs (Alt+Space).
*Or as a full compromise add a 3rd tab (<Web> <Open Tabs> <Recently closed>)

Lets get down to facts&numbers.
New way:- focus on O-button then click on it;
- focus on History submenu then go through it;
- focus on needed closed tab (if it inside last 10) than click on it.
Total: 3 points of focus & action.
Old way:
- focus on tab-menu button then click on it;
- focus on needed closed tab than click on it.
Total: 2 points of focus & action.
The new method requires one and a half times more attention and actions (+50%) on such a simple and frequent task as opening a closed tab. And limit of 10 tabs...
Very annoying innovation, personaly I already switched to old-style tab-button. -

Would be much more interesting if Opera implement Vivaldi-like history analitics: https://vivaldi.com/ru/blog/vivaldi-makes-history/

@saam Download and install [Opera Portable](https://www.opera.com/computer/portable] and test it for a while to see if the problem also happens.

After version 68 i realize that the browser is really fast.. Faster than ever
Thank you Opera -

@georgekon it got faster indeed. I thought it was only because I overrode gpu blacklist. Anyway, I prefer a heavier browser with Instant Search, if I'm being honest.
