@kened Thanks, I've done that already, but flags are for more advanced users and I'm critical about the general direction which the changes have taken.

@lukasz75: Me too. Quick access menu was very important for me. Now it's gone.

@justwanttosaythis: same thing. Alt+Space was useful, and the tab search was already there. Now alt+space no longer works, and tab search is presented to us as something new ‍️

@smartbar Alt+Space is an OS shortcut that shouldn't ever been use

@leocg said in Opera 68 is here with built-in Instagram in the sidebar:

@treego I undestarnd that it's something important for the person, I'm just trying to find out why. For me, having a list of recently close tabs - and not all closed tabs - may be useful but I don't see a reason for having it in a one click menu.

Couple of use cases where I've used this feature extensively:

• During work (software development) I often come to situation where you have bunch of tabs open on same problem and en up closing/reopening same page - having closed tabs accessible in 1 click is really nice there
• Online shopping - same as above, either when comparing products or just having same product open in multiple shops to (be it because of stock, shipping costs or whatever)
• Used it extensively while still in college - For going trough sources/literature

@regnareb Not on Windows, and all shortcuts are remappable anyway.

@misterdoge It is especially on windows. It has been there since at least Windows 98 I think, and it's a major one.
Would you override Alt+Tab? That would be pretty stupid

@regnareb Ok and what is it supposed to do? Can you explain why it does nothing on My windows 10 computer?

@misterdoge It opens the shortcut menu for the current window, same as right click on the top menu bar. Maybe you have autohotkey or a program bypassing it, or maybe the current window is bypassing it.
Some prebuilt computers have also a bug that prevent that shortcut from working.

I checked, that shortcut works since Windows 3.1, so it's been ~28 years.

@regnareb My bad, it actually works like you say. Then yes, better choices could have been made. I still miss instant search

Please add Touchpad gestures, ability to use back in forwards with 2 fingers. That would be great! And thank you for your work, except this it's a very nice browser

I came here to look at the update note because i too am very irritated they removed the "recently closed tabs history" button.
If they don't put it back asap i'll switch to another main browser after 15 years of opera.
Do what you have to, give us that feature back !

Put back the "recently closed" button, it is way more useful and very handy. Whoever thought this change would be better probably doesn't even use Opera. I know there is a way to get it back which I did, but it should be a lot more intuitive, just put a on/off setting in the options.

Hi team! Thanks for the excelent work. I just want to share a suggestion for this excelent browser. I use a lot web pages that uses audio as text to speech or reading pages. In many cases, I have to go Chrome because my language (spanish) is not supported. It will be great if you can fix that. In the same way, I can not use youtube for broadcasting in Opera. I love opera and it is my favorite browser, that why I ask you please fix this issues!

Thanks for the wonderful work

@ignome: Just found the solution brought by Kened.
It works, but shouldnt have been in this update anyway, at least under this form. I was especting an option in parameters to re-enable it directly.
Anyway, thanks Kened.

OK, just wanted to scream about the missing reopen closed tab feature, but found your advice by disabling the magnifier icon. Its easy, copy paste it (does everybody know where?) aso. But its a little bit queer and indicating, that you cant handle both features at the same time. Really? Sounds like a Dilbert comic. Make Wally stay out of the team.

What if Opera had a interface transparency control? Users could make it transparent like Opera Neon was.
