Do something with the annoying 'flashbangs' on browser start (especially in dark mode).
First I see a general full screen white flash (most probably doesn't refer to the browser's UI directly), then I see how does the background flicker few times: solid colorful background (the main color of the wallpapers) > pure white > solid dark background > wallpaper finally. On all channels. I'm not a fan of the stroboscopic effects.

P.S. Compare how does O58 start here

The weather widget shows the wrong city. How to change it?

How to remove this button? She is not needed there.

And how do I remove “Frequently visited sites” in the address bar? It bothers me and irritates me a lot.

@thortik To remove the button, go into chrome://flags and Disable "Extensions Toolbar Menu". To turn off "Frequently visited sites" in the address bar, I went into Settings/Advanced/User interface and turned off "Show enhanced address bar".

Where is "Open Tabs"? It is not available in the sidebar... And now it is impossible to view open tabs from another device...

@alexis-borovik: Sidebar right-click, option "tabs".

Please, flashbangs while loading pages. Very annoying in dark mode.

With the dark theme, the Block and Delete cookies buttons are almost unreadable, again.

I'm guessing it's related to the "Flashbangs", but I see a real slowdown, and CPU spike sometimes, particularly when opening a new window. I "overuse" browsers, with "too many tabs" and such, but this was not behaving badly prior to this push.

I'm guessing the slowness "stall" that I'm experiencing which lasts almost 2 minutes, happens when I click the address bar, and "top sites" are shown. Could be it's accessing my bookmarks/speed dial, which are too huge, but, that's just what I've got.

@tjohnphillips And... I turned off "Show enhanced address bar" and I'm no longer getting the "stall" when I click there, nor the "top sites", but, I think I might just be able to live with that.

@tjohnphillips opera://flags/#suggestion-scoring-improved autocompletes based on your speed dials. If you have a lot of speed dials, this feature might cause some performance issues too. It's buggy anyway, so it's fine to disable.
