I am sick and tired of those damn icons showing up on the left for facebook, twatter, instacrap and so on. They randomly pop up interrupting what I'm doing then having to re-delete them from the left again. Stop it not eveyone uses that garbage.

Why would you remove the flag #sidebar-extensions-in-browser-sidebar and further reduce the sidebar customization? It's now impossible to have a pinned sidebar for bookmarks that doesn't take away nearly 20% of the screen width. At least let us make the Opera sidebar narrower if you want to limit our use of such extensions.

This!!
It's ridiculous to anchor the sidebar and when you put a video in full screen the sidebar continues to be seen.

Since this newest update to O70, clicking on torrent magnet files forces a new popup that verifies you want my torrent pgm to open. This never happened before O70. No way to stop this from happening even though it asks if you do not want to popup in the future. Please fix this.

There's a bug in the Print Module. Print Preview (left) does not show the page number on each page as one scrolls.

@bbildman You might have to remove the torrent entry from the Preferences file, try a link again and then tell it not to bug you. Then it might stick. Testing in a new standalone installation would tell you if that'd work or not.

@chawoobie: I found that if I uncheck Protect me from Malicious Sites, I can access PNC just fine. Is this a bug or a new ""feature?" Never had this problem before this update to Opera 70.

@chawoobie Nome of them. The feature is kinda old and it's not a bug, the site was just included in one of the thir party databases used by Opera for the malicious sites protection feature.

@chawoobie You can try contacting APWG to inform them that the site was wrongly added.

@chawoobie It's up to you. If you feel that you don't need the feature, just leave it disabled.
By the way, you don't get an option to ignore the warning?

@wagnerfilho89: @wagnerfilho89: I decided to restore version 69 and wait for the recent tabs feature, if they do bring it back at all.
Workaround: follow the instructions in this Opera Forums thread, the procedure is the same. https://forums.opera.com/topic/31873/solved-how-to-revert-to-opera-58/4
Make sure you have blocked auto-updater (Opera_AutoUpdate.exe) before you relaunch. Blocking instructions here: https://www.askvg.com/tip-how-to-disable-or-block-auto-update-feature-in-opera-web-browser/
When you relaunch Opera, check the version number. You should see version 69. Auto-update will attempt to connect to the Internet, but since you have blocked it, it won't be able to check for updates. You will instead see "An error occurred while checking for updates." Just ignore it.
Lastly, you want to disable the Search in Open Tabs experimental feature. Doing so will bring back the familiar Recently Closed dropdown list. Here's how:
- Type this in the address bar: opera://flags/#search-in-open-tabs
- Select Disabled
- Restart Opera browser.Hope this helps.

Maybe they removed the flag just for fun?
After reading all the negative comments regarding the 'Search in tabs' feature and that many users restored the original TabMenu they laughed (evil laugh) and removed the flag with the words: ' You think you clever enough to disable the flag and restore the TabMenu? Now try doing the same in 70 version, genius! '

@andrew84 Flags are made to be removed at some point, they are experiments as the page clearly says. When they stop testing the new feature, the flags is enabled on stable and removed, sooner or later.
Search in tabs allows you to see your recently closed tabs and, even better, search for them. -
