Still no option for us to return to the old, functional tab cycler? Many users are unhappy with the new cycler and missing closed tabs menu on your forums, Reddit, and elsewhere! Please, developers, listen to our feedback! You're doing such a great job with the other aspects of the browser, and I don't want to be forced to switch!

@atomicthumbs The first linked topic is about recently closed tabs mostly.

@atomicthumbs Instead of 1 tiny but handy feature we've got 2 and both of them are less functional. I don't have many tabs opened at the same time, it means that I rarely use the tabs cycler, but I agree that the horizontal cycler is less helpful (tiles are not informative).
Unfortunately, I think that there are almost no chances they revert something back in near feature.
I could suggest to use a narrower version (to fit normal page preview like previously) of the Search in tabs popup for the Ctrl+Tab shortcut only, but they won't remove the horizontal cycler feature I guess.
Something like this (but without 'recently closed' maybe)

@leocg The search-in-tabs feature, horizontal cycler, and missing closed tabs menu are part of the same changes to tab management.

@atomicthumbs Maybe but people, at least on that topic, seems to be more interested in the return of recently closed tabs.

What's that?
On html5test.com Opera has only 471 out of 555 points. Vivaldi has 525. I remember once we have been better.

@ralf-brinkmann True., looks like degradation.
Even Opera 58 has 504.

Opera 69 has 528

@ralf-brinkmann Same on Chrome, so probably a Chromium issue.

Add: Opera 70 shows the same result. Edge shows 478.

@ralf-brinkmann If you go to https://beta.html5test.com/index.html, you get better results.

History or any other pop up tab doesn't open.

Edge better than Opera? The world is going down!

@ralf-brinkmann Better than Chrome also.

In theory, the results should be the same or, at least, very close.

You are right, there is a https page. Here I get 523 points with the new Developer 72.0.3784.0 from today. Could be a little more!
But I don't understand, why Opera itself does not switch automatically to the https version of a page if there is one. I have to install a tool instead.
