Traditionally it was released with known and reported bugs
- OMenu > Bookmarks/History options still depend on settings ('show in panel') in the sidebar https://forums.opera.com/post/222446
- unreadable text of selected item on downloads popup https://forums.opera.com/post/222663
- Some icons in the address bar still disappear for the moment while the add site/folder dialog is active. https://forums.opera.com/post/222615
- The another one is called as a 'fix', but instead of the white flashes when opening bookmarks on start page I have flashes of all colors of the rainbow (depending on currently active wallpaper).

Inconsistent German translation in the Search in Tabs function.

Thanks. This version restored some long lost performance for video player and scrolling that was gone since around Opera 58, on Linux/RS780L [Radeon 3X00].

I've never had problems with playing 1080 60fps videos, now my CPU is loaded to full 100% and videos do lag. After muting a video the CPU usage decreases, the equalizer eats 30%.
*You'd better pay more attention to the browser performance instead of removing well working features. Also, loot at the @burnout's comment in GX section where your new feature's 'Dynamic audio visualizer' consumes CPU in the same way (I doubt he has a weak PC) https://forums.opera.com/post/2247821080 60fps sample video unmuted/muted
The same video in O58 muted/unmuted (there are also CPU's spike up to 90%-99%, but not the permanent 100% all the time like in the new Opera versions)

Please get Opera to work with RevertSite (there's a similar function in FB Purity from same developer).
It reverts back from the horrible new FB design.
Author says a bug he's reported in Opera stops his extension working:

Why isn't there an option to permanently enable "Show more" closed tabs?

You did not solve anything. You make everything more complicated. We have to do a lot of clicks to do what was previously easier. -

Why Open the Web?
Despite the connecting purpose of the Web, it is not entirely open to all of its users.
When used correctly, HTML documents can be displayed across platforms and devices.
However, many devices are excluded access to Web content. -

Anyone else having trouble with contextual menus (right click) not showing? It seems like Opera freezes but if I click somwhere else it starts responding, like the menu was invisible.
Very annoying, had to revert to 70.0.3728.95, couldn't try 70.0.3728.189 as it's not in the repos anymore.
This is on Slackware Linux, 64 bits, KDE Plasma 5.19.4, Qt 5.15.0.

Funny thing: this doesn't happen with Opera Beta 71.0.3770.148

@rpsgc: Good question ...
Even more user actions needed now for things which worked easy with the old Tab menu. -

@kened I swear I looked there, damn alphabetical sorting
Actually, first I put the version in a script I use to download Opera's latest and the script didn't find it either, maybe just a timing issue.
Anyway, thanks for the heads up!
I'm at $WORK right now so I'll have to try later.
