      Hardware age may explain it.

        One of the important details is that the video/graphic driver is: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (version 1:1.0.16-1)

        Also, the same problem occurs in the chrome browser on the same system (Debian, etc.)

          I have the same problem.
          All the extensions are disabled, already clean the brower, etc.
          The problem apears after the two last updates:

          Specs:
          Opera ver: 71.0.3770.198
          OS: Unbuntu 20.04.1 LTS X64 Kernel 5.4.0-48 generic
          CPU: AMD Ryzen 2700
          GPU AMD R9 390 Driver: amdgpu 20.0.5

            Try upgrading the kernel to 5.7 or newer.
            This happened to me. I had a Ryzen APU with a proprietary driver installed and after an system update, screen tearing everywhere.
            Installed 5.8 kernel and all is well now

              Same issue, graphical glitches in top-left. Was fine until opera updated.

              Here's a neofetch screenshot for specs:

              Opera Version is 71.0.3770.148

                    I had the same problem, just disabled hardware acceleration, and the glitch is gone after restarting Opera.

                      It solves, but it is a temporary solution because in some content you need hardware acceleration

                        Same here. Switch-off of hardware acceleration solved the issue. We have the issue with Ubuntu and LinuxMint and similar machine types (Lenovo Thinkpad workstations).

                            Update: I filed a bug with the Opera folks. Unfortunately their bug tracker system is not open to "normal" folks like us.

                              If I disable hardware acceleration then the right mouse button doesn't work anymore. So I just have to live with the glitch until there is a solution.

                                  I presume only in the Opera window?

                                  Otherwise: can't confirm. Mine is Thinkpad w/ build-in mouse & pad plus external USB mouse. All buttons working.

                                      It was wrong, on my desktop the right button doesn't work either and I can't open the opera button on the top left with the hardware acceleration off.
