        Please, fix (or make if you think this is not a bug) the SearchInTasb's active tab closing issue when the SearchInTabs popup closes too after active tab was closed.
        It should work the same as it worked in Tab menu -> https://forums.opera.com/post/233425

        Currently it closes.

          Weird effect for 'Add source' item (Preview button) on Personal news is still there.

          Also, as it was noticed by other user, if I hold and move mouse the button hides.

            still no option for auto-dark mode.

            if you ever change light or dark theme you can not go back on synced (settings) devices.

              Restart Opera to update to version 74.0.3876.0 shows about 10 seconds before it is ready resulting in a failed update

              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.

                @chas4 As usual. 🙂 It's been a while that I stopped restarting Opera based on it.

                  My flow doesn't work with photos. I upload a photo from my MacBook and on my desktop pc I see the photo, I click the "download' link it says "downloading, the downloading circle shows up, the progress shows 11 of 11 KB, but nothing is downloaded and when you hover the cancel button feels like opera is freezer/hanging there.!

                    Firefox has the new "https-only-mode" now. Would be a good idea for Opera too.

                        Discovered by chance. It seems that History management (tabs) has become better/more handy (unfortunately)in Edge Chromium than in Opera, in my opinion.
                        The button on toolbar allows to:

                        1. see recently closed.
                        2. see tabs from other devices
                        3. search field (it was enough to add this in previous TabMenu + restyling instead of inventing a wheel (SearchTabs popup)
                        4. window icon + expandable closed tabs list
                          *and,of course, it has an adequate highlighting effect in dark mode for the hovered items (light gray on dark gray background instead of bright white in Opera)

                          @andrew84 I also liked that if I click here ,
                          2020-11-19_001905.png
                          the whole window with all tabs will be restored.

                          If I click here (on expanded items),
                          2020-11-19_001952.png
                          only the single tab will be restored in current window.

                          If I still have a strong wish to open the tab in new window, there's a context menu 'in new window'.

                            I'd really love Deezer being added to the music player, because right now the music player serves no purpose for me since i can't use it.

                                    @andrew84 Many thanks for your insightfullness and warning.

                                    Opera is developing, no doubt, but what aims are the most important to us, common users? Players? It depends etc

                                    Apart from all what was published here I have problems discerning the heavily intertwined mentioned issues - once they look like bugs, once as requests. The same problem appears with my suggestions.

                                    For example, I am all for the tiles function(s) similar to those found in Vivaldi, but I do not want a carbon copy of Vivaldi team solutions. I see you, Opera dev team, may and are able to apply users' ideas without much efforts.

                                    Tell me please then, where I should place the necessary options (for tiles) I asked for to have a shadow of hope they would be read by the right people from Opera dev circles? Here are the "tile necessities" and more:

                                    Why you need to synchronize two windows and how?
                                    Workspaces - synchronize windows' slides
                                    Workspaces - desynchronize show/hide options
                                    Workspaces - desynchronize icons

                                    Vertical lines in Sidebar windows are not movable
                                    Bookmarks page has hidden movable border line
                                    Some vertical division lines on setting pages are not
                                    movable

                                    Sidebar opening/closing windows is inconsistent
                                    Sidebar - total mishmash

                                    Up the ante of Opera effectiveness
                                    Open thumbnails too in directory with images
                                    Opera does not play playlists (*.pls)
