@andrew84: These blanks also happened to me, but after I used it a bit and restarted it, the spaces disappeared.

@kened: maybe you select large tiles.

Some suggestions summary list.

1. A tab's static sound indicator or simple animmation instead of the current equalizer which loads cpu. https://forums.opera.com/post/222598
2. Improve the video pop-out https://forums.opera.com/post/225402
3. Highlight icons on the sidebar if there are open tabs in workspace https://forums.opera.com/post/231474
4. Auto enabling wallpapers when switching dark/light theme https://forums.opera.com/post/234997
5. BABE improvements (quick action buttons and collapsable top sites) https://forums.opera.com/post/226533
6. Toggles for sections in the sidebar setup https://forums.opera.com/post/235868
7. More advanced sidebar's custom sites feature (aka web panel) https://forums.opera.com/post/234968
8. Speed dials search on start page https://forums.opera.com/post/233212
9. Normal (like in sidebar's bookmarks panel) highlighting for the items in bookamarks bar dropdowns
   https://forums.opera.com/post/234994
10. Additional button for search engines in the search popup https://forums.opera.com/post/208748
11. Return recent wallpaper in EasySetup and add 'show speed dials' and 'show search box' toggles for the star page. *If you bother about the EasySeup's 'compactness and cleanliness', then do separate options that only refer to the start page view. https://forums.opera.com/post/216422
12. Attach ads blockers to the sidear panels, currently ads are not blocked in sidebar panels (in Player panel or in custom
    site for instance).

@andrew84: I always use small blocks. But I tested with both.

@kened me too.
Here is regular vs large tiles, in both cases there's a wasted space in my case.

I can't confirm the bug (because I don't use latest versions of Opera daily) but some users have issues with mouse clicks on the left half of the screen. https://forums.opera.com/post/235013
I don't know if the bug occurs only in Stable or all channels are affected.

Big Sur has so many issues on the stable version, it has been two weeks and still no update??? It was released on developer, why hasn't it been backported???? (the fix for blank screens)

@johnd78 I installed few extensions and it seems working here (I first deleted 'Install Chrome Extensions' )

@andrew84 Yes, it is works. But only if the #native-chrome-webstore-installation flag is enabled.
