Strange symbol keeps appearing.

@sgunhouse Opera was restarted many times without a change in the error.
And it appeared numerous times on the pc which we reboot each morning, so I'm fairly sure that wouldn't work. The first time it happened I ignored it assuming it would just right itself after reboot but it didn't.
An autoupdate in the background for the browser really shouldn't require a pc reboot.

@ivanfraser Actually, I was thinking about memory issues; restarting the browser should release any memory it was using.

@sgunhouse The latest update has caused the exact same issue. I'll post a snip of it with the eth appearing on the Amazon tracker:
Opera version is 76.0.4017.94

@ivanfraser Looks like Opera won't upload images now :0)

@ivanfraser It will, but the board has a size limit. Don't try to capture the entire screen, or else use an image editor to cut it down.

@ivanfraser Did you wait for the image to show up in the preview?

@leocg I tried a few times and waited a while and just got an error message as above in the post by ceedee. 
And just tried again, but still get the error.
(BTW, have reinstalled Opera manually since then.)

@ivanfraser Maybe the forum is having issues. Upload it somewhere else and post the link here.

@ivanfraser Hmm, the limit used to be 2 MB. I may need to ask the webmaster if they changed something.

Any idea what that text should have said?

@sgunhouse Hi. Yes.
It would have said something like "8 stops away". It's Amazon's delivery tracker.
The eth symbols have also appeared on other websites that my wife uses but are so random and she says just normal paragraphs and text. So not necessarily in that kind of live script.
The last thing she saw it in was in a Wordpress blog.

@ivanfraser The eth symbol has appeared on the amazon tracker map again with today's Opera update that got installed earlier.
Seems like every other automatic update I have to manually install with the offline exe.
Just daft.
Anybody trying to address this at all?
I've had no feedback or advice. And it can't just be me and my 2 pcs, considering they're different. One's a MS Surface laptop and the other's an Acer PC.
