• Pinboards tiles visual bug when dragging was not fixed (visually the whole page is being dragged instead of a single tile).

• Rows with toggle buttons in Setting are still flickering when clicking.

"To get the update automatically just restart your browser and you’ll be good to go!" You need to wait about 20 seconds on macOS as the Relaunch Now buttons shows up to fast before Opera is ready to update (if you click it to early the update fails)

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.

Probably, in Opera Developer 80, we gonna have some blur on sidebar, maybe too, on title bar.

@kened I don't see any reason for that to happen.

@leocg: Read this: https://www.techradar.com/news/could-opera-be-taking-inspiration-from-windows-11-already
They gonna take inspiration on the style of Windows 11. All 11's menus have blur.

About pinboards: It would be helpful to open video links within the pinboards page. I meant: I want to create a collection of video links and watch them within the pinboards page, without having to access each link in a new tab.

@leocg: I meant: why not improve the video pop out?! It could allow multiple instances of video pop out, it could have a full screen button, etc.

@kened It happens that way for YouTube links.

@kened None of those things make sense to me. Video pop out is exactly the opposite of full screen, so having a full screen option in it would be kind of weird.

@kened The article doesn't say that. And don't forget that it's more of an opinion, an analysis article.

@leocg: Yes. Only Youtube video works that way.

@leocg: "Breaking down our interview"
"After our chat with the team,"
"said Stefan Stjernelund, product manager Opera for Android and Arjan van Leeuwen, Product Engineering Lead for Opera Desktop."
etc etc etc
This was an interview.

@leocg: You may want to watch temporarily(or rewatch some moments) in full screen without switching tabs. Not very important option but may be handy sometimes. FireFox and Yandex browser have this option for their popups. I think it's simple to implement this.

*Personally, I'd prefer double clicking on the video to go full screen and back (it works in FireFox this way).
I also still miss option to pause/play videos by clicking on it (like it worked previously in the original Opera's popup)

@leocg: I respect your opinion, but think with me: you are watching a video class while reading a text; during the video lesson, something is shown in the video and you need to see it in detail. For me it would be helpful to have an option to go full screen without having to go back to the tab and go back once again to the pop out video.

The exactly what I meant.
