@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.

Just in case, reminding regarding the video pop-out improvement suggestions.

@kened Only a few lines and there's nothing there saying that Opera will have Windows 11 looks.

@kened There's already an option to go back to the original video.

@andrew84: It's been a long time. I had forgotten the title of the video.

@leocg: “We are exploring our options but our goal will be to bring Opera to the Microsoft Store as soon as possible. So far, we’ve seen a bit more user-friendliness in the new Windows 11 UI and, of course, any such changes that make our users’ lives easier on Windows are welcome.”

@leocg: Yes. But it is more costly to have to go back to the tab to watch the video in full screen than if there was a button or double mouse click to make the video go full screen.

@kened Exactly what I said, they may consider the new Windows 11 looks for the future but there's no affirmation that Opera UI will have a Windows 11 style.

@kened If I were to watch a video in full screen, I would do it from the beginning.

If I was watching it in video pop out and needed to do it in a bigger size, I would return to the original video or simply resize the pop out.

@leocg: Are you reading the text? When you read "Windows 11 UI" what do think they are talking about?

@kened If I don't mistake, Opera already used to have blur in the UI along with semi transparent elements/panels (somewhere in 30-40 versions, Win Vista/7 era).
And the old design sometimes looks much more modern the the current one.
