After relaunching after the update (after clicking relaunch button on help>about page) browser started with crash massage on top. I saw the message only once and later there wasn't.

Looks like that in this bulid SearchTabs doesn't keep 'recently closed' tabs and after restarting items are gone.
Also it doesn't show 'open' and 'recently closed' sections until removing items.

I can't minimalize Opera dev when I click on the _ minimize sign in the top right corner. Minimize works when clicking on the taskbar.
OS: Linux OpenMandriva Cooker, Kwin/Plasma 5.23.3.
Opera installed from RPM package.

Worth to add, this issue is absent on GNOME 41. I see it only on Plasma5.

Messing with opera://flags/#scrollable-tab-strip. Kind of neat. I'd say as of right now, scrolling with the mouse/trackpad works better than clicking the left and right arrows on the tab bar. Sometimes I have to click those multiple times before the strip will scroll. But, if I click too fast or too many times, it'll be like double-left-clicking the title bar and the window will restore down.

Shows promise though.

@burnout426 on top there's also small horizontal scroll bar which can be moved with mouse.
Anyway, the feature is raw. I noticed that new tab button [+] is a bit away from the last tab if the flag is enabled. Also, tabs become too small already (for me personally) when there arrows appear. As was mentioned. the should be options how to shrink the tabs.

Saw the bar, but didn't know it was clickable/draggable. Thanks for the heads up.

Yes. Noticed that right away too. It looks like the space is reserved for the right arrow button for when it appears.

Also, tabs become too small already (for me personally) when there arrows appear. As was mentioned. the should be options how to shrink the tabs.

Yes indeed. The arrows/scrolling needs to show up way sooner. Option to configure that would be great.
