@burnout426 I'll try installing the old if it will let me because this "feature" is a deal breaker for me too.

I can't believe there is no way to disable this annoyance now apart from downgrading.
I used the following link to suggest an improvement:
https://opera.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/9In Opera Settings, on the left, there is a "Rate Opera" link which I used to tell whoever receives it how pathetic this "feature" is. Best thing is it can be used multiple times.
Maybe if they get a few hundred negative comments, they'll start considering adding two lines in their code so we can Disable this Unwanted crap.
But then again, there is no limit to devs arrogance.
Remember devs, having a tabbed browser is useful for having Multiple tabs. That means that having 10+ tabs opened is not a rarity. Your tabs tooltip is Not a good thing in that case. Find another way to implement it or let us disable it.

I just made this account after using Opera for the past decade. It was the only browser I've used but this "feature" that Chromium based browsers implemented and blocked the ability to disable is the worst thing that happened. I just can't get my head around why? Why in the name of all saints every single chromium based browser implemented this feature and disable the option to get rid of it? From Opera to Chrome and even Edge. I just cant understand and it bothers me that neither Opera devs or other browsers devs wont bother with fixing this worst feature in the history of browsers. In all cases the forum admins responds that the option is gone but wont say why or if they will get that option back. I've switched to Firefox for now. This is the only one that it doesn't have that horror feature. If Opera will decide to eliminate or at least implement that option to remove it then I'll switch back. I've seen hundreds of posts and people complaining about this issue on other forums too but still no fix.

@leocg If you install the beta version of Opera you can find that option on settings menu but if you disable it nothing happens. The popup window is still there. I've just tried it with Opera beta version 85.0.4341.13.
This setting does work in dev version 87.0.4366.0 - you likely have to wait a little more then.
Or you mean disabling entire popup? This not possible
Here this setting disables just tabs list part of it; current tab description keeps popping up always. -

@donq I was talking about the entire popup. In the last versions it was possible to disable them from flags now you cant find the hover board tabs option. Its a shame that I have to give up on this browser but I have to. I've checked on dev version that you mentioned and yeah you're right you cant disable that popup. Given the fact that the dev version is like 3 versions ahead of stable opera its safe to say it will be a long time until maybe one dev will listen to these kind of complains. I'll check in a few months time. Until then I'll have to get used to Firefox.

In this latest stable version (85.0.4341.18) it can already be disabled. Which is located in Settings / Advanced / User Interface / "Show tabs from the same domain in tab tooltip".

@daniellb The option is to disable the list of tabs from the same site. The pop-up with the page name/info can't be disabled, but it was never possible.
It was a flags option, so it absolutely was possible...not sure what you mean?

Theres a big difference between the word 'disabled' and what you've quoted there...

@leocg I'm talking about that big pop-up window that keeps showing when you hover the mouse above a tab. It's a fairly new feature. In the past, it was just a standard windows information pop-up. Small in comparison with this new one. Why can't we get back to that?
Are we talking about the same thing:
- this is not very big popup IMO...
