I don't like the new design at all. No, I hate it!! As a graphic designer I am unable to work with this mess of bubbles and rounded corners! I downgraded back to version 99.X after 10 Minutes and will use another minimalistic browser in future. I'm still shocked and there's only one question: why, why, why...!?

I think the designer is a big fan of Star Trek…

Had to get back to the good old 99. The new one's really half-backed. Lost all my 1000+ tabs (yes, I know) the next morning after I upgraded to One. Guess what - wasn't happy about that. The same thing happened today - ain't going to One until you get it fixed, folks.

Please do tell us, what are you using those tabs for?
I'm genuinely curious.

does anyone know how to save all the tabs of the various "browsing contexts" to avoid losing them when opera restarts or crashes? I don't want to lose all the tab splitting I've done...

I use opera since as long as I remember, and this is easily the worst version. Buggy and crashes everyday, bad design, unnecessary changes (chatGPT clone? srsly?) and much more nonsense. I'll downgrade to 99.x for now and try it again in a while, if it's still bad I will leave Opera for good. I never thought such a day would come!

@vegelund I guess this has to do with my procrastination, i.e. leaving tabs open to get back to them later (although it often doesn't happen :)). But that's not the point. It could've been 20 tabs, they'd still be gone after this upgrade.

@pkt01 Sure and 1000+ tabs...
You open that many tabs in one browser, for what?

@alexswak I can‘t agree from my side. There are no real bugs with my version. ChatGPT has been added some months before, the new version has kind of its own, called Aria. But both, ChatGPT pure and Aria are not enabled by default. You don‘t have to use either. It‘s totally up to you.
I‘ve had Vivaldi as my main browser for quite a long time, and their updates caused issues anytime.
I agree on the UI issue. That‘s a case of its own. But let me guess: We all will be used to it by the end of the year. And issues will be adressed by developers hopefully. -

@vegelund why do you keep asking that? Just moments ago Opera crashed when I tried moving a tab to an island, and I only had about 20-25 open tabs. All gone again. Maybe better fix the underlying problem instead?

Because I am curious about what user scenario does 1000 tabs.

Hi @Lenmaer,
We're with ya! We brought up your concern a while ago. It appears Opera One does not meet WCAG (Accessibility) standards.
Opera Developers (and Leadership) have been silent about it.
Cheers

@pkt01 In this case, wouldn't you be better off with Vivaldi which claims expertise in tab handling even with that number of tabs?

@pkt01: the browser is a tool, and you are using it wrong, like trying to drive a nail using a screwdriver, you might do it eventually but not in the most efficient way. Tabs are meant to be temporary shortcuts relevant to your current browsing session. if you want to return to a page visited on a previous session there is a thing called "history" where you con do it so and if it is something really important that you don't want to miss later, there is a thing called 'Bookmarks' where you can store useful links to visit later.

I don't like the new update at all. It is confusing, not tidy and very unpleasant for the eye. If you switch between the workspaces, you get a stupid intro. Unbelievable, but how can you release such a bad update.
Hasn't this been extensively tested before? Ease of use is definitely something else. I want to know how to undo the update because I don't want to work that way. Otherwise I see myself forced to use other browsers. -
