@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. -

I, and most of the community, hate this new "Opera One" thing, just go back to the old one, it's so much better, or at least remove this round border thing as well as putting the sidebar icons on top as it should be, I'll be leaving and using another browser until it's fixed, Opera has been my favourite browser since 2011 and it hurts me to change, please, give us back our favourite broswer

My only complaint so far (after about 3 minutes of using the new ONE) is many of the old speed dial tiles don't work and now my speed dial page is 6 columns and 18 rows of unfamiliar gibberish.

@bdsign I just uninstalled the new version and reinstall the latest 99.x version. Than disabled any update, also in my Firewall. Make sure to backup everything before uninstall. That's it! Cheers L.

Tabs are microscopic, and as of the newest update Opera crashes when I click on tabs. Shiny doesn't mean better. I've been having to fight this "sleek new UI" the entire time, and the previous version was just better. Every new version is 'different' and adjustment to them is always an experience, but this new trend with companies to think that tiny buttons are sleek and sexy is a nuisance.
Having watched the AIs develop over the last few years, it naturally leaves me concerned about the quality and skew of the articles this AI will be finding for me. Every instance of a chatbot being plugged into social media has so far turned into a nazi, and several several media sites, social media, and companies are embedding AI into their content to enforce a specific viewpoint, which limits the amount of information seen. Yes, this does hint towards the leanings of the programmers and companies, but it also presents an unfair and unbalanced marketplace of ideas. An echo chamber, if you will.
In all fairness, I find it ridiculous that the update 'thanks us' for swapping to Opera One, when it was a mandatory update that forced us to it. Give us a choice to use the AI at least. -

@opera-comments-bot Was this a bad excuse to dismantle your good, unprecedented and easily accessible ad blocker? because now there's ads everywhere and you don't talk about it. That's scummy as it gets.

As others have done, I reverted to Opera 99 and disabled auto updates. Maybe I'll check out a newer version down the road. Or not.
