Over the past few days, I've had three or four cases where I clicked on the new tab '+' and Opera instantly closed and reopened (w/o the open tabs).

Please restore the "X" button for closing tabs, available for touchscreen devices.
Also, please bring back the button for returning to the main screen.
These were two functions I used frequently in older versions of Opera...

@spike666 weird. I also upgraded it on my laptop and it does start longer but not as lon as on the much more powerful desktop

@aokog said in Opera 102.0.4880.40 Stable update:

"You deserve a better browser" - We deserve better developers of this browser and maybe finally some decent testers. Every new release, there are such bugs that we just sit down and cry. When will some feedback to the button that adds something to Flow? On the desktop version of Opera I press that button and nothing, not even a blue notification on the icon on the sidebar. I do not mention the problems with connecting devices to Flow, just read your forum. From a good browser you have made an ugly, broken crap.

Such buggy stable builds can be caused not only by devs or QA. It can be also a Product Owner/Manager that knows about all the bugs, but still pushes the team to release new versions. Anyway - these are/were silly decisions to give us such unbaked piece of software. Shame on you, Opera.

@hectormaciasa1979 hi, nothing to do with Opera here, but I suggest you switch from Epic Games Launcher to Heroic Launcher. It's open source and not so dummy slow/buggy/terrible UX. You can use it to download and launch Epic, GOG and Amazon games. You can also make it launch unrelated games downloaded separately and actually, probably any other software you want (didn't test this last one, but I assume it can, based on how it can be set to launch any unrelated game you have installed). It also has a setting to add the game to the Steam launcher, but I've never tested that. I think you can manually add unrelated stuff to Steam's launcher too though.

Please turn off the sound with the splash screen on start up — or at least make it an option. It’s annoying and unnecessary, and like auto playing sound with videos, at work it can cause the user trouble.

@genegold: In fact, why the splash screen at all after the initial install!

The issue of the cut-off DevTools at the top is still present in this release unfortunately.

@genegold: Just did it again. Several tabs open, click on + to open a new tab and instantly the splash screen is playing and a new sessions starts (w/o all the open tabs). It's happened every day since I installed this version.

@genegold And again 55 minutes later. It seems to happen when there's a lot of tabs open, but so far I've not been able to replicate it intentionally. Certainly having to use History a lot.

@genegold: And again, in the process of closing tabs, at the third remaining, clicking on the 'X' did it. Something is screwy.

On windows version, spacing above tabs, on the top of window is not awailable.
This option does not work any more

This option is available in the settings of the browser (windows version) :
Réglages (Alt + P) > Navigateur > Interface utilisateur

@genegold: During the 3-4 hour session Opera crashed/instantly restarted 6 times, all the result of either trying to open or close a tab.

Look at what you have written in opera://gpu.
If there is software accelerated everywhere, then try turning on the chrome://flags/#ignore-gpu-blocklist
Should help

@genegold: This goes on and on: in SUMo pro, I just now with a right click opened the MS Teams website. The flash screen (and sound) ran, but there was no evidence of Opera closing, as the same tabs remained open. I have no idea what's causing this, but it is specific to this build of Opera 102.

@genegold: Tip! To get rid of the annoying splash screen, you can delete opera_gx_splash.exe file from the installation folder

Youtube framerate is also lower. On Edge it works but on Opera the videos are janky. Another quality "feature" of the stable release

Also, if I want to comment here on the Opera website with an Opera account, if forcibly changes the browser's sync account. That's just unfortunate. It should be two separate things.
