@raphaelbm I can't, I don't have access there.
Also I don't think the post address can be changed.

@leocg not to change the address on the post itself, but edit the link provided in the main 104 blog post to make it point to the correct link.

You being a moderator and being able to edit our comments, you may be able to edit that post too, no?

Selected tab hint is too subtle

Like, look at this:

It's almost imperceptible. The button-like design was already a bit annoying from v100, but now selected tabs are almost the same colour as non-selected tabs.

One thing I noticed though, is that the new colour matches the address bar colour. You can fix the user experience without bringing back the original colour and still make the selected tab more visually evident, by connecting the selected tab to the address bar. To fit this feature with tab islands, you can then also connect the island. It could look more or less like this:

And for tabs that aren't part of an island, it could look like this:

Using youtube consumes a lot of resources, even in 480p with a 12 minute video. any ideas?

@albano23 What would be "a lot of resources"?

@leocg In resources I mean CPU, almost 57 percent and in some moments over 100%, this does not happen with this version but it comes with the whole 104 series. In fact I want to watch videos in 1080p, and I have to download them. And that I have 32 ram, and intel 7-7700.

I think this should be reviewed, I do not even want to think about those who have an intel 5 or 3.

@albano23 Is hardware acceleration enabled?

@leocg yes it is active, but it says it only uses it when available

@albano23 And the first section of opera://gpu says that hardware acceleration is being used?

@albano23 OK, seems normal.

Maybe the videos are using a codec that is not hardware accelerated?

@leocg I do not know, the only thing I can tell you, is that they are 1080 videos or that you can put 1080, but I do not know if they use hardware acceleration, because as you can see, everything is normal in the data that I have sent you and I have been commenting. It is also true that I do not know where to look at the hardware acceleration in these videos.

@albano23 Right click on the video and check Statistics for Nerds. There you will see the codec used

Where the codec fixes for Opera on Linux? I got flatpak version and there still no fixes. Currently using Fedora at the moment and i cannot read streams or videos on most platforms. Most people think is the H264 issue.

@xb70 I manually downloaded and installed it on one Windows 10/64 computer without issue, wrt migration loss of personalization. Another pending....
