      @neewuser I can't confirm the 1st part here. But I don't use the One version daily, so there's only few bookmarks and folders. Maybe the amount of bookmarks/folders plays a role here.

      Regarding the 2nd part. I can't even drag and drop tabs here even into displayed folders on bookmarks bar. The black horizontal line doesn't appear here and the folder's dropdown simply closes.

      *One more issue (inconvenience) I noticed is that when middle clicking to open bookmarks and the dropdown stays opened I can't close the opened background tabs because no 'x' is displaying. First need to close the dropdown. In pre One version it's possible to close the background tabs while the dropdown is expanded.

        The tab strip is still messed up if quickly moving tabs (looks fixed in Dev).

          Mysteriously has Opera for Windows started working normally again. Perhaps Opera server has been under attack/offline? No time to waste on this.

              Yeah. Looks a like a consequence of only showing the X on tabs when you mouse over them. Might be possible to fix mouseover events on tabs when a menu is open.

                @burnout426 Seems so.
                Another one thing I don't like is that the closing cross is small and at first sight users need to be very precise.
                The highlighting box helps here, but the box looks ok only in light theme for active tabs and partially Ok for background tabs in dark mode.
                In light theme on background tabs and in dark mode for active tabs the highlighting box is almost invisible.

                  This blue line would be a good indicator of an active tab. It would be much faster to find the active tab when we have many tabs open.

                    Please, add option to turn off the 'tab island' feature completely.

                    I don't use tab islands, but I noticed that single tab's blue underline is shorter if the tab is duplicated in 'island'

                    Also, if last tab in island is active while collapsing island, after expanding the island again the + button will be behind the tab.

                      @andrew84 and additional indicators are absolutely necessary, i.e. naming and color for grouped tabs.

                      *for example the following color scheme.

                      Also, maybe I'm understanding smth. wrong but I don't understand a bit the tabs counter in move to context menu..

                      I created 3 islands
                      1st contains 3 tabs, 2nd contains 5 tabs, 3rd contains 2 tabs

                        Filed DNA-113321 for this. Not sure if it's an easy fix or not to accept mouseover events on the tabs while a menu is open. Guess we'll see.

                          Interesting, why the island is automatically closes if there's only 1 tab left?
                          The behavior should be optional, I guess.
                          Maybe I can keep 1 tab temporarily and later I'll add more.

                          *Edge allows to keep only 1 tab in group and this is logical in my opinion.

                          **and I think that tab island should be automatically pinned after creation(like in Edge).

                              Some users on Reddit have been saying their tab islands just disappear sometimes, but they're not sure how. I wonder if they're running into this or not. I'll have to ask.

                                You still haven't fixed the problem that dragging the right edge of the scrollbar on Linux drags the whole window instead of scrolling.

                                  @burnout426 I think currently this is an intended behavior in case of a single tab.
                                  Most probably their logic is that island containing 1 tab = standalone tab and thus the island automatically closes.

                                    I'm glad to see that the scrollbar issue was fixed in Windows, but it still happens on Linux (Ubuntu 20.04)

                                      I wonder why pinned tabs look like a group (island).
                                      Pinned tabs shouldn't look like thematically grouped tabs, I think.

                                      2023-11-20_150423.png

                                      *And I repeat the suggestion one more time: tab's height should = island's height. Only inside island tabs should be slimmer (= current height).

                                          The setting is to create island while opening links in new tabs.

                                            I would like to mention that although the scrollbar issue was solved on a maximized window on Windows (which was the most frustrating part of this bug), it still happens on restored windows on Windows.

                                            Which means, the border is still an extension of the title bar for some reason
