Do amazing things with tabs in Opera browser – split, trace, and decorate

there is a bug where if you have multiple workspaces with their own tab islands and switch between them regularly, the workspaces that you were not on when you close the browser do not save the tab islands in them. So when you open up that workspace again, it's just a bunch of tabs with no islands
Has this bug been fixed yet? And if not, is there an estimate to when it'll be fixed?

If you want a split screen with multiple windows, all you have to do is hit Windows + (arrow key). Eg if you want one window on left and another window on right, Windows + L arrow for one window and Windows + R arrow for the other. That way is so much simpler than this new feature, and the new feature makes the browser unusable for when I want to drag & separate tabs.

@annoyed-at-updates: try mouse gesture. It is more efficient.

@annoyed-at-updates: if you move tabs to an additional window just to create a split screen there's a chance of losing every open tab you had open. Power goes out, you close the "main" window without previously closing the temporary one, and now everything is gone. If there are tabs you haven't opened in a while they might not even show up in history for the last time you opened the browser. As for drag & separate - just release the tab above the address bar area, it's really not that hard to figure it out

@besik33 I appreciate that suggestion! I personally stay away from mouse gestures, because they're too easy to trigger inadvertently when I don't want them - but they're a good option to have available to turn on or turn off, depending on how precise you are with your motions and/or how precise/reliable your pad is.

Two thoughts:
1 - I didn't state it in this thread, but my main complaint with this new tab-splitting feature in Opera is that it's introduced a new instability into the browser that wasn't there before. Ever since Opera introduced this feature, now any attempt to move or manipulate a tab with a Google Meet call immediately crashes the browser.
2 - We just have different experiences. I'm not sure how to account for that, I just know that my experience isn't the same as yours in a couple ways that are relevant:
-Releasing the tab above the address bar, like you suggested, has only worked for me if I turn off the split tabs feature in Opera.
-I've never had a situation where I visited a site, and it didn't show up on my history unless I specific set up the browser not to include it in my history - and I've never had a site removed from my history simply by dragging a tab or splitting the screen, etc. In other words, if I've ever had my computer go out for whatever reason while using two windows on split screen, I've always been able to restore my session by identifying the sites I was on as separate entries in my history.

@arandomdoggo: It hasn't. I regretted restarting my pc which forced opera to update. Seems like every update brings new bugs

It would be nice to be able to close all tabs in an island but one; for close all tabs on the right but still within an island. Basically if we could get some additional closing options within a same island that would be great!

please add tab synchronisation of workspaces between devices. Right now there is no convenient way of syncing tabs between devices

It would be nice if Pinboards actually saved what you pin. The save feature has never worked.

Searching Tabs dialog often doesn't work (when I start typing in the Search Tabs dialog - Control-Space - disappears... I can retry, but the same thing happens.. .search dialog just disappears). Feels like a bug.
