Me too :
after closing the page by pressing the home button, the page closes, but the address remains in the address bar. Refreshing the page helps - the address disappears from the address bar.Version : 117.0.5408.32

deathcat last edited by@raphaelbm: It's a simple logic. On the 13th, it allegedly came out and was sent to someone, it was installed on one computer during the check, but literally after a couple of hours, the update does not come to any other computer, and it's already the 19th, and it always happens when they revoke it. And who do you want an official statement from? As we can see, they themselves do not know what is going on there and are talking nonsense. They have another toy there in the form of Open Air instead of Chromium being updated in a timely manner with its holes.

A new Opera 117.0.5408.35 Stable update arrived on my Windows 10 today.19Feb24
There is no mention whatsoever as to why the base version 117.0.5408.32 announced Feb 13 never made it out there, This is really bad that Opera yet again made no official comment. Users suspect that Opera is learning too many bad habits from Microsoft.

@raphaelbm Yes, communication isn't always ideal. They call it an "stable update", although it's the first stable version for a whole lot of users at all.

@deathcat It’s pretty obvious. The update was supposedly released on the 13th and sent to someone. It got installed on one computer during testing, but just a few hours later, it stopped showing up on any other devices. Now it’s the 19th, and this always happens when an update gets pulled.
Who are you expecting an official statement from? Even they don’t seem to know what’s going on and are just making things up. Meanwhile, instead of keeping Chromium updated and secure, they’re busy playing around with Open Air.

@suraj6public Hi, You said: "Who are you expecting an official statement from? Even they don’t seem to know what’s going on and are just making things up."
Where do you get this information from? Do say - or are you just surmising.
I have seen no evidence over the years that Opera ever make an official announcement. Does Opera even see these comments?Raphael (dissilusioned again)

We're having Version 117 for two months already. Its Chromium is 132, whereas Chrome, Brave and Edge are on 135. Even Vivaldi has 134 already. What about security fixes? What about performance improvements?
Isn't Chrome on a six week release cycle? Why is Opera with Chromium 132 for nearly eight weeks?
I've been an enthusiastic Opera user for three years, but that's annoying.
Give me a reason for that! And a reason for sticking! I'm already writing this on Brave. -

@DerSchlingel It's basically the same as https://vivaldi.com/blog/lets-go-under-the-browser-hood-with-vivaldis-yngve/, but with Opera, it often takes longer.

@burnout426 I get it, but still I ask myself why even Vivaldi seems much faster, at least they patch every Chromium security very fast. And I wonder what that means for Opera securitywise.

They went 115 stable on November 27th, changed to 116 on January 8th and to 117 on Februar 13th.
In the first case it's 32 days if I'm correct, in the second it's 37. Now we're already waiting 58 days for version 118.
They could easily proceed to version 119 directly. -

@pilis00 I tested Brave the other day by the way. But I didn't like it. I think it's simply about looks and the missing sidebar.
Only alternative I'd consider by now is Vivaldi, which I keep as secondary on most of my devices.
