Option to "open in new tab" missing

Today, I updated the opera browser and when I opened it after the update notice that when you long press on a link the option to "open in new tab" is no longer available.

Version: 88.0.4661.83415
Android 15
OnePlus 13

The option was just below "open link" and on top of "open in incognito".

Was this change intentional?

@marvin79 Sorr of. Open link now opens in a new (background) tab, i guess they decided if you wanted to open it in the same tab you wouldn't have bothered with the menu.

@sgunhouse that's exactly why I came to the forum.
I dislike that they just renamed it.
It's just confusing and scares me, I want to open it in a new tab and not override my current.
(Btw when will we finally get the same function like Firefox has in mobile and EVERY browser on desktop has "copy image url" so we don't need to open the image first in a new tab, go the url bar and copy it.)
