@vladbabinets Hello, thank you for your feedback! Updating to a new version takes time as our developers need to integrate Opera's unique features and ensure seamless functionality. Once that’s done, our QA team thoroughly tests each update for bugs, security issues, and compatibility. This meticulous process helps us deliver a stable, reliable experience rather than rushing updates that may lead to issues. We truly appreciate your patience!

@marinaz909 Oh my god, I'm impressed, you always replied to me whenever I reported a bug, this never happened on other browser's forums/communities. It's clear how you do care about the bugs the community reports.

@marinaz909 It's visible you truly care and it's something that again, nobody else cared when I reported on other browsers forums. The fact that you'll continue support uBO and maybe other MV2 extensions what the game changer that made me switch from Chrome to Opera.
There is still some room for improvements, currently the most annoying issues are these two, for me:

@beboss Thank you for your feedback! We're sorry to hear you're experiencing lag and slow performance on your device. We'll look into it more closely. In the meantime, you might try clearing your browser cache or disabling any unnecessary extensions to see if that improves performance. We appreciate your patience!

@marinaz909 I'd wish Opera to be as fast on startup (under the same circumstances) as Edge does.

@marinaz909 there is also a problem if I refresh a new tab. The wallpaper and the icons do reload, you can see in the GIF:
The same thing also happens if I open a new window (not tab)

I think the reload is not a problem here because the start page is also a web page (if I don't mistake). The problem is the 'reload' is slow.
*In Classic theme in light mode after I click the 'refresh' button the background flashes twice: first it becomes of the same color as theme accent (tabstrip background color), then it becomes some almost white and then wallpaper appears. It takes 1 - 2 seconds. In pre-One version it happens almost immediately without the double or triple flashing.
*the similar happens when I right click 'Edit theme' on start page. The whole screen flashes here before the themes popup appears.
*And the issue I reported already is that when I switch dark/light mode while the start page is open the background flashes. In pre-One version the dark/light mode switching is flawless - no wallpaper flashing.

In other browsers like Vivaldi and Firefox this doesn't happen.

FireFox uses other engine, not chromium. If I don't mistake, the flashes are mostly chromium's issue. I believe Vivaldi also suffers from flashes but less obviously thanks to how the theme color affects the background.
I just can compare how well (regarding the start page) it looks in older Opera (not One version) and in recent builds.

In my case it never did, only in the startup animation but never when I refreshed the new tab or opened a new window.
There is also a problem when I close the browser (or a window in case I have multiple opened) in which the wallpaper becomes black for a half-second until the window disappears.

@pilis00 I can suspect that the situation is worse in Opera One because of the new 'themes' feature.
It's ok in old Opera too.*But the core 'flashing' issue is in Vivaldi as well. I just now installed Vivaldi and checked by simple test - I open link in a background tab (wait while it loads) and then activate the tab = a white flashbang before the content appearing.

@marinaz909 found another issue.
On many pages, there is a weird display of the corners, like in this photo:
