      such issues is pretty useless and waste of time.

      It's not, they can do some optimization to make the animations show normally.
      After all it's something that each one of us does see.

        @pilis00 The tabs management on the TabStrip is broken (if comparing vs < 100 version )since 2023. So there are little chances the 'smoothness' (I don't mean only the particular animation) will be fully restored. Personally, I've lost a hope already.
        I don't why this happen, my guess the culprit is the 'islands' feature but I can be wrong.
        *Maybe if in future there will another global redesign where the 'flat' design (not 'modular') will be again in trend and hyped, then all the tabs management issues disappear at once.

          @andrew84 honestly I didn't try to see the animations on the pre-100 versions, as I was a Chrome user back then.

          At least, the animations of the tabs in Opera are at 144Hz, unlike Chrome and other browsers who still keep it at 30 or 60Hz.

          Still, a major redesign is unlikely to come any time soon, but I for one really enjoy this design. Just some tweaks or optimizations to the animations and that's it.

            @pilis00 ok, I understand.
            I simply use what works/looks better for me.

              @pilis00 Btw, I tried to check tab closing animation in Edge (both the latest by default version and with 'Try the new look and feel of Microsoft Edge' toggle switched on) and it seems that there the animation works like previously it worked in Opera (<100 versions). So maybe the 'shrinking' style animation was invented by opera.

                @andrew84 for me it still feels that the animation is not optimized at times.

                Anyway, I moved to Opera since December, after Chrome deactivated uBO, and Opera has been my daily driver since then - no issues, especially as uBO will remain in Opera.

                I noticed the animations in Edge are also not adapted for 144Hz screens, they still run in 30 or 60Hz.

                  I can't comment here because I don't have such screen.
                  But if animation actually works smoother on 60Hz screen, that's more important for me than the high Hz numbers support.

                    @andrew84 for me it looks super laggy but that's mainly because my eye got used with 144Hz.

                      After 5-10 minutes of fullscreen video playback, the fullscreen closes, and font issues return, and the entire theme is white, just like in the previous version.

                        @yuseijaden what's your GPU? Integrated or not?
                        I described the same issue but without relation to full screen exit. Animated themes simply crash.

                          There are some visual inconsistencies in the menus too, especially in the addons one.

                            How difficult can it be to add Qwant and Ecosia to the search engine choices? A lot of us are moving to EU products as much as possible and would prefer a search engine that is not coming out of the US.

                              @spike666 you can add them by yourself manually.

                                It would be good if the active tab had more of a highlight color.

                                  @pilis00: Yes, but you cannot set it as default and hence always have to use the shortcut (possible, but not so "handy" because sometimes forgetting it 😉 )...

                                    Some other small annoyances I found:

                                    The icons for sounds and notifications of the website are too big comparing to the rest of the icons on that menu.

                                    Also, the sides are not fully covered by that white-ish border.

                                        @yuseijaden ok. I thought it's my weak and old integrated gpu.
                                        But it looks like animated themes are broken.

                                          @spike666 It depends on them wanting to make an agreement with Opera.

                                          Anyway, you can add any search engine, you just won't be able to set them as the default one.

                                            @pweiden You're right, the shortcut is problematic. The issue I have most often is that when you use a search not generated from the address bar, such as with the popup when you highlight something on a page, it uses the default only, there is no way to insert the shortcut.

                                            This shouldn't be that difficult to add, and I considered switching to Vivaldi but I don't really like it.
