What on earth is this new UI

Now that there is no way to go back to the old layout i was wondering if there are any other browsers yall recommend.

So, should we all just install an older version of Opera and turn off updates?

If you haven't fixed it already, go to C:\Users*username*\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera GX Stable and edit the "Local State" file you can change this from true to false it should fix it, well it did for me

gxx_flags":{"enabled":false,

[@VibrantSpectator said in [Compilation]Discussions on the new Opera GX UI/Layout:

The new opera gx layout is a bit annoying to get used to especially how everything is smaller. yes that does give more space for the main window but I would prefer it if you could either choose or customize it more. while having this new layout like this is indeed more sorted based on category but I would still like to have the option to have the tools as they were and larger.

a positive change about the new layout is this setting bar. it's much more intuitive than the old way too navigate the main settings and such

The removal of the old UI option sucks. The new UI looks worse and disrupts the flow of my searching, now that everything looks different, and it should be added back. There is no good reason not to have the ability to just chose which you want

@Caraway The old UI probably will/is being removed, as usually happens when there is a layout change in a software.
