I've never had an issue with Opera before. But at the moment it keeps on crashing, whenever I try to save and download from pixlr.com/express to my laptop.
There's no issue with Safari, maybe it's Chromium related, I don't know. If anybody has the same issue and knows how to solve, please let me know. Many thanks in advance.

@DerSchlingel Opera One, Opera GX or Opera Air?

It's happening on my Windows laptop as well. But isn't on Edge.

The website is: https://pixlr.com/express

Unfortunately the pictures created are only available in the browser in which they were created. There's no sync, so I'm reliant on Opera hopefully working again, soon.

I've probably found the answer for it. Something has changed in the download mode by Pixlr.
I was given a hint by turning on "legacy mode" if I had problems with downloading. And it definitely worked. Changed the appearance to that, that I get when I use Firefox. No crashes any longer.
My guess would be: It's due to Opera being behind on Chromium. The other guess would be: It's due to identifying as Opera and therefore maybe as an outdated browser. If I've got the time, I'll be investigating.

I can confirm the crash. Just went to https://pixlr.com/express/, clicked "Create image", chose the first social media post, clicked "Create", clicked "Save" and chose to save as a png.

@burnout426 But when you turn on „Legacy Mode“ it won’t happen. As I guess, it‘s maybe because Chromium is some versions behind on Opera or it detects „Opera“ in the referrer and labels it as an „outdated“ browser.
But all of that didn‘t happen let‘s say some weeks ago.
I also got issues with Brave a while ago due to its privacy settings and on Firefox when I was wanting to edit text fields. Looks like they optimize for Chrome or Edge as it’s the case so often.

I filed DNA-123164 (FileSystem API crash) and DNA-123165 (specific crash on Pixir) for this, but they might be dupes of crash bug DNA-123156. Either way, crash IDs are logged and there are reproduction steps.

This has already been fixed internaly by DNA-123123, unfortunatelly didn't make it into this week release but already backported and will land with next stable update.
