      I think an awesome and convenient feature would be a Manual snoozing of tabs, right-click the tab and select snooze, if you know you wont use or visit a tab in a while, it wont use up any resources pointlessly.

        • agree; i cant up-vote but there is +1 from me, this feature is just what opera's one missing feature (for me) and my life would be complete 😃
          (and a fix of "at start-up tabs goes to workspace1" but this is a other subject)

        • fact 1: tab + "snoozing", "sleep", "unload", etc is actually called "tab discard" (for chromium)

        • fact 2: there is actually "best auto/manuel tab-unloading" feature that being with ram-limit for opera just not like any-other browsers so ram limit makes "auto unload tabs" but its actually too functional;

        • this function is output of optimistic abusing ram-limit

        • why ram-limit?; network-limit doesnt functions and causes low speed, cpu-limit functions but causes freezes on opera, so ram-limit work greatly without any downsides

        • why this function doesnt well known?; this function only starts when a bit time passes with setting ram/cpu-limit to minimum

        • does what?; after some time passes with minimum ram-limit, opera starts to slowly discard all tabs until right'in-tab (tab that are we in to use) lefts and after that even changing tabs only right-in tab is not discards and passed tabs are gets immediately discard, i call this with one-tab mode

        • one-tab mode usage; literally surfing only on right'in-tabs so usefull for extremely friendly-resource'usage (also means best resource usage for a browser :D)

        • but the-main is starts now; when disabling ram-limit one-tab mode stops but when re-activing it opera immediately discards all tabs expect right'in-tab so there is manuel tab discarding

        • but i also want to talk of ram-limit's real usage, does what?; after one-tab mode actived setting ram-limit to spesific amount opera starts to keep open only specific amount of tabs that doesnt more than setted ram-limit with discarding one tab when every time going to new right'in-tab, i call this with "dynamic-tabs mode"

        • dynamic-tabs mode usage; usefull for when wanting only keep open certain amount of tabs

        • alternatives: ther is no alternative of "auto tab discard" like how opera does but manuels are here;

        • firefox based browsers has "unload tab" with right click to tab and obviously firefox based the zen has "unload space" also "unload all other spaces"

        • interestingly (for me because i didnt know chromium even can have manuel tab discard) ungoogled-chromium based the helium has "hibernate" for tab ~~but sadly not any for opera...~
