To prevent Opera from restarting and closing your incognito windows when switching between apps, you can try the following steps:

Disable Battery Optimization: Go to your device's settings and ensure that Opera is set to "No restrictions" in the battery optimization settings.
Keep Opera Active: Use the "Recent Apps" button to keep Opera running in the background instead of completely closing it.
Check Background Data Usage: Ensure that Opera has permission to use data in the background.
Use a Session Manager Extension: Consider using a session manager extension that can save and restore your open tabs and sessions.

[Request] Privated Workspaces

It'll be very helpful to have an option for workspaces to be in private mode (incognito mode), taking the place of private windows parted of our conventional Opera GX window, I think this feature will ease the windows administration and to prevent confusions entering the normal and private tab

Show page icon in private browsing mode

[[global:former_user]] — Invalid Date

In private window, page icons (favicons) are replaced with incognito icons. It's a remnant of an old Opera 12, where private tabs were in the same window as the normal tabs, so marking private tabs with separate icon helped distinguish them.

In the new Opera, it doesn't make sense to mark each private tab as private, because private tabs can only exist within separate (private) window. In this case, it is enough to mark only the window as private - which is already done by different address bar/window color.

Please consider removing this icon replacement. Removed page icons really make browsing difficult, especially when working with many tabs. Opera is the only browser with this pointless 'feature'.
