@marcoshrq One issue per topic please.

In comparison, here's the expected behavior as seen in Chrome:

What I mean is, the dragged text should open up a new tab where I dropped the text, not on the left every time.

@argus733 User data is stored in the profile directory. In opera://about you can see the path to it.

Unfortunately, this feature does not seem to be important to Opera devs, not even enough to warrant a reply to your thread. The tab cycler used to be very good with a vertical list of tabs and full-screen previews, but now it's just terrible - tiny thumbnail previews, horizontal that only displays a handful of tabs, the mouse constantly messing things up. Because of this, I have migrated from Opera to Vivaldi.

Strange hill to die on. This change which balks at the face of its users seems representative to me that those who operate this browser have decided not to make this browser function for its users, but for themselves.

I'm not sure what the catalyst was that changed Opera from being a user friendly browser to something that actively suppresses feedback.

Personally, I'm going to try Vivaldi. It seems that not only does it have this feature, but some other features I've been thinking about. It's frustrating as I thought this was going to be a browser I could use for a long time, but I guess it just didn't pan out that way.
