      @burnout426 tried a few things, it seems to happen if you click a link before the search page finishes loading, but only if the search is the first thing you do in a new tab.

      That is:

      • open new tab
      • enter query in address bar
      • perform search
      • before results finish loading click a link
      • press back/alt-leftarrow
      • skip a page back to new tab

        Yep. That's what I was trying. Couldn't reproduce myself, but definitely believe you.

            Possible workaround:

            1. go to opera://flags/#enable-history-entry-requires-user-gesture
            2. set to "Disabled"
            3. relaunch browser

            Could be caused by a bug, where user gesture is not detected correctly before page has finished loading or something like that.

                    @mbartelsmanm Sorry to hear that ☹
                    Then I have no idea what else to do. (I assume you have tried disabling extensions etc.)
                    Hopefully this gets fixed soon, because this is a pretty annoying issue.

                      @davcadostal this solution is for what? about "back button skips a page"?

                            @panosv A few days now, tried to replicate the issue but failed every-time, even though it used to be relatively easy to replicate before.
