@treego For me it seems to improve on 'Tab Icon/CPU' problem. It is not perfect yet but better than couple of recent versions.

@zalex108 The length of the company name is sometimes a problem, however there are real issues with EV SSL certificates:
- In order to be effective, users would need to modify their behavior when NOT presented with an EV certificate. However they do not.
- It is possible to mimic someone else with the corporation name by registering the same corporation in a different jurisdiction.
- The world's 10 largest sites don't use EV certificates
- EV certificates use the same encryption algorithms as DV certificates. When connecting to a website using domain validation, the connection is no less secure than EV. The important thing is not whether the company who owns the website has been registered in their local jurisdiction; the important thing is whether or not the connection between the browser and the server is actually secure.
- EV certificate installation and renewal cannot be automated.
- Many studies that apparently show that EV certificates are beneficial are commissioned by certificate authorities themselves.
- When the company that owns the website doesn't match the domain name, this leads to confusion.
- EV certificates do not support wildcards

Then it seems unnecessary.

Hello, Opera team!
Can you create a design with neon lights?
Or some option to enable this effect.BR

The browser has become very voracious on the processor, everything slows down. In other browsers everything is fine.

A little while back I noticed that after a Windows PC reboot Opera seemed to be using more CPU than before with both video and audio.
The bottom line is I have now switched to Firefox. Opera made my computer unusable. Sure it is a bit old but one day it was OK and the next day pretty much useless. Several people commented on the blog as have I. I waited a few weeks but it is now time for me to fix it.
Firefox plays video using even less CPU than the old Opera. With New Opera I could watch a youtube vodeo at 50% CPU (144p) and if I opened up another web page the CPU would go to 100% and often stick there. Minimising the video window for say 60 secs (CPU falls to 15% say) seems to allow CPU back down to 50% once window restored. It was even worse until I turned on the battery saver.
With firefox (AND at 360p) the CPU is about 15% and I can use other web browser windows freely.
Audio was even more irritating since it should be very light but wasn't. CPU for audio was less than for video.
System Model Aspire 5732Z
OS Name Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium
Version 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1 Build 7601
Processor Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU T4400 @ 2.20GHz, 2200 Mhz, 2 Core(s), 2 Logical Processor(s)
Installed Physical Memory (RAM) 4.00 GB-
Firefox also has a F***ING BORDER on the window. Secret windows borders are a BUG not a feature. Sure, it is possible to live with it by tracking the cursor shape closely but who wants to?
-
UI changes seem to be being made for the sake of it. Make sure your accountants and admins and lawyers are using Opera and seek their feedback. They won't like it I promise.

I recently went to FF from Opera on Mobile too. Seems Much faster.
-
This unnecessary burning of CPU cycles cannot be good for the planet!
-
I was not able to log in to this blog from Firefox - that is an underhand trick that does not look good. NOT GOOD AT ALL.
I'll miss the VPN for geolocked sites but I guess I can come back for those or try proxies.
This is the first time for many many years that Opera is not my main browser.

The question has to be asked - Are you mining bitcoin with the browser?
