        What worked for me was simply going to display settings, change the resolution of your monitor to whichever option, and then hit revert. Hope this helps 🙂

          This bug affects even Opera 83.0.4254.54 running natively on Wayland on Gnome and KDE Plasma. Is Opera developers aware of this old bug?

                  I know it's an old topic, but I found one reliable solution to those unwanted bits on the screen.. Add 'UBlock' to the extensions.. Right click the trouble spot, and create the block for it..

                        im not using linux, but i notice with opera every time I choose force dark themes on websites, this white strips appear on youtube videos and other web videos when they go into full screen, all i did was turn this option of and it sorted it for me.

                        Sorry if its late, but if it helps.

                          @hammersutd1983 nope youre on time its still there. You know it is so much time has passed... For a long of those years... My country is now struggling against russian aggression. It is has passed over 2 years, even bug tracker ticket got. But for over 2 years this bug is living in opera on linux. You know... Even my company, I'm working for, it is has banned opera. I'm tired of waiting for this bug to be solved.
