      Don't want to add more negativity here and I appreciate the new functionalities Tab Search icon brings. But I REALLY hope the future versions would resume the Tab Menu icon on its previous location. I can't see a reason why these two icons can't live next to each other in the upper right corner of the Opera window. I have been using Opera since 2006 and really love many of the "shortcut" functions as the Tab Menu Opera has.

        Some 'positive' news.
        In latest Dev build the #search-in-closed-tabs flag is added ( Enable recently closed tab search in Search in Tabs feature). Disabled by default (work in progress).
        But it's unclear how it will look when finished because currently after enabling the flag both 'close' and 'open' tabs are shown all together (not separated visually).

          Guys, like, what the hell were you thinking? Who made such a stupid decision to remove one of most important buttons to replace it with something that If I will use I will activate it with CTRL+ Space?!?! return that damned button where it is supposed to be. And don't even plan on removing it any time soon.

          Also thanks to burnout426 for reveling flag. Many thanks to you!

            I am missing a very important feature for me: Where is the recently closed icon in the tab-bar? I do not want to open the history. Why this feature was removed?

                  What? This little button was one of the best feature?

                  For me it was the "Quickly re-open accidentally closed tabs" button?

                    I totally agree. You should return the button in the next update.

                      Exactly! It's the "quickly reopen accidentally closed tabs" button.

                      I wish we could contact these developers.

                        the one that allowed you to open up a closed tab from a list.

                            No, it is/was Opera button. Read here: https://forums.opera.com/topic/39170/where-is-the-recently-closed-tabs-tab-menu-button-on-the-top-right

                              @burnout426 Thank you so much too. Without your trick Opera would be so much more unpleasant to use

                                It was like the most useful function ever, I was using it everyday. Please press F to pay respects.

                                      @andrew84 I’m completely agree with you.

                                      Moreover, we must continue to express ourselves on this unfortunate issue, until the developers respond to our request: Don’t replace the "Tab menu".

                                        I just got the update, and I came to voice my own opinion about the desire to keep the recently closed tabs button.

                                        I like the Workspace feature which was also added, but will not be using the Search in Tabs feature. I've already removed the shortcut for it.

                                          I have contacted customer support asking them to bring back the feature, in the meantime I am uninstalling this browser as a means of protest until they bring it back. Yes I know you can enable the feature through flags, but I can guarantee thousands of people aren't aware of this or even this forum. I may have a small impact but if everyone did this maybe they would actually start to listen. Why is there even a forum if they don't care about user suggestions.
