      The problem is - old menu had list of synced tabs across devices and that was really handy! Now you cannot even add on bookmars bar opera://activity page, and more - you cannot find it from menu or other Opera UI... First you need to google it, second you have to type it every time you need it in adress bar. This is very strange and bad changes to the Opera UI.

      Hope this will be fixed or made some workarounds for this situation.

        It is remarkable how needlessly anti-consumer some company become and stubborn to remain.

            O70, and the tip with flags not working again.
            Opera devs had lost the spirit of the good old Opera. Now they are stubborn and ignore what the community needs at all.

            Please return to recently closed tabs icon !!!

            @roberto64, we should not ask them or beg them. We are the users. We'd rather uninstall this user UNfriendly browser made with hate by unfriendly devs.

              The new popup is terrible designed. And there is no way to turn back the old one with Opera 70.

              The unnecessary large size, the inconvenient placement (far away from the button), only 3 rows of the last open tabs, the search bar and open tabs take a lot of space and it absolutely useless for people who do not open a lot of tabs. And it's modal popup, it's breaks the flow of the work with the sites.

              Stop do changes for the changes.

              Bring back the old menu. I absolulty don't like this modal popup.

                How many opinion needed for fix design mistake?!
                Opera Developers team never changes...

                Maybe does you think people haven't variants for choosing browser?

                  Modal windows is an arguable UI approach and may be used in a situations when you need the user to stop and think before doing next step. Definitely not this situation! And you're right, it's far away from the button so it's not only logical and visual connection broken, it consumes more time since the user needs to move the cursor and target it.

                        @leocg Is this all they have to say? The theme of this thread is very clear:

                        You should consider the claim of many users and give a positive response:
                        Please: Bring back the "Recently closed" button on the top bar on the right!!

                        There are many more users who claim it, but they do not take the trouble to write it in the forums, but many of us do not like this change!

                        Please answer that !!

                          @roberto64 They who? If you are talking about Opera, they usually don't comment on requests and/or suggestions.

                            @jolang I understand your comment, but it would be a great disappointment for me to do that, more than 15 years ago I used Opera as the default browser ... and this never happened.
                            So I ask that it be repaired, and many users do so.

                                Well they should in this case. There are many complaints that warrant a response. Especially considering that this same thing was much demanded a few months ago...

                                  @leocg This never happened: they want to remove something that many users have been demanding for months that they do not remove it

                                    @roberto64 I've been using Opera and around here for more than twenty years and every time a new feature is added or removed/changed, there are lots of complaints. Sometimes more, sometimes less.

                                      @leocg Ok, so let's not complain: nobody cares. That's what you mean? "There are always complaints" "the developers never answer" What is the use of my time in this forum?

                                        If you click on the clock symbol on the sidebar (on the left hand side), it will open a history tab, with Recently Closed tabs on top. Clicking on any of them restores a tab. It's the same functionality as before, just a different location...

                                          @vikont-0 Yes, I have seen it, thanks for your reply vikont. But before it was all together (closed tabs and tabs on other devices) in a single access much more convenient and practical to find tabs.
                                          Now, they are not only separated, but also to see tabs on other devices opens them in a very impractical large window compared to the immediacy it had before accessing everything.
                                          And on top of that, they replaced access to all of this with a search popup that adds nothing, and to top it off, it doesn't even take dark mode.
                                          They are all negative details compared to the practicality of the previous access.
                                          Those of us who have used Opera for a long time, largely love it for those practical details, such as the fact that you can go back to the beginning of a page by clicking on its tab ... it's as if they took that away from us. The improvement is not understood.
                                          And on top of that is a change that was resisted many months ago, by many users: just look at the number of visits from these threads ...
                                          It is incredible that they do not listen to many people, it is not something that a couple of users crave because they do not like a detail, it is something that makes the browser less practical ... and it seems that they do not care.
                                          Thanks vikont, I still appreciate your message.
