          Thank You !

          Edit : I noticed I have to click "show more" every time (eyeroll). It's like these developers don't want to make anything user friendly.

            People! Downgrade to Opera 69, close opera immediately after launch (you have to be fast!), find opera_autoupdate.exe and rename it, launch opera, type opera://flags/#search-in-open-tabs, disable it. That's it, you have the function back, fully with cross platform browsing.

              @azrael78 I'd love to do this, but I can't seem to find an official installation of Opera 69. Is there such a place to download?

                There's a link somewhere in this thread I think for that. I just can't seem to find it.

                      Opera has made 2 changes recently that have annoyed me to no end. This is one of them.

                      I came to Opera because once upon a time this browser was known for giving users control over their browsing experience. I guess nothing lasts forever.

                              @ericartman92 Talking to any software developers is wasting of time because (even if they listen) they are not willing to do any changes that are good for users. Only exception developers will listen to are big companyes which are willing to pay enormous amount of money to developers for that so no money = shut up and use our product!

                                what a shame. I guess 69.0.3686.95 will be my last opera update.

                                  What's happened? Opera used to be one of the best browsers out there, they would always listen to feedback. Nobody liked this change when it was introduced. Not only they didn't give a crap about the backlash, instead of bringing the old button back, they got rid of the only workaround to bring it back. Way to go.

                                    @figo-84 it's really sad, I remember the old days when Opera was awesome and not just a Chrome with a few better features. Now it's not even that.

                                        Opera! Are you seriously? 🤬
                                        Where are my closed tabs? I really wonder. Do developers use opera yourself? I think NO! Because the removal of the "closed tabs" button could only be done by a person who does not use the opera. 🖕 🤬

                                            I wouldn't necessarily put it that way. I myself am a developer and there are two things here - you can dictate your conditions to users when it is absolutely necessary or the tool is a very specific enterprise solution and, just like any tool, you can either learn and use it correctly, or better not use it at all. This case is neither, and it's striking as it's not just users depending on the software (let's not forget that other alternatives are available), but the software also depends on the user-base. Perhaps not on every specific user directly, as in a paid subscription, but more on a general note to back up investment requests, ads or other.

                                            And another thing, it's almost never the developers that make these sort of decisions. It is the stakeholders, designers or product owners that decide this and they are the decision-makers, not the developers themselves. Perhaps the issue is that developers do come here to read, but all they can do is read bug reports, whereas these design changes are simply beyond their ken or any position to influence.
