      Solved! Thank you Opera!!! You are the absolute tits! I wish voice search worked but you're still the best and my heart saddens to know that most humans don't use you and have such an orgasmicly true browsing experience ♥

                                @treego Instead of simply "it works on my side" can you point out for the stable version - we can somehow revert then.

                                        Newest update 73.0.3856.31 now makes the text grayed out whenever I try to type something in. The problem is even worse. This should really be fixed, it's definitely more important than some other bugs, as this bug makes the browser so annoying to use. Again, Opera please fix this quickly. The problem is both on normal Opera and Opera Beta.

                                          A week ago I got troubles with using address line typing text there. I just don't get suggestions and can't even go further clicking 'enter' on my keyboard. I tried to turn off all extensions, LastPass extension helps for about a couple of times after, but then the problem returns. The version is the last 72.0.3815.207. While this, clicking shift+enter opens different window wellфввк ифк.jpg
