        Just for this reason I was thinking to switch to another browser. Suuuper annoying. Please hear our voice.

          @kjeldahl I am also having this issue - and it's become QUITE irritating. To the point of wanting to switch to Firefox or Chrome, again.

          This bug manifests two ways:

          • Clicking the little x on each individual browser tab... need to click here twice to close.
          • CMD + W - need to press this keyboard combination twice to close each tab.

          My info:
          Update stream: stable
          Version: 84.0.4316.31 (x86_64)

            @kjeldahl I have the same problem. Also, when I move one tab to another place, the preview keeps showing, event after closing the tab. I'm really getting done with opera.

              I also faced the problem but updating to the new version 88.0.4412.53 fixed it for me. 🙂

                  Same here. Opera GX 88.0.4412.75. By me this doesn't only affect X'ing out tabs and using Ctrl+W, but also the Ctrl+T. Painful to operate with tabs.

                    Sadly it's still broken even on 89.0.4447.38 (about to update to 89.0.4447.48 but I'm not holding my breath...)

                        I fixed it by disabling the option "Hold ⌘Q (or press it twice) to quit Opera"

                          @paotrail interesting. How long have you been trouble-free since doing that? The intermittent nature of the bug makes it hard to know for sure if it's cured or just taking a break...

                          I've just disabled the mentioned option and will try to report back with my results.

                            @paotrail Sadly that hasn't helped here. Still an issue with "Hold ⌘Q" option disabled.

                            Currently running 91.0.4516.16 (x86_64)
