@kened I attached joke as usual, but the issue is more serious.
Vacancies abroad concern business and managerial positions mainly, but for Poland offices Opera awaits highly skilled programmers. Not ordinary skilled people.
The jobs have tough conditions, explicitly laid out by Madam Fiammetta Ruiz, and that's also alarming - they border or crosses... contemporary slavery.

We can write this or that, but there's no one to work on them. GX and Money are the Kings in Opera now.

@leocg Why I had to write that:
(I cannot upload new d/loaded images or screenshots, not for the first time today!)
You have removed images from official forum pages, but I cannot upload them as well.
What happened?

@kened Development seems to be on a normal pace for me.
Regarding innovations, maybe there isn't much to innovate nowadays, specially when you done it for about two decades and now see other browsers implementing things that Opera had years ago as something new and innovative.
Also, I believe that they don't want to repeat the same mistakes of the past and put a lot "innovative" features that will only cost them without bringing any useful benefit.

Oh, dear...
Whose benefit you mean - theirs (Opera stock holders), or ours (Desktop users)?I will prove my words in a while.

@leocg Decidedly. I receive non stop warnings/notes "I am not connected to forums, please wait" or about something "the server is not working properly" when I try to upload a file. Sending you screenshots is pointless, how?!

@leocg My official answer.
Me and @kened have exchanged few remarks lately. I may sum them up in the following list of basic and utmost necessary functions for works, not pleasure.
- Workspaces (multi, 24)
- Video (multi PiP)
- Sidebar (messengers, Custom sites panel (more than 5!))
- Snapshots (working perfectly)
- Easy files
I have been writing to Requests forum many times. Alas, they are still valid.
What I need in Opera?
- Synchronized Opera window sliders (both horiz and vert slides with switch) to have ability to view two websites/page/texts/pictures simultaneously.
- Quick view of my directories with images in two modes - lists and thumbnails.
- More entries in "Custom site panels"
- Two independent Sidebars - for left and/or right placing
It may look sometimes that I am unjust and unfair to Opera developers (workers) in what I wrote recently, but let me tell you this
l know, that people from Opera offices have far much broader view on "Opera world" than me and that they keep wide opened eyes into every direction of matters, just contrary to my narrowed vested interest in "My Opera Desktop for Linux".
Anyway there are still few things I'd like Opera have updated.
(this list is presented here anew)Why you need to synchronize two windows and how?
Workspaces - synchronize windows' slides
Workspaces - desynchronize show/hide options
Workspaces - desynchronize iconsUp the ante of Opera effectiveness
Open thumbnails too in directory with images
Opera does not play playlists (*.pls)Those old requests can improve Opera effectiveness and push it a little closer to what one of Opera users expressed - to Opera Commander (I was not alone coining that name).
I beg your pardon my uncorrected English in my old posts, but I hope you will understand well my expectations.
BTW. Wouldn't you like to have thumbnails viewer (thumbnail list) apart from text lists, would you?
