      @avgariat But it only reduces them. I still get the vertical shutter effect when I switch workspaces, unless I turn hardware acceleration off.

          Just thanks - Opera forced the update. But a older one without Reduce animation option. So I was searching for that solution about an hour. Thanks alot for the Thread opener and Devs who listen.

          Switching just work areas without that animation is so nice!

            For the ones who can not find the Reduce Animations option in settings, just update your browser using Update & Recovery option from the menu.

                  This feature was so annoying. Now I wish to switch off the start-up sound when a new installation is done or starting opera...
                  I disabled it for this installation, but I wonder what the next update will do...

                    @marwerno Sure, happy to help

                    I haven't seen anything in the settings menu to disable the start up sound, and some of the solutions I have found in other Opera forums look like they are outdated. It might be worth starting a new thread if the issue persists after the next update though.

                    I not sure what you ended up doing to disable the feature, but I found a few solutions on reddit that might work in case you're interested:

                    Reddit thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/operabrowser/comments/14hoo1b/disable_startup_sound_on_opera_one/

                    Direct solution: https://www.askvg.com/tip-disable-or-remove-opera-splash-screen-or-startup-logo/#:~:text=Launch%20Opera%20One%20web%20browser,configuration%20page%20called%20“Experiments“.&text=3.,from%20the%20drop-down%20box.

                      @avgariat Another workaround I found is to close your eyes for a second when you switch workspaces 😆

                      Should we make a petition or what, to introduce this flag for disabling animations completely? I had to enable the Hardware acceleration otherwise embedded videos are choppy.

                        @ds936 no workaround is necessary, you can disable them in the options. search for "reduce animations"
