      @andrew84 I like it visually and it doesn't really mess that much with my regular browser usage.

        I noticed here that in the latest developer build the left and right border is thinner if the sidebar is hidden but 'autohide' mode is active in EasySetup.
        Bottom's border is still bold.2023-08-13_170957.png

        If I turn the sidebar off completely, then only the right's border is thinner.

        Conclusion: if the border can be thin and almost invisible, it should be simply removed.

          The borders around the website content got thinner in the latest developer build.
          These thin lines look very distracting when viewing websites with a dark background.
          Please give us the option to turn the borders off completely. I'm fine with the rest of the new design.

            I don't think they listen to us, and we are naive if we think they will change the overall design for us.

            Read this from their page: Opera offers a complete web experience you canโ€™t get from system defaults such as Chrome, Safari and Edge.

            Yes, I agree, those lateral lines are useless and ugly, but they will stay there because they stick for this design.

            Do a simple test:

            1. Load a long web page in Edge.

            2. Go with mouse maximum left, and scroll. -> The scroll is working.

            3. Load a long web page in Opera One.

            4. Go with mouse maximum left, and scroll. -> The scroll is not working !! And this design is better ?!

              The border should be removed or made as thin as possible for a more modern look (Edge removed it).

                  @flaviu2 Yes, the home button has also returned as users reacted harshly to its removal.

                    @jerrykist It is thin already (1px) in developer version but still looks annoying.

                      @andrew84 Take it easy, it's still developing. I believe they will make it better.

                        @jerrykist they're implementing additional code to fix the scrolling issue.

                        DNA-110130 Capture mouse events on the 1-pixel edge to the right of the web view

                        *for the left edge the issue still persists.

                        So if they are working on workarounds instead of removing the border, is logical to assume that they don't plan removing the border in near future.

                            Good point !
                            For instance, I founded another bug, when I open the browser and some islands are closed, they have that white point (new tab inside island):

                            Do they care ? I guess not ๐Ÿ™‚
