      I've been unable to use middle mouse button to open a new tab for quite a while now. And in this post I found that there was a workaround by enabling opera://flags/#scrollable-tab-strip . But since the last update that setting is making my first tab pretty much immortal, with the only way that I'm able to close it being CTRL+W.

      This being the expected result (scrollable-tab-strip disabled, as is default): Expected

      And this with scrollable-tab-strip being on: not expected
      The x is completely gone and trying to close the window with middle mouse button also doesn't work, so the only way to get rid of the first tab is with CTRL+W when you are on that tab. The second tab seems to be fine though, which I can close by both pressing the x and clicking on the tab with the middle mouse button.

      I'm well aware that I shouldn't post bugs that involve experimental features, but now the only workaround for the middle mouse button issue is bugged too.,
