Something like... yeah we will change that or this will be fixed or no planning to change that etc.
If you are on Stable, you can look into the future and see coming versions/change logs via Beta and Developer.

Guys, I think I can provide substantial support as of the productivity of the browser. New Opera One is great but it needs these small tweaks:
- New tab bar is great, but it has some kind 1px empty space up top with pinned tabs. When I hover my mouse there to change a tab, I click and it gives me nothing. I need to specifically put attention into it, please change it as it was before! Normal tabs works fine - but it should be clear that if something is pinned, I will used it often therefore I need no obstacles
- New player is great, but one - if launched (eg. spotify) it should be visible right away when I hover my mouse to the left side for the side bar to appear from autohide. To change a song I need to. Could you make it so, when the ICON of the player is clicked and turned blue - the player would be pinned to the autohinding sidebar? Therefore I wouldn't need to make additional click do have it in full view? It would work like this, that when I would click player icon again and make it grey (unactivated) it would work as now, just a small song change window when hovering over the icon. It would also solve an issue about the player icon, taken all the way down on the sidebar. It would stay there, and it wouldn't matter to the user.
Basically we need some kind of functionality, to stop searching for player icon, but have full player just on hovering over sidebar somehow. Maybe second icon option to pin it, next to the option to pin it but with window dividing? - Aria needs shortcut change option to Ctrl+Shirt+A as of Aria
- Opera always had one great feature. This appearing small info-window with calculating currencies. This thing needs to be nurtured and advanced with lot of other options and customization, this is your selling point to me.
- We also need some kind fast-opened window to translate things. For example, I need to find what is some word in english. I could hit some shortcut and then window as for Aria would open with fast translator. Normally to find the exact thing, i need to open new tab, type the phrase to look for the word, then google would give it to me, and then close tab. It could be also very beneficial as a feature.
- Smooth scroll feature
- Blocks of news on the black page should have rounded corners.
- I would kill for an integration with Feedly for a main screen news feed. Like with divided screen option.

1b. I also want to add to the first point. not only pinned tabs have this problem but also tabs in these new tab islands
- You can't close whole tab group with the middle mouse click as you can with a single tab. You also should have been able to drag it outside the tab bar to make a new windows as with the single tab

Whoever PM dreamed about this, and whoever UX and developer made it happen, please, perform the following:
- Browse some silly shit at 3 in the night in bed next to your significant other
- Innocently, like a lamb going to sacrifice, click "Update Opera"
- Enjoy the result
Seriously, people, don't you have people around you?
Either remove the sound or create an option to not play it.

I can't understand the fuss about the design change, actually. So far, everything's working as expected. It's like the previous versions only with some modification.
I don't bother about rounded corners or gaps, really. There's no need to re-learn anything for me, as everything's where it was in pre-100 releases. The new sidebar in my opinion is even better than before.Glitches and issues have always been part of Opera and new versions. So for me, no real deal breaker either in case for or in case against Opera. So far, I like it. Not more, but not less either.

@himmelsheriff First, we could not remove "flow" in the upper right corner. Next day we had an update where it was removed. Whenever I have several tabs open, there is a small x that closes the tab, right where the tab window was. So instead of opening the tab, it would close it.
I had to switch to the gx browser, cause Opera One was/is lagging on Twitch for example. I had both browsers open and while One is lagging, Gx was just fine.
I don't dislike new updates, but this one have several issues. -

@tuneout ok, I see. But those annoyances haven’t happened to me, luckily. Or it‘s because I would use Flow a lot, for example. So no reason to deactivate it.
I understand, that major design overhauls are most likely to stir dissatisfaction. It’s been the same with Firefox and the new Photon(?) design. -

@himmelsheriff The new design has a poor realization. It was not properly tested before release.
Also, after the redesign browser's old features and UX were not properly tested to work well with the new design. -
A Former User last edited by
@andrew84 Well, I agree, it's not overly impressive. But I myself haven't run into major difficulties. But what browser, i.e. browser design would you prefer over Opera then?

@himmelsheriff If you mean visual design only (including dark theme), then Edge looks best to me. But its functionality is limited comparing to Opera.
If speaking about functionality/visual design balance, I prefer Opera <100 version.
I'm not going to update to One version in near future, but I'll keep an eye on developer version to check from time to time if there are some improvements and if user feedback were taken into account.*I'm on Opera 95 version currently. I find it very comfortable for simple daily browsing. If I need some specific things (online banking for example or personal identification) where updated chromium version is need, I use last version of Chrome/Edge.

@andrew84 Thank you for your elaboration. I agree, that Edge has a good design. I'd use it myself if it weren't becoming bloated especially with MS-stuff. It's such a shame, that they've created a real contender to Chrome but have made to a MS-advertising machine, in many ways imitating functions peculiar to Opera or even Vivaldi.
As I don't like MS generally I wouldn't hand my data to them, i'd even prefer to use Chrome then.
I found versions 98 and 99 really lacking, in that way even less reliable for me than O1.
But as I'm still happy halfway with it - no annoyances here, except missing home button - I'll keep staying around. It's hard to find a browser these days which is neither too mainstream nor too niche. So, let's keep an eye on Opera. -

What was lacking in 99 that you now can use in 100?

@vegelund Let‘s say workspaces! I couldn’t open Speed Dial if I hadn‘t opened a tile in the upper primary workspace. Or reload the page in the second Speed Dial. That’s what comes to my mind first.

@vegelund ok, sidebar: With the same amount of icons in the sidebar, I had to scroll to get to the ones on top or down. That wasn‘t peculiar to 98 and 99, but that’s no longer a problem with 100.

@himmelsheriff
I thought Speed Dials (if enabled) are and were by default shown on every tab opened. Why would you need to do anything to open Speed Dial?
What do you mean by "reload the page"?
I have 9 icons on my sidebar, so I've not noticed an issue on availablity.
