@leocg: But it's obviously included, I even already tried it.

There is a new version Opera 100.0.4810.0 Developer for Mac only just now.

@mbstafs Yesterday it wasn't. I even checked about an hour ago and couldn't see it.

@thelittlebrowserthatcould Tab Island behaviour is so erratic with the Debian build at the moment, that it makes more sense to continue using Workspaces, but then I'm assaulted by the "slot machine" animation.

@mbstafs Is it? I thought the fix was implemented very recently per https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2023/05/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_16.html

114.0.5720.4 is at least a month old.

@thelittlebrowserthatcould the Renderer task was stuck on high CPU useage for several minutes. I thought killing it would close the browser, but not so.

@leocg Rather strange, coming from the fact that Google themselves announced WebGpu to be enabled by default. Anyway, thanks for checking out.

@op2 As I said, opera://gpu shows that WebGPU is enabled.

@leocg: I meant the Aria feature is in 100.0.4809.0. I checked and I have it.

Or is it server-side, and doesn't need to be integrated directly into the browser?

Or is it browser-side, and was developed all along, but never mentioned in the change logs to keep it "secret"?

(Replying to self) Sorry for nitpicking.

Aria wasn't a secret anyway, it announced in February:

So what?
To quote https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2023-2721 :
"in Google Chrome prior to 113.0.5672.126".

@mbstafs But I thought that meant anything released before 113.0.5672.126 (dated 16/05/2023) are affected and 114 was released at least a month ago and likely won't have the fix in place. I am happy if the fix is already in place.

I can't find Aria. Hmm?

@ghirahim it's down in the Sidebar Extensions section of the Sidebar's setup. Don't ask me why!

@thelittlebrowserthatcould It should be together with ChatGPT and other AIs.

@thelittlebrowserthatcould I had to restart the browser, now it appeared. It's great!

@leocg when enabled, yes. But to enable it, it's down in the Sidebar Extensions.

@mbstafs Yes, they announced the project, the plan to add an AI a few months ago, but it was only introduced/revealed to public today.

• Why the dark blue color is used for the items highlighting in menus in both light and dark theme? Previously only dark mode was spoiled by using the bright white, now light mode also uses the high contrasting items. It should be darker gray accent for the light theme and a bit lighter grey for dark mode. Would suit for GX version, but not for regular version.

In overall the new blue color looks much worse than the previous light blue, for example for workspaces icons.

*By the way, bookmarks bar dropdown and web page's context menu are
still old, without rounded corners.

*tabs are too small, the minimize, maximize, close window buttons are higher than tabs, looks really weird.
