@vegm What I did. 1) I downloaded the installer for the previous version, 2) I made a shortcut to it, 3) copied the shortcut to the taskbar. Everytime I start up my PC I start (old (work-)) Opera from that icon. NB: that wil put a second, regular icon on the taskbar. One should not use that at startup, for it wil autoload the new (distraction-/play-) version with intrusive noisy intro and candy store colors.

Printscreen, place into photo editor, it'll tell you the exact RGB value.
Not to argue what is blue or purple, just to make sure we are on the same page.
Photoshop pulls color="#5818f8" for all Opera purple visible.
5021FF is what I got from the examples given by others, I hadn't actually checked mine since I stopped it at version 99. I'll go check another machine.... 80/33/255 for all three blue bits I can see here:
Not sure why everyone keeps speaking in hex, I'll convert. I get 50/21/FF, the same as the other guy earlier in the thread. So a bit less red and bit more blue than you. I guess your Iris thing is adjusting things and making the blue more purple. And it seems to be affecting photoshop. If it's changed what's on the screen, it'll change your screenshot you're pasting into Photoshop.

Screenshots in Windows OS do not work that way and Photoshop is a color managed environment. Iris was anyways turned off.
I also get 5021ff from your sample.

So your Opera is producing a different tint for some reason?
I have no idea what "colour managed environment" means.

It means that when you load an image into the Photoshop application on Windows, the color reproduction of the source is accurate.
Windows itself is not color managed. link
Regarding screenshots:
Go to Windows settings and activate night mode, pull it to warmest, take screenshot.
Go to Intel Graphics Command Center and pull one RGB lever to max, take screenshot.You will see that both screenshots are unaffected by system- or monitor settings.
Perhaps the ICC profile loaded will affect color, have not tested.

@vegelund That explains why when I screenshot a game it looks terribly dark, because I've got Windows set to brighten games. No idea how people play them at standard brightness, can't see anything. Maybe I'm meant to darken the room.

The new browser is not entirely bad, there are good things about it. I imagine it achieving some success in capturing a new audience. I wouldn't even say the new concept is bad despite the lack of refinement at the current state (inconsistent and sometimes unnecessary borders, too much wasted space, questionable accent color, etc.). But you know, the problems themselves are not even the problem here, it's how the new design was forced as an update. The developers must understand there are tons of browsers out there and previous Opera users chose it for the particular experience it provided, so to force a entirely new experience like this assuming they'll want it is unreasonable. We're not a cult, we will not just go along with anything. If it's a entirely new experience and the previous one is gone, users will obviously reevaluate their choice and maybe will stick with the new browser. And good luck with that.
It's ok to change, to try to evolve, but you should be more careful than that.

@koko1111 It was perfect before. Why make the interface look like a kid's toy and harder to use?
Having said that, I just tried Chrome. Now that really is rubbish. Every link opens in a new tab, no way to change it without an extension! Now that's what I call cluttered. You could end up with 50 tabs open, it's like never putting a tool away.
But at least the tabs look like tabs and not floating ovals.

@koko1111 you're right partially. But there're two more browser (GX and crypto) for those who likes something unusual an 'new'. Now the One version is similar to GX. They'd better add light theme in GX than promoting two browsers in dark mode currently. Now the 'gaming interface' is in both. And if I don't mistake, crypto browser also has dark UI. So 3 dark browsers actually.
*They choose the side of Darkness as it seems -

@koko1111 The one thing that was a old complaint was to be able to change the font color on the Speed dial page. This was not addressed. Your correct we don't like to be forced to upgrade to this. Bye Opera...Hello Firefox for now

My suggestion with side bar will be decrease is width (too much padding), as is it right now it takes a lot of space, maybe if they make the bar a little thin and remove the border in the icons.
Theres is other things that bother me, tabs look awful but I don´t know how they can fix them, it seems that this new design brings a lot of problems.

@joshkauff I think the tabs had margins before, now they don't have that anymore, which causes a blur when you have many tabs open. This was on my screen before and after:

@zauberfritz You´re right, very odd design, they add too much margin in some items and they remove it in others.

Look what I found in latest Edge version.
The ability to turn off #edge-rounded-containers.
"Enables rounded tabs, rounded corners around browser frames that bring visual separation – Mac, Windows, Linux."
I expect Opera to implement same choice.
Edge 116.0.1938.54 on Win10.

@vegelund there's special switch in Settings called 'Try the new look and feel of Microsoft Edge' and no need to use the flag.
There's also another one flag that makes rounded tabs
#edge-visual-rejuv-rounded-tabs*As was expected, the new Opera One's modular design is not an innovation from Opera side as it seems, but simply general redesign from Chromium.

As of 116.0.1938.54 rounded design is default.
My point was that it's possible to turn off, as it should be with Opera.

@vegelund Just look carefully (or use search on Settings page) and you'll find it, I'm on the same version.

I got it, but 99.999...% it won't be implemented in Opera.
And I think that in Edge the toggle is also temporary option. -

@vegelund I wish MS would provide that option in Windows itself. I have to fiddle with 3rd party programs. My TV has had square corners since about 1980. We don't use curved CRT anymore.
