@northsider Yeah I got a feeling it isn't so much a glitch but opera just wants this to slide under the radar. Probably some mid supervisor got congratulated and patted in the back for this %#&# idea of his.

Happy to say the latest release has fixed this issue!
The very tacky animated "O" is still there on startup, but this one's fixed...

I tried for a week to fix this ; updated, went on a rabbithole search into obscure settings...Nope. i finally fixed it- I made Brave my default browser.

@vegelund Yup, "cancel culture" at its best! Maybe once Brave has a problem they'll work their way around all the other browsers until they all have problems and eventually come back to Opera!

@franta99 It is fixed. Go to your main menu and, check Update & Recovery or the equivalent in your language and check for updates. It is a bit buggy, so you may have to restart once manually, go back to Update & Recovery, and then restart again from a button that appears.

@deurotelle Thank you for the recommendation. I just downloaded it and will soon give it a go.
Opera has lost a lot of credibility now by force updating something this big apparently without proper testing and dogfooding. Did anyone use this browser at all before release? And the sheer arrogance of decisions like taking away the home button (bothers me continuously) and introducing that horrible sound effect. I am glad I wasn't wearing my headset just now because I could hear it loud even though the headset lies on the desk.
If you have a monopoly on certain things like Microsoft, then messing with your users by changing everything for no reason and making them lose productivity by making them figure out how to do things they already learned to do several times is okay. But browsers aren't the same.
But great to hear they fixed that problem that should have never shipped unless it only affected a small segment of the users.

@northsider After a couple of days, I like Brave as well as I used to like Opera- one issue is clearing cache is more than one menu, but I figured it out- you have to hit the three-dashes on the far left and go down to 'more tools' or remember it's control+shift+delete to open it.

About Brave - have they implemented in-page search with just hitting a dot (.) or not? Last time I tried (few years ago) this was not possible. Over the long years I have got used to that... Ctrl+F does not qualify

I'm always confused when Ctrl+F does not work on this forum for page search.
Inside a thread it only searches natively the thread content and not the page.
Also missing out the normal yellow/green highlighting.
Edit: Noticed I had "Enable In-Topic Searching" active in settings.
