      Just to add one more reason I hate the new UI is that under Themes, the option for colors is different, before we had to choose 4 colors, now its only 2, and they are not acting the same way.

          when the wallpaper changes,the search plugin will keep left
          and the sidebar looks ugly to me

                Please tell Opera if you hate the new look and function as much as I do. I find it a huge step backwards. Hate it, Opera!!
                Looks like from another thread there is no way back. Even if you put the old version back on, it updates when you restart... Sigh...

                    @likkm No way to roll back to the old UI now. You can click the Easy Setup button on the address bar and set the preset to "GX Classic" though. That will simulate some of the old UI.

                      @likkm hi
                      Actually there's a widget on the right
                      And there is a question asking for users satisfication for the new hi
                      If you clicked no,they will revert back automatically

                              What on earth is this new UI šŸ’€

                              Now that there is no way to go back to the old layout i was wondering if there are any other browsers yall recommend.

                                So, should we all just install an older version of Opera and turn off updates?

                                  If you haven't fixed it already, go to C:\Users*username*\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera GX Stable and edit the "Local State" file you can change this from true to false it should fix it, well it did for me

                                  gxx_flags":{"enabled":false,

                                          [@VibrantSpectator said in [Compilation]Discussions on the new Opera GX UI/Layout:

                                          The new opera gx layout is a bit annoying to get used to especially how everything is smaller. yes that does give more space for the main window but I would prefer it if you could either choose or customize it more. while having this new layout like this is indeed more sorted based on category but I would still like to have the option to have the tools as they were and larger.

                                          a positive change about the new layout is this setting bar. it's much more intuitive than the old way too navigate the main settings and such
