Keyboard shortcut for moving tabs?

In Chrome, Firefox and other browsers, Ctrl+Shift+Page Down moves the selected tab to the left along the tab bar, and Ctrl+Shift+Page Up moves the selected tab to the right.

This doesn't seem to work in Opera (114.0.5282.154 under Linux), and the functionality also doesn't appear in opera://settings/keyboardShortcuts either. There are options for switching which tab is selected, but not for moving the selected tab along the tab bar. And of course, I don't want to have to fiddle with the mouse just to do this.

Am I looking in the wrong place, or is this function missing from Opera?

@nomadMik I don't think Opera has such feature.

@leocg Okay, thanks. I've created a feature request—it's pretty important functionality, especially for accessibility, so hopefully the devs will address it soon.

Hi @nomadMik, thanks for bring this up. I really need this function too. It's been a year and I still not see this function up and running. I'd like to check if you received any update from the devs? Thanks!

It's indeed very needed. I use my keyboard a lot and in Chrome for MacOs you can move the tabs using Cmd+Ctrl+Arrow Left/Right.

I was able to add this behaviour to MS Edge using an extension https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/rearrange-tabs/ccnnhhnmpoffieppjjkhdakcoejcpbga, but as of now this extension doesn't work properly when I put on Opera
