When I exit YouTube full screen, the top bar slides down where the open tabs are.

@pilis00: This was present in the previous version already. But it doesn't bother me except it made me raise my eyebrow when I first saw it.

@mathias87 for me it didn't occur in the previous version. (with .41 at the end)

@sicu220: Thanks for your comment! Just to clarify, when you exit YouTube full screen, are you referring to the browser's tab bar at the top sliding down?

@daria19 Yes, I think so.

The opening and closing animations for the tabs suddenly became very sluggish. You can see better in this recording:

@daria19 from time to time. I honestly don't understand why, it's kinda weird.

Sometimes the animations are butter smooth, sometimes they suddenly became sluggish like in the video I did share.

Also, the animations continue stuttering severely in this issue:

@pilis00 it's not so obvious on video. By 'sluggish' you mean that tab is shrinking while closes and the animation is delayed and thus a part of the disappearing tab is visible?
I copied a stop frame

@andrew84 yeah, something like that.

Or sometimes the animation has frame-drops. I think you get what I mean.

@pilis00 If I don't mistake, the issue persists since the One version presentation.
I think the issue here is that the tab shrinks (not sliding away smoothly), so the text/icon looks messed. Also, in the end of animation the tab (its last visible part) has square corner already, not rounded.

another one stop frame

in old version (95) it looks normally and tab is disappearing step by step (sliding away smoothly) so icon/text stay unchanged.

I don't remember if I also reported this, but I'm pretty sure that posting such issues is pretty useless and waste of time.

It's not, they can do some optimization to make the animations show normally.
After all it's something that each one of us does see.

@pilis00 The tabs management on the TabStrip is broken (if comparing vs < 100 version )since 2023. So there are little chances the 'smoothness' (I don't mean only the particular animation) will be fully restored. Personally, I've lost a hope already.
I don't why this happen, my guess the culprit is the 'islands' feature but I can be wrong.
*Maybe if in future there will another global redesign where the 'flat' design (not 'modular') will be again in trend and hyped, then all the tabs management issues disappear at once.

@andrew84 honestly I didn't try to see the animations on the pre-100 versions, as I was a Chrome user back then.

At least, the animations of the tabs in Opera are at 144Hz, unlike Chrome and other browsers who still keep it at 30 or 60Hz.

Still, a major redesign is unlikely to come any time soon, but I for one really enjoy this design. Just some tweaks or optimizations to the animations and that's it.
