Hello
I am using an old computer with windows 7 and I find Opera slower and slower.
Is there a way to make it less heavy and faster ?
Does Opera team work on a lighter version ?

Opera discontinued support for Windows 7 with version 96. So, the last build of Opera 95 is the last build of Opera that runs on Windows 7. Opera does not provide support for that build anymore. It only supports the current build, which is 122.0.5643.17 at this moment.

No.

You can goto the URL opera://settings and disable everything you don't use. You can click the 3 dots at the bottom of the sidebar and then hide/disable all sidebar panels you don't use. Then, you can hide the sidebar itself if you don't use it.

That's about it.

Clear cache, even on SSD huge cache may sometimes slow down Opera.
What kind of disk drive you've got - HDD or SSD? If HDD, then you need to take care of it (clear temp files, defragment etc - or just replace it with SSD).
