The option to skip a video like an ad is wonderful, I'm going to miss this option on mobile when using the YouTube app.

Opera is still the best browser and it keeps getting better by adding features that others will hastily copy in the future. For example the feature to select something in an website and save it. By the way, the team could improve this feature, perhaps through AI, to detect and save any image, even if the right click button was disabled by some script. Finally, long life to the AD blocks!

The Pinboards that you implemented were fantastic. I was able to create and share what I needed to with students. However, you seemed to have lost focus on them or threw them by the wayside. You bring new features as experimental without ever caring for the previous ones. The Pinboards are great until you clear your cookies/history, then they're wiped out too. I've lost so much content. I even went through the "safe" cookies and anything else I could find to ensure Pinboards were on the list for "safe". Yet the updates wipe them out. I've gone on and located other browser tools to ensure this doesn't happen again, however what I had saved, lost lost and lost. You throw out shiny new things with disregard to what others have liked or lost. So all your shiny new toys I take with a grain of salt. This is sad as I have been using Opera for over 15 years. When I need something more dependable or stable, I find myself having to venture over to Vivaldi.

@ijustmightbecrazy: I find the same thing. I have had several sites that I could not use Opera on and one example, Petsmart. There are a host of others, but that was one of the last ones I had issues with. I then travel over to Vivaldi and do what I need to.

@kathyb The best way to fix the issue you are having is to create an opera account and turn on sync. Make sure you select pinboards as one of the options to sync. This has the added benefit of being able to access your pinboards on any device. I have been using pinboards for a while and after doing this I have never had an issue with them deleting. If they don’t appear after an update, just make sure you sign back in to your account and they will be there. Hope this helps.

Updates with new features are amazing and always welcome, but the feature I'm most looking forward to is being able to better organize Tab Groups, being able to rename them and add a color, to facilitate organization and make work more agile.

you should fix current problems than giving more features.
- the mute sound button on the page titles are too annoying when you have more than 20+ tabs opened! you cant click/select tabs because of that annoying mute sound icon.
- right click menu is disastrous. you need to give us to remove those unwanted menus. we want customizable right click menu! give us a reason to use you over chrome

Does anyone know if this update addressed the issue many users were having with the black screen? The only way I was able to run Opera was by opening a command prompt to disable the GPU, then going into settings to deactivate hardware acceleration.

Opera needs to have a Search Bar for the Speed Dial...
Like Vivaldi has. -

@happyhomesteader If you search for a term that matches one of your speed dials, I guess Opera will show it.

It's a fantastic browser, I wouldn't use anything else. One thing though, I've been trying to save my tabs in a separate file, but haven't been able t o (or understand how). Going onto the internet the advice is to click mouse right-hand and follow the instructions. Well, there are no instructions worth following. I think that advice is of past times, older Opera browsers. It should be simple enough to do. Re. saving to speed dial (all the tabs) supposing tabs were lost during a computer hiccup, wouldn' t speed dial be lost as well? Seems safer to copy all the cabs into a file that can be kept elsewhere on the computer or/and on a memory stick.
