You have plans to improve how the modules visually are separated, especially web page content?

The border around web page content bothers me. I'd prefer no bold black (white in light theme) borders between web page and display's edges (including bottom). And no border between edge of the screen and sidebar or scrollbar.

As a workaround disable these 2 flags and the old popup will be back.

Remove the same purple selection for menus and dropdowns for both dark and light themes. Make it look normal and pleasant to eyes like in other browsers or software. It means different gray accents for dark and light themes instead of the bright purple.

Instead of simply improving/restyling the existing TabMenu and adding a search field there they replaced it with a part taken from the removed 'InstantSearch' feature (InstantSearch had the 'search for tabs' feature, by the way, but it was said that the InstantSearch was unpopular feature that's why it was removed. So it's worth asking why we have a part from unpopular feature in the top right corner now).
Now they are trying to recreate the already existing and well working tabs management popup (I mean Tab Menu), but it seems that the final result (regarding the functionality) will be worse anyway than the existing one. That what I can call as 'wasted developers resources'.

Maybe there should be a slider to adjust the level of sharpness.

On the other hand, why only sharpness?
There are also saturation, brightness, contrast adjustments I used to see in built-in options in players on web pages.
Сontroversial feature.

@mcedro said in [Duplicated]Non-clickable gap above tabs:

I thought it was a nice refresh of the interface, so now I'm skeptical about it.

I was skeptical already when I first launched the 'One' version. The refreshed interface looks cool only on their promotional videos and screenshots, but the user experience suffered a lot actually.

@leocg said in Where is the "Recently closed tabs/Tab menu" button on the top right?:

try improving tabs management

Obvious conclusion.
And not just a try, it really improved the tabs management, and 'Search in tabs' worsened it.

I just don't stop to wonder to all these unnecessary border jumble.
For example when the sidebar is in auto mode.
Sidebar's top/bottom parts look egg shaped, one border looks over another because of the bad shadowing, some curve and 'dirty' rounded corner, still holes when the sidebar panel is opened.
Who designed this, why and what for it was designed in this way??

@orewayaya I don't use GX but in stock Opera version the feature is already implemented but still hidden in flags. I believe it's more than a year already since the flag first appeared and it's still disabled for some reason(under development).

Regarding the second suggestion there was multiple reports already. Other browsers (Edge, Chrome ) allow to select and move multiple tabs. Looks like this an default Chromium's behavior, not clear why Opera can't

History Redesign: We’ve polished and updated our history feature

It's still bad (the both sidebar panel and full page).

1. As for the sidebar.
   I was complaining earlier that the History/Bookmarks panel shouldn't react on page default zoom in Settings. I use 125% and it means more scrolling. Now the 'redesigned' History panel is even larger. Taking into account the filters on top and items having the large vertical spacing I see twice less items in the redesigned panel. And still 'recently closed' on top.
2. There's no option to open full page. On the old one there was option at the bottom and the icon on top.
   *I think it'll be enough making the 'History' as link to open the full page

3. the search fields are poor.
   It's simply not clickable and focusable to type if clicking not directly on the tip's text area. The same is on the full page.
   

4. search text is still cut (because of being shifted to the left each time) after pressing spacebar (in all the redesigned search fields).

5. If there's no matches, the page still jumps on top and it's not possible to continue typing/delete text because the search field on top is not in focus.

RNA-228 Enable #color-theme-extra-palettes on all streams

What palette? Where it possible to check?
I thought it's something related to the 'edit' theme dialog colors.

@Destroy666 said in Manifest v3 Opera:

official statements about it.

There was one positive (relatively old, about a year). https://blogs.opera.com/news/2024/10/opera-support-manifest-v2-ad-blocking/

*Also, here I have Edge Stable on 139 version already and uBlock still works. So it seems it's really possible to support even after 138 version if opera is really concerned regarding this.

@krishnakrverma Last time I did this I got a weird response and the thread was immediately locked. So I decided not to annoy in the main article
https://blogs.opera.com/news/2024/07/opera-dma-request/#comment-355401

Am I wrong or the things described in the News article https://blogs.opera.com/news/2025/08/opera-brazil-cade-complaint/
Is a bit similar to what Opera does regarding the search engines? I mean that on start page search engine locked to google and default one can be selected only from predefined list, predefined can't be removed or rearranged.

@burnout426 I don't have the crash but I'm on Win10 and my History is almost clean, But if they aware, it means they determined the issue.
*My only guess is that smth. related to the new History page. Maybe it's worth trying to disable 'redesigned' flag and check.

@Opera-QA-Team what's the point to report new suggestions if old ones issues are still not fixed or improved for months or even years.

Whatever feature is 'redesigned' recently means the feature is broken/complicated in use

@DerSchlingel said in Opera Listens: Introducing New Community-Inspired Themes to Opera One:

I'm glad they've introduced this rather calm and flat dark theme

I guess the same result can be achieved using the classic theme (edited) in dark mode.

@DerSchlingel said in Opera Listens: Introducing New Community-Inspired Themes to Opera One:

I feel they're slowing down my laptop and all these sounds in the background or when typing are no music to my ears. But maybe I'm just too old for this kind of stuff.

I have the same opinion.

Instead of introducing more and more predefined themes it'd better to improve the editing and customizing options, currently it's very limited.
I don't understand why there's is such big attention is paying. The themes creating tool should be open source so enthusiasts can create a bunch of cool themes. And there can be dedicated section on the opera addons page.

@andrew84 another one thing I noticed is that when selecting the predefined anchors, the list looks partially hidden and thus actually selected category is wrong.

So I click 'Yesterday' but the list's top is hidden and the bold text is for 'Older' category.

After I move cursor and scroll to the top of the 'yesterday' list, the category is automatically changing (bold text) to the correct one ('yesterday').

*So I click on one category but visually it shows that another (wrong one) was selected.
