I sincerely hope this is a bug and not a new "feature". I've seen this splash screen after upgrades previously, but now its every time I open my browser. Is there a bug making it think every startup is a fresh upgrade? Please fix it.
I've been using Opera since 2009 as my main browser across various operating systems and devices. If this is here to stay and works as intended I will switch to another browser. It's incredibly annoying and loud and adds nothing to the user experience.
