I try to keep opera updated although I find it frustrating it needs updating every 3 days but I'm usually doing an update every week to 10 days. (Running Devuan linux)
This time I got the 'wonderful new improved' opera 1 .

Well - - - its so useful that its unusable.

I copied over my crucial tabs to another browser ( I have about 6 available - - - none of which are Chromium) and Opera1 is now on the electronic equivalent to the excrement pile.

I loved that I was able to save pages as a pdf in one nice easy step but when I can't even read any of my tabs and then when I want to shift between tabs there is a mess like right now - - - - well - - - - I can put up with doing saves in 2 steps - - - usable is far more important.

I don't think the dev community cares but bon voyage - - - it did have its moments.

@leocg

OK that would get rid of the tab islands

wouldn't get rid of the tabs smeared across the tab bar though.

Oh well - - - - time for a different browser.

Thanks for trying!

It seems we are having the revenge of the anti-tab user brigade.

It seems you also disagree with their system - - - 10 tabs max per window - - - you know.
I can't figure out how to remove this 'tab-island' malarky - - - if not possible - - - - opera disappears - - - that simple!

Seems like browser are like poorly fitting underwear - - - not fit for use (LOL).

I used to use a lot more opera windows - - - lost a pile of windows and tabs at an update - - - since opera has windows on 'one' virtual desktop and no more.
My diatribe isn't helping you but its there to give you what I'm going to be doing in a short number of hours - - - - dump it!

Wasn't overly happy when opera switched to using a slider bar over the tabs.

This 'tab islands' makes for a tab bar that looks like garbage and isn't very useful.

How do I get rid of it?

TIA
