@morckx I noticed it also happens with maximized windows.

@gmiazga Same issue here using IceWM on Debian 10. Opera Version:80.0.4170.72 Linux is stealing focus from non maximized windows just above it (happened with emacs, xterm and urxvt). I don’t need to use the mouse for this to happen, not even to type in the terminal or editor window.

Ugrading and reloading the page never helped, however "Settings >> Apps & Notifications >> Opera >> Storage and cache >> Clear cache" did the job.

Hello, Trying to visit my website karakb.fr which points to a subdomain of another website keeps on giving "This site can't be reached" even after having upgraded to Opera 88.0.4661.83415. As far as I know, this happens only on Android 10, as it works everywhere else I tried, including same version of Opera on Android 13 on another tablet. Directly providing the target subdomain always works. There is no mention of any of these websites in cookies and site settings.

Hello, Issue is still present in stable release 83.0.4254.27, but there is a simple fix.

I use click to raise. Opera stable still steals focus, unless you put it in its own workspace. Hope this helps.

@aglupus Alternatively, you could install an older package.

I regularly end up with hundreds of open tabs and have to save them as a Speed Dial folder to alleviate the load on the machine. I then virtually never access those Speed Dial folders again. Scanning all the tabs to see which ones I want to close is a lengthy operation which I seldom feel like doing. In the meantime, I constantly use CTRL + SPACE (Instant Search), where I typically see a few tabs listed which I don’t need any more. Clicking on a check box next to each such tab to close it right away would be a simple method to keep the number of open tabs manageable, without having to spend time visiting them and possibly lose your train of thought.

Hi all,
I happen to save specific web pages outside of my default download directory and I am used to type the first letter of a directory to easily select it. This works in many Linux applications and worked as well in Opera until recently. It does not work anymore and does strange things. So how can I select a non default save directory without having to scroll among tens of files?
