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

Web page content's border and new modular design.Appearance
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.

[Suggestion] Remove the purple menu/dropdowns highlighted items in dark/light themeAppearance
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.

RE: Where is the "Recently closed tabs/Tab menu" button on the top right?Opera for computers
@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. -
RE: Where is the "Recently closed tabs/Tab menu" button on the top right?Opera for computers
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'. -
RE: Opera 68 is here with built-in Instagram in the sidebarBlogs
@leocg Look what I've found https://blogs.opera.com/desktop/2017/08/exportable-bookmarks-smoother-videos-design-improvements-opera-47/
Yes, I agree with Opera, this a handy shortcut to my history log. -
RE: [Duplicated]Non-clickable gap above tabsAppearance
@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.

RE: Where is the "Recently closed tabs/Tab menu" button on the top right?Opera for computers
@Dheinamar said in Where is the "Recently closed tabs/Tab menu" button on the top right?:
new location of the list in Menu->History
This is not a new location, 'recently closed' short list has always been there. When they recommend to use OMenu > History instead they are just trying to justify their weird decision regarding the removed TabMenu. OMenu is not the same as TabMenu, otherwise the TabMenu wouldn't have been necessary and implemented at all in the past.

RE: Help us create a better address bar experienceBlogs
Make the 'top sites' pane optional (expand arrow or switchable off in Setting) and add 'quick action' buttons (Copy/Paste/Print/Find/Full screen/Save as PDF and similar)
*As for the shortcuts, it's better to make it customizable and offer users select what shortcuts each users want. 5-6 shortcuts for example, from the range of browser options (20 -30 most important options/elements/pages).
And my suggestion also is to focus more on options that directly refer to currently opened page and on address field/text, not on some global browsers features (that's why I'd like to see quick buttons).

RE: Difficult in creating a new accountOpera account
Ok, I see now. Indeed a bit confusing.
I may be wrong but it's a relatively new form.
It was different previously, I've found some pictures.
*The new form really a bit confusing but didn't bother me much. What bothered me is that the same account is used for Opera forum and Opera itself. So when I log in on forum I automatically will be signed in Opera and I need to sign out. I'd prefer two separate accounts

RE: Difficult in creating a new accountOpera account
@whisperer said in Difficult in creating a new account:
you have to click a Login button,
You mean the opera account popup on the address bar?
If yes, I agree. There should be a direct way to login using the popup instead of redirecting to web page. It should redirect only if someone wishes to create new account. -
RE: Difficult in creating a new accountOpera account
@whisperer said in Difficult in creating a new account:
There is no button or link for creating an account, but you have to use the Login button for that.
There's 'continue' button by default and depending on whether email exists or not on next step the button will be transformed to 'sign in' or 'create account.
But I agree that it'd be more clear if there were two separate forms.

@Formingus-0 don't understand your problem. If you already registered, it'll ask you to enter your password. If your email is not registered you'll be prompted to enter and confirm new password.

RE: the way of trigger hidden menu itemsOpera for Windows
@Hjeerau what size of screen you have? And how many additional items (most probably extensions) you have in right click context menu.

RE: the way of trigger hidden menu itemsOpera for Windows
@leocg said in the way of trigger hidden menu items:
I don't see it here, maybe it depends on screen size?
Was able to reproduce it on 13.3'' display.
Couldn't reproduce it in Edge browser.There were multiple complaints regarding the new spacing in menus. But it was said that 'the spacing was carefully considered to ensure a balance between readability and usability across various screen sizes'. Ok, no complaints then because it's pretty useless.

RE: Opera 116.0.5356.0 developer updateBlogs
@andrew84 If this is technically possible, I would suggest using the same more advanced dark mode's options as in Opera mobile.
So not only returning the 'force dark pages' toggle back but also implementing the 'dimming' toggle switch + intensity scale.
In this case the dimming effect will work also if 'force dark pages' is disabled. In this case if some web site looks bad in 'forced dark' mode, the 'dimming' will help my eyes. Or the both options can work together (again like in mobile version) depending on user preference and web page view.
I'm sure that this will be a really useful feature for Desktop version also.Example. Original vs dimmed page
Another one example. The blog / forum page view looks ok with the 'forced dark' enabled. But the bright white text and big bright pictures still disturbing eyes a bit. So with 'forced dark' + 'dimming' it will look more pleasant to eyes.
*Additionally can be added the color temperature and dark theme schedule. But this is secondary.

Nor do I. But there's a toggle in EasySetup, not even in theme gallery or in edit theme dialogs.

RE: [Duplicated][Suggestion]Force dark theme on pages toggle on easy setupGeneral
@bozobreak said in [Duplicated][Suggestion]Force dark theme on pages toggle on easy setup:
In these cases I like to switch back to normal mode.
in this case you can right click and click disable force dark in the context menu.
But it doesn't work in the opposite case. After enabling dark mode there's no 'Enable force dark' if the general switch is not enabled in Settings.
