@Loquality Thanks I disabled the Opera ad blocker and the nyt now workers. I don't like ads and if the ads increase I'll go back to Safari. Not a word from Opera or nyt. Rather disappointing.

Does anyone else agree with me that Preview on lingering over existing tabs is distracting and unhelpful. I do wish Opera would get rid of this feature. Otherwise it is a magnificent browser.
