Amazing, it is now possible to have a website create a popup window in Opera that you can't move and can't close... Unless you are fortunate enough to know about Alt-Drag to move or Alt-F4 to close... Oh, but wait, that doesn't work on a touch-screen does it?!

Like others on this thread, I too am now looking to an alternative unless it looks like this "feature" will be fixed. Vivaldi's looking nice so far.

Edit: Browsing around, found this page:

Smiled at the comment from KS at the bottom: That only works in older browsers. Modern browsers won’t let you remove the title bar because then there’s no way to close the window.

Seems that is not so true anymore 😉

... So, supposedly, Opera old users and starters would forget once and for all
the Opera 12.xx versions or possible sucessor, and together,
use only new versions of Opera, based on Chromium open-source Project.

The various olde Opera versions (including 12.xx) are still available by following the path to your particular OS at:
ftp://ftp.opera.com/pub/opera/

They have not refused to implement it. Who told you that? They have said they are working on it.

And when are they going to implement it, in version 55? Opera received numerous complaints about this in 15. Four versions later they have still not fixed it.
