Hey. I've been experiencing this issue for a while. After using it for a while (sometimes minutes, sometimes hours), Opera for Mac becomes buggy, you can't open dropdowns or menus (toolbar or context menu), you can't open or close the developer tools, it won't get focus when you click a link in another app... so it's not hanging but it's unusable, the only option is to kill the process from activity monitor and open it again. Opera is up to date, MacOS 13.6.1 on an M2. Any ideas what it could be?

Opera becomes unresponsiveGeneral
Hello, very often Opera on my Mac becomes unresponsive. Pages still work but all menus, context menu, and dialogs stop working, and clicking the dock icon or doing cmd+tab won't bring it to the front (you can go back to Opera only if the window is visible and you click on it). I can't close it (the only way to resolve this is killing the main process from the activity monitor). Not even the apple menu works while opera is focused. It happens all the time, regardless of what pages I'm browsing.
I'm on Opera One(version: 120.0.5543.93) (arm64), M4 Macbook Pro with Seqoia 15.3.1. Although this has been happening for many versions, it used to happen in my previous M2 and M1 Macbook Air, with these machines it was so bad that I switched to a different browser for a while. But I just want to stay with Opera.
It just happened and CPU is under 10%, RAM is under 75%, of the Opera processes the worst one is the main Opera process with 537 Mb or RAM 0,7% CPU. Some Opera Helper (GPU) or Opera Helper (Renderer) eventually jump to around 11~14% CPU, but none is stuck at high usage. So I doubt it's a lack of resources. I can't open Opera's own tasks manager to check.
Any way I can improve this? Or provide more details to help debug this? Just let me know. Thanks!
