And when I use dev tools in opera it gives that white frame around. See how ugly this is! All for round win11 style corners.
Fedora on X11 if anyone cares.

Few month later the problem still persists. It's funny how the developers implement some marketing updates but don't care at all about the crucial features working unstable or not working at all.

I confirm this. When I scan QR on my phone to sync the syncs on the desktop is off and it signs out.

Confirming this, crashes on every snapshot being taken when trying to 'Capture' or 'Copy and close'.

@vikont-0 said in Where is the "Recently closed tabs/Tab menu" button on the top right?:

If you click on the clock symbol on the sidebar (on the left hand side), it will open a history tab, with Recently Closed tabs on top. Clicking on any of them restores a tab. It's the same functionality as before, just a different location...

Thanks for that! But still, that is not that user-friendly.

I absolulty don't like this modal popup.

Modal windows is an arguable UI approach and may be used in a situations when you need the user to stop and think before doing next step. Definitely not this situation! And you're right, it's far away from the button so it's not only logical and visual connection broken, it consumes more time since the user needs to move the cursor and target it.

O70, and the tip with flags not working again.
Opera devs had lost the spirit of the good old Opera. Now they are stubborn and ignore what the community needs at all.

Please return to recently closed tabs icon !!!

@roberto64, we should not ask them or beg them. We are the users. We'd rather uninstall this user UNfriendly browser made with hate by unfriendly devs.

@leocg why does Apple mark new models with a number if they could only leave the "iphone" itself? Opera just doesn't care.

So I don't know for you guys, but I am finally up to uninstalling Opera. I was struggling the last few versions (since 58), now I'm going to get rid of this piece of user-unfriendly crap. Have a nice struggle with the sidebar.

Just throw it on the ground. Opera is in a process of decay. It has been for years.

@another-level It is. Google "opera pub" to find the directory with all desktop versions, including stand-alones. Though I'd better get rid of the Opera.

Google "opera pub", you'll get a direct link to a directory with all the versions including previous ones.

@weirdtuned, 100% agreed. Did they move UI department to a 3rd world country after they sold Opera company to Chinese investors? That is the only one explanation for making the browser unusable multi-purpose machine with an intentional decay of the user interface.

So what's up here guys? As I understood from the messages Opera devs and designers are somewhere in a vacuum and they don't care of our opinion at all. This thing with the sidebar is the most annoying reason I stay with 58 at least for now, then I'm going to install firefox maybe.

@paulokdvc as for me, the new UI is the main reason I added opera_autoupdate executive file to the block-list of my firewall. I'd better stick with Opera 58 than dealing with the new annoying bright and sharp light theme or the blueish dark one. The side bar which disappears without a trace when I'd like to just leave it at the speed dial is the other reason.

@l33t4opera could you also do something with the themes' colors? Let users choose colors maybe with some 'flags' option.
There are always going to appear complaints like that since your UI designers seem to be perfectionists so they only spoil the good enough UI.

I hate that light eyes-burning theme where there are no boundaries between the bookmarks and the address bar; and the sidebar disappears completely although I just want to see it at Speed dial.
As for me, the Opera UI becomes worse with every update. I was Opera user since version 9 or so, now it seems like my patience ends finally.

The new light theme makes my eyes burning. Now there's no visual boundaries between the bookmarks bar and the address bar. The sidebar disappears without a trace, though I just wanted to hide it and see at the Speed dial tab only. The last few updates "make me cry" since I cannot switch off the auto-update (Windows version).

@leocg as for me, that's senseless since those giant toggle things only clutter the view.

100% agree, tried to point at that problem as well, however it's like nobody hears and everybody loves material design. C'mon, it wasn't done for the desktop.
