So I guess the functionality is implemented on Windows, but it doesn’t seem to be implemented on Linux (Ubuntu). I tried dragging a link to Sublime Text, the default text editor, and LibreOffice Writer, but nothing worked. I'm using Opera 13.0.5230.32 64 bit also.

@burnout426 Ok. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try to install the deb package on a VM running Ubuntu and I'll let you know if the drag-and-drop link functionality is working.

@burnout426 I just installed the .deb package (version 113.0.5230.47) and the drag-and-drop functionality doesn't work either. So it's probably safe to conclude that it's not implemented at all on Linux.

Ability to drag-and-drop links from Opera to a text document.Suggestions and feature requests
It would be great to add the ability to drag-and-drop links from Opera directly to a text document. Right now, if we want to grab a link and add it to a text document, we have to right-click the link and select "copy link address" than paste it in the document. In contrast to other chrome-based browsers, we can simply drag-and-drop the link to the document which is extremely more efficient if we want to copy multiple links.
A typical scenario might be having a YouTube page open with multiple suggested videos, and needing to grab links for 10 of these videos to send to someone. We could simply drag and drop these 10 links into a text document in a matter of seconds. Currently, we have to right-click each link, select "Copy link address," and then paste each link individually, which is much more time-consuming.
I think that would be a great feature to add.
