Hi!
There's an even better way:

curl -L -O https://github.com/iteufel/nwjs-ffmpeg-prebuilt/releases/download/0.47.2/0.47.2-linux-x64.zip
unzip 0.47.2-linux-x64.zip
sudo mkdir /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera/lib_extra
sudo mv libffmpeg.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera/lib_extra

Opera will automatically use the version in lib_extra and the mod will survive opera upgrades. So you'll only need to do this once.

I really don't like the reborn 3 dropdown. Especially the fact that it greys out the full page when you start typing.
Can it be made a permanent config option instead of just a flag?

I'd say: "Make it work or remove it."

The extention does not work at all in the current Opera.

Thanks. This version restored some long lost performance for video player and scrolling that was gone since around Opera 58, on Linux/RS780L [Radeon 3X00].

@kamil7165: Here here! The new sidebar behaviour is too clunky. You cannot reorder icons. Too much space wasted. It steals space from the tabs bar and it is not even resizeable as neededl. (It can be resized, but only up to a point - which is insufficient for me).
Please, opera staff, fix this new bar or use the "Extensions bar" code, instead of the browser bar, for this unified functionality.
It would be more functional and less space-hungry, while still allowing for the unified functionality you're seeking.
I can wait on an older version, but not forever.

p.s. Dear opera makers, please remember that there is still people with monitors less than FHD, and also that there is people whom do not like to browse full-screen.
Would you cater to those audiences, please?

I do not like the dimming of the page in the redesigned address bar. Please keep the old behaviour around.

The reborn bar replacing the extension bar poses a problem.
Whereas the extension bar lived below the address bar, the reborn bar lays on top of everything and when expanded to show an extension panel, it would steal quite a bit of space from the tabs and address bar.

This is particularly egregious at lower resolutions, such as the typical 1366x768 of most run off the mill, cheap-ish Notebooks.

Also it messes with your muscle memory, because it moves around the navigation controls every time you switch.

I would really, really, like an option to confine the reborn bar below the address bar.

I tend to keep my (V7 extension) bookmarks visible and while real estate is at a premium, this new layout messes up my work-flow.

This is my browser window right now, in Opera 53:
*(I still use Opera 53 due to a longstanding bug that disables subpixel font rendering in opera internal pages and interface.)


This is what it would be reduced to, with the reborn bar:


And there are only 22 Tabs. Imagine with 100+...

@andrew84: There is one in the preferences and with right click menu.
What is missing though is the option to change the order of icons within the bar.

I really don't like the reborn 3 dropdown. Especially the fact that it greys out the full page when you start typing.
Can it be made a permanent config option instead of just a flag?

Recently Opera started creating a new session upon startup even when it's already running.

How can I make it reuse the current session instead?
