@burnout426 said in Opera 137 Stable:
Basing Opera on the extended stable channel of Chromium for both Opera Stable and Developer makes things easier for Opera and keeps them more stable.
Ideally, yes, but they are not basing it on extended stable channel. If that were the case, they would move from version 152 to 156.
Interestingly, it still works if you have enabled it in previous v130. It seems just the config page has been removed.
Looks like the installer executable was changed to a 7z SFX, imo this is the cause of the issue with the icon. Also, it takes more time to start the installer UI and it now extract things to %TEMP% instead of running from memory.
After upgrading to 128, I also noticed a bug with workspace icons not being displayed correctly in the sidebar, maybe related to the unicode chars I use as icons:
Today's release too Opera_GX_128.0.5807.71_Setup_x64.exe
Opera_GX_128.0.5807.51_Setup_x64.exe / Opera_GX_128.0.5807.51_Setup.exe have no icon.
Today we celebrate two major versions (123, 124) and several minor versions since the last update made to the GX changelog.
Today we celebrate 1 month since the last update made to the GX changelog. Is everything ok with @themaciekk ?

This procedure will revert:
Via Settings, Enable Widgets (opera://settings/widgets_settings)
Open the speed dial
Open the widgets menu on the speed dial (its at the top right)
There should be a bar on the top asking feedback about the new UI
Next in it, click on the back button [icon of backspace key]
There will be a prompt, optionally give feedback
Click on "revert and restart"
Let the browser restart with the old UI
@Nyaruko02 said in [Compilation]Discussions on the new Opera GX UI/Layout:
I like the old version better. I'm not a fan of this box box thingy new update. How do i revert my operaGX to the previous version?
If you have already upgraded to version 114.0.5282.218, this procedure will revert:
Via Settings, Enable Widgets (opera://settings/widgets_settings)
Open the speed dial
Open the widgets menu on the speed dial (its at the top right)

This is the "New GX Look".
I would like an option to disable it. Too bad it is being forcefully imposed now. I hate forced things that affects personal tastes.
Opera GX was the last refuge against Opera One bad UI. Not anymore, it seems.
@bestcodes said in Eric André and Opera GX bury boring browsers in chaotic rampage:
P.S. If you have issues with Opera, the tech support is awesome, just ask them to fix it and be positive and thankful.
Clearly, neither you nor Opera QA care to fix important bugs; people are reporting the same bugs in every single release since Opera One (v100). One or two critical are fixed every 2 or 3 months, but a truck of critical regressions remains.
I care about Opera, but it has taken the path of corruption. The less than 3% market share it has is proved by its [missing] quality.
Paying fanboys to lie about your problems is the way to become more irrelevant.
Good bye.
@lord-of-the-lost "Opera Software" is a single company, it should not waste money anywhere. Unless it wants to break.
GX, imo, is a temporary product made more likely for marketing purposes; some day it will be discontinued. Perhaps the broken One ui will be force-pushed into it even before it is discontinued.
One ui shouldn't have been pushed into Stable channel yet. It is clear Opera Software doesn't have developers capable of fixing it properly, and so the worst decision was made: rush it the way it was (a big unstable mess).
One may argue that Opera is trying to earn more money with such marketing partnerships . Well, it has been doing that for several years already, but the quality of its product is only decreasing. Inefficient strategy.
Other than that, the video is a good metaphor for what the Opera team is doing with the reputation of the browser, ie, hammering it until there is nothing good left to remember. Or, from a different perspective, this may be what old users will do to their computers after using Opera One for a few days.
I bet that the money wasted in this marketing campaign could pay some months of a new developer capable of fixing a lot of bugs.
"opera_gx_splash" itself is a nuisance that I'm sure never made a single user happy. Opera has long become a browser to be avoided, except for one or other feature, just like any other thing made only for invasive marketing purposes.
I'm glad GX still uses the not-so-broken traditional UI, now that "Opera One" UI is a broken and unusable thing since its birth.
Hey Opera team, you are ruining the reputation of Opera Browser every single day!
