I liked the old tab description when switching tab using ctrl+tab in MRI order, but now that it displays a preview, it's fairly useless beyond switching between two tabs.
Is there any way to turn off this preview and get the list back?

Opera GXStart up noise even when browser noises are disabled
I was rather rudely interrupted by a start-up noise in Opera GX following last weeks update. I have all browsers sounds off, and do not want a start-up noise on anything.
Please tell me this bug will be fixed before I next restart - I work in an office and need the audio for other purposes, muting the whole laptop is one heck of a difficult to remember work-around.

Opera GXRE: [Request]Opera GX on Linux
I've been an Opera user since version 6 or 7. When it switched to using webkit/blink, I stuck with the old version for a while, then shifted to Firefox. Chrome has always had it's woes. Once Opera was mostly back, I switched back, then bam "Opera GX" was released and I immediately loved it. Unfortunately, I can't stand Windows, and found myself leaving Windows for Kubuntu (I couldn't bare changing to Windows 11, and have been using Kubuntu for years on other machines anyway), but I knew this would bring with it the lose of Opera GX for me.
If only you could bring the most customisable browser to the most customisable platform - Linux!

Opera GXRE: [Request]Opera GX on Linux
@Ryan-Goyal If you read back through the thread, quite a few have suggested Wine, however you'll also see many reasons why Wine is actually not only not good enough, but actually entirely inappropriate for such a browser.
A quick recap on the points so far:
- Opera GX is built to be super efficient, but running it in Wine loses all those efficiencies
- Opera GX is built to accommodate restrictions on its use of hardware, but this doesn't work on Wine
- Vivaldi is a different browser, and is an alternative, not a solution. https://vivaldi.com/
- Firefox GX is also a different browser, an alternative, not a solution. https://github.com/Godiesc/firefox-gx
- Opera GX is built to be super customisable and efficient, like Linux, so the number of potential Opera GX users on Linux far outstrips the number of potential Opera GX users on Windows
- Linux users are more likely to be adventurous with their browser choices than Windows or Mac users
- More and more gamers are switching to Linux, including the growing popularity of things like the Steam Deck which runs on Linux
- It's next to impossible to see the popularity of this request due to the requirement for unobtainable reputation to be able to up-vote the request. Instead, the number of views and replies should be the giveaway: 5 years, 200+ replies from 136 participants, and nearing 300k views - it's probably one of the longest running threads that is still active (I can't confirm this, I would need to scan a lot of forum to find that out).
