So I've received the latest GX Update that has the Major UI and Feature Overhaul, very nice so far but there is a Critical GPU Error going around while running Opera GX, at some point whether I'm just casually browsing Twitter or Watching Netflix the Browser will become extremely sluggish and any shader effects active begin juttering intensely.

Then All Animations for the Browser just Stop, The Browser itself will still run but now closing & opening tabs just have a static effect, any themes or wallpapers go white, and in the Mods Menu it will have disabled multiple mods stating that "Hardware Acceleration is enabled but not available due to GPU Error".

At that point, Shaders, Splash Effects, Wallpapers etc and another browser animations will remain broken and disabled until the browser is closed and relaunched.

Now, I've Reinstalled Both the Firmware and Drivers of my Nvidia RTX 3090 GPU Twice as-well Rolled the browser Back and Forth from the new GX Update to the old version, then back to new version multiple times to see whether it's truly my GPU that's causing the Error of whether it's something occurring within the new GX Update.

So far, this Error is only occurring on the Latest Version of Opera GX, as this problem didn't arise until now.

I'm not sure why this is happening, but until it's resolved I've got not choice but to manually disable any browser animations, shaders, and wallpaper themes until a fix is made, otherwise the browser is Incapable to be used without becoming a slog of slowness.

Most of the time so far in these last few days, this GPU Error the browser detects can happen at any time, whether I'm casually browsing my emails after only 40 minutes of launching the browser, or over 3 hours when I'm in the midst of listening to Spotify or Watching Netflix. There is no specific pattern of the Trigger.

But there is one thing I can do to cause the Error to Emerge, sometimes the browser breaks into what I call a "Partial Crash" of the Hardware Acceleration when only the wallpaper has been affected and nothing else, If I then attempt to change the Wallpaper to another Animated or Live Wallpaper the sluggish feeling begins to dramatically increase, resulting in GX Mod Shaders & All Browser Animations to then Disable and state an error has occurred.

Anybody else experiencing any issues similar to my own with the new Update?!

So far I'm enjoying the latest Opera GX Overhaul Update, while I had become quite fond of the Look of GX that has existed for quite some time now, the new changes are pretty good, not perfect but nice. The new options for altering the look and feel of the browser are also a welcome step-up from what we had previously.

There are some issues though, for instance while the new options for Mods like being able to change Icons, Splash Screens and fonts are very much welcome additions to have, it is a shame that a lot of my past mods are no longer compatible anymore. Whether they get updated in the future by the users that created them I'm not sure but I hope they are so I may use them once more.

I do appreciate the step-up in performance & stability the browser has gotten as in the past having multiple mods as well as extensions could be very taxing to the overall speed and responsiveness of the browser, but it has not resolved those issues completely. I still get some jitters and sluggishness from time to time but not as severe as before, but shaders are still the most taxing issue, even having just one enabled can take a hit on browser performance which sucks but a bigger issue is some mods now freeze over a "GPU Error".

Now I've checked and reinstalled my Nvidia RTX 3090's GPU's Firmware and Drivers Twice Now, and rolled the browser back and forth from the new update to the old and then back again to the new overhaul, this error was not occuring on the older version of GX so I hope this problem can be resolved and the overall efficiency of mods and extensions is further improved upon in future updates.

Finally, a nitpick, before on the Old GX Browser UI, all my bookmarks fit neatly at the top of the page, But I'm guessing in the new update the font or spacing between bookmarks changed just a smidge but enough for about eight of them to slip into the hidden bookmarks tab of the browser which kinda sucks, would be nice to change that at least back to how it was in the previous itteration of Opera GX, Still, that's a personal nitpick.

• Feature Request:
  One feature for GX Mods that I have wanted for a long time is to be able to select multiple mods with the Background Music Option, We Can Select Multiple "Web Modding" so I think this should be the same for Music as well, so that we can have a playlist that randomizes what you hear each time Opera GX is Launched. So I hope that request for Background Music Playlist can be achieved one day, It's the not the biggest deal to go into GX Mods and manually change the music, but it would be easier overall to just have a playlist.

As a whole I think this update did a lot of good changes, just some teething issues that need addressing.

I'd be totally down for this, It would certainly expand the Varying Wallpaper Selections we have but to do this, but they'd not only have to make an agreement with the person who Created Wallpaper Engine, but also permission from steam to access the workshop as that's where User-Created Wallpapers are uploaded too.

I think it's possible in the future this could be a partnership we'd see, but there's a couple of hurdles aside from agreements that would need to be made, Plugin's to be developed, patches made for Wallpaper Engine to work in conjunction with Opera's Multithreaded Compensator, etc.

Also, additionally work on GX Mods so that it plays nice with the Wallpaper Engine Plugin, as it has it's own Wallpaper Mod Access, so you don't want that to override wallpaper engine and vice versa, and there's the thing of wallpapers that might have music attached to them and how to handle that.

I'm sure these things can be managed, but it would certainly take time.
