New tabs area design looks awful. Now there is a mess when many tabs are opened.
Also why there is so much empty space above tabs?

When there are a lot of opened tabs, some of which are pinned, at some point of time when tab bar scrolling is disabled and pinned tab is active, there is no possibility to switch to the tab at the end or to create a new tab because some part of the tab bar is overlapped by search icon.

Last time this happened when I clicked middle mouse button on the link being on a regular tab (that action created a new tab island) and then switched to pinned tab.

This is long lasting issue that persists since tab island was introduced or even older.

Extensions that were broken in the last build are still broken on Linux x64.
Repair button does not work.
Here is what I see at the console when press repair button:

[2223667:2223667:0201/222337.031388:ERROR:CONSOLE(0)] "Uncaught (in promise) Error: Could not fetch data from the Opera add-ons catalog", source: chrome://extensions/?menu=updates (0)

@skpy: Forgot to mention I'm on Kubuntu 22.04

I started browser by clicking on the link in my email client and unfortunately all my opened tabs from the last session was gone

What currently happens with libffmpeg.so in last builds on Linux (Ubuntu 22.04) is terrible:

1. built-in libffmpeg.so works only with YouTube and YouTube Music. Any other pages with media content are crashing.
2. I tried to use external libffmpeg.so from chromium and chromium-ffmpeg snaps (using symlinks into lib_extra derectory:
   /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera-developer/lib_extra/libffmpeg.so -> /snap/chromium/current/usr/lib/chromium-browser/libffmpeg.so
   or
   /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera-developer/lib_extra/libffmpeg.so -> /snap/chromium-ffmpeg/current/chromium-ffmpeg-108372/chromium-ffmpeg/libffmpeg.so
   ) but that only fixed playback on Netflix but other sites still crashes (even YouTube which works with native library).
   Please tell me if I can provide any additional info to resolve this issue

I lost all my opened tabs in all space using this build. It happened after I closed the browser with opened and pinned music player in the sidebar. Thanks to God, I recently saved all tabs to speed dial

Also tab icon overflows tab island line (I assume it is related to sound that is coming from multiple tabs inside an island).
Also sometimes Opera for some reason intercept focus from other applications

Now when there is sound playing in the background tab audio icon is not visible anymore

@thelittlebrowserthatcould I agree with previous commenter that tab scrolling is not suitable. I have important tabs at the start of tab bar and new temporary tabs are at the end. It is convenient to access tabs at the end and at the start but is annoying to scroll from start to end and back each time. I have 2 workspaces with more than 100 tabs in each (unfortunately things that I have to take care or handle coming faster than I can resolve them. Using bookmarks instead will guarantee that I will never recall about them)
