The "Always on top" dialog bug in Linux is mainly fixed, thanks, but still occurs with a right click at the top of the vertical tab strip.

Edit: Nope, still there with horizontal tabs.

In Linux (I use the .deb release), with horizontal tab strip, this dialog appears (as expected) with a right-click in the area to the right of the tabs, but is non-functional, and requires invoking the dialog in another application, to be able to dismiss it.

@thelittlebrowserthatcould: Apologies, my comment referred to the Stable .deb release, 134.0.5954.54.

Thanks for fixing the "Always on top" stuck dialog in Linux .deb release with vertical tabs, however it is now present with the horizontal tab strip.
As before, it can be cleared by switching to another application and invoking and dismissing the dialog there.

Incidentally, my last post, deleted by "someone", about being unable to launch the browser, was due to outdated video codecs. I expected better of both the browser, and "someone".

@andrew84 I always roll my eyes when something like 20 tabs is given as an example of an extreme user. Disappointing when features like Tab Emojis are left unfinished or of limited use to me, when they could be really useful if feedback was acted on.

I tried the vertical tab layout due to a ask requiring multiple tabs, which all have long titles beginning with the same six words. Tab Emojis could've helped, but I ended up using an extension to rename each tab (none of the ones I tried worked perfectly).

@andrew84 that is related to the bug in Linux I've reported, above, caused by a right-click in the address-bar.

@thelittlebrowserthatcould:
The dialog appears when vertical tabs are used and there's a right-click in the address bar.

This Linux dialog should be dismissible by clicking elsewhere in the application.
In the current deb build I have to open the dialog in another application and dismiss it there, to also dismiss it in Opera.

There's been a dramatic slowdown for me, for the last few releases. The browser UI locks up for 30 seconds or more when moving between heavily populated workspaces. Tab-scrolling won't work, for example. Debian release.

132.0.5905.7 Debian
Start Page > Hide search box is set "on" and can't be overridden.
In case it's of interest, it takes 3.5 minutes before a page is usable, after startup. I have 765 tabs sleeping via The Marvellous Suspender. Within the first 10 seconds there's an "Opera is not responding" dialogue, which soon disappears.

What improvement does the slower startup time exhibited over recent releases achieve?

@Opera-QA-Team with x.com for example, I prefer to use Opera's dark theme, rather than the site's Lights Out option with its annoying shooting stars background.

Can you fix video progress bar visibility in dark mode, please?

@Stealthlink67 reloading the page works for me, but I'm now trying it with the in-built blocker disabled and relying on the uBlock Origin extension.

@himmelsschlingel: uBlock Origin is still useful, for blocking webpage elements. The header of this page, for example, could otherwise spoil it, if saved as a PDF.

Happy browsing? Not so much with the slow launch time. But at least my screen isn't white.
Logging in to post with my saved email address and password was not a smooth process.

Ongoing issue of https://www.royalmail.com/track-your-item#/ only rarely working, yet fine in e.g. Chromium.

I've tried a private window, accepting cookies, and allowing ads and trackers.

I use The Marvellous Suspender extension. Thanks for fixing the crash when a tab is suspended however, when a tab in another workspace is suspended, Opera switches to that workspace.

Feature request: tabs for additional windows (when used) in the "Move to" dialog for tabs.

@genegold I tried with a US proxy in a private window. Although the popups were localised there was no problem with the print preview. Sorry that that won't be much help to you.
