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.
Sample tracking code: MZ468231119GB
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.
With the previous release, I was getting occasional unwanted change of workspace, when moving around pages with mouse. Debian build.
@sgrandin I have to use a US proxy (Opera's VPN works) to access that site from across The Pond, but then I can't see that search term. On the other hand, plenty of hits, with expected behaviour, at: https://www.stroke.org/en/
I'm finding Opera won't clean up after itself when closed, leaving 11 or 12 processes, two with noticeable CPU utilisation. This stops me from being able to restart Opera, unless I kill the main process, or reboot.
Debian build.
It would be useful if Search Tabs and Tabs (opera://activity/) were divided into Workspaces.
@Opera-QA-Team Cheers! I would appreciate it if the emojis could be checked and adjusted for usefulness: many are too small.
I wanted to use tab emojis.
First problem: remembering what they're called. Labels and icons as alternative search terms would have helped.
Main problem: the selection dialog disappears when I mouse towards it.
Debian build.
@opera-qa-team: it's 124.0.5705.65 via the repository, and the link on this page.
Now that my Linux version has successfully installed, I did have to update the location for the lib_extra folder.
My libffmpegDOTso from September still seemed OK, but I updated it anyway, from: https://github.com/Ld-Hagen/fix-opera-linux-ffmpeg-widevine/releases/latest
