@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

@kilian01: fixed, when I booted up at 07:45 UTC, 2025-11-26.

@andrew84: thanks for the tip: I've now disabled the History Redesign in opera://flags

@pintofplain: you have just your Speed Dial displayed? News or weather widgets trying to update?

History sidepanel
Full URL not shown on hover
No popup text for Remove icons (can the action be reverted?)
Poor carat visibility in search box

Please could we have a caret for the History search box, when in dark mode?

@leocg Nope. Can't you just try it, yourself?

Of course, an irrelevant image could be attached, just to fulfil the requirement, but the Bandwidth Police may disapprove...

@leocg there's the requirement: "Attach any relevant files".

@yuseijaden I should thank you (and Opera), as I've only just now noticed it. Maybe it's due to monitoring usage of Easy Files? In the past I would have to use an OCR (optical character recognition) extension for an image with text in an unfamiliar language, and then translate the text. This was made much easier with Easy Files / Google (just copy the image, no need to save it). It's a process I use several times a day. It's still useful to have the option of multiple reverse image searches via an extension, for checking the first publication date for an image, as Google doesn't index everything.

@yuseijaden if you don't want to add your own shortcut, you could use a reverse image search extension, such as:

@MehrzadS try updating (using root privileges) libffmpegDOTso in Opera's lib_extra folder to the one for Chromium 138 from https://1drv.ms/u/s!AhAFddP4jtR1gWou3XWpQbFIlrFB

@thelittlebrowserthatcould:
138 works, from: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AhAFddP4jtR1gWou3XWpQbFIlrFB?e=3WcvzX

The libffmpegDOTso that was OK over the past year no longer works, and nor do replacements stolen from Chromium and Vivaldi installations.

I like some of my tab chaos, thanks. What would be useful to me would be the ability to send tabs from a domain from one or all workspaces to a particular workspace.

Possibly due to a new mouse which I accidentally right-click with quite frequently, although I cannot deliberately recreate this issue:
In Linux Mint, when using the vertical scroll-bar, Opera may unmaximise (like the problem in recent months) but there's also a green overlay over the right half of the screen, like a selection area. I clear the overlay by restarting Cinnamon (Alt+F2 then r).

@burnout426 "Set custom image" shows but had no effect.

Solved: Easy Files was the culprit. A custom image can be set from those displayed by Easy Files, but not when following its "Show all files" link. Temporarily disabling Easy Files and navigating to the custom image file works, as does copying the file and selecting it from the clipboard within Easy Files. Debian release.

@rancor6 crashing for me, too.

@burnout426 that worked, thanks, but now I cannot set a custom image (back on the Speed Dial).
