![]() ![]() Whoever came up with this idea should be reprimanded and demoted and either the old UI reinstated or some new UI that is functional, compact and not a buggy mess be developed. I'm sorry, but I'm not sorry, this new UI revamp for no reason and for the sake of making useless changes is a disaster. Just think about it - everything that makes the Opera 100's UI bigger than that of Brave is because of useless eye candy that doesn't make anything better.Īlso, you still can't move the mouse to the rightmost end of the screen and grab the sidebar in Opera 100, nothing happens, on every other program, browser or Opera 99 and older, you could do it. I ask to add at least an option to revert the tabs' appearance to their old version that look like actual folder tabs and take up less space. I think this UI redesign is ugly and pointless and it's making the browser worse. It's mostly because those stupid, useless and ugly "tab islands" obviously need to have shadows, because without those massive shadows, Opera 100 will not be useful enough. Now they take so much more space - you can see where the Brave UI ends and where the webpage begins and compare it to where Opera 100's UI ends and where the webpage begins. ![]() First Firefox came up with this stupid idea, then Edge copied it and now Opera copied it. Now they look like some ugly "tab islands". Now tabs don't look like the folder tabs where the idea for tabs originally came from. The difference is the new UI introduced in Opera 100 makes it really oversized and not really beautiful or useful. You can see in the image Brave on the left and Opera 100 on the right. AppearanceĮver since the first beta for Opera 100, I installed it excited to see the changes and here are the problems: Please, Opera Team, reconsider reverting some of the changes for the UI, they are horrible and making the browser from a pleasant into a horrible experience.īefore I would suggest the browser to everyone and use it as my only browser, now I'm using Brave and not recommending Opera to anyone after version 100. Now the new UI has a purple accent color, but the funny thing is the accent color for the settings is still blue. The irony is that beyond the topmost layer of the UI, Opera still uses the same old UI for its settings page. It's the type of UI change that Firefox likes to do every few years when it feels more and more irrelevant - they refresh the UI to trick people that their dead browser is evolving. They aren't bringing any new features whatsoever. They are making the Opera experience worse in every way. These UI changes in Opera One are absolutely horrible and bad. This is unacceptable and horrible! No other browser does that, no other program does that either. Now a person has to stop the mouse a few pixels away from the right edge to do that. What's worse is this frame is pushing the scrollbar further inside so it's no longer possible to move the mouse to the rightmost edge of the screen and grab the scrollbar. This frame that encompasses the webpage is also taking away valuable space from the horizontal parts of the webpage, displaying less of it when there is no reason for this. (Just like the tab islands which originated in Firefox are a horrible idea) This is something the new versions of Edge are doing and it's not good at all. Alternatively, bring back the old appearance of tabs where they are attached to the main chrome of the browser.Īnother issue is the new "frame" around the vertical sides of the browser, encompassing the webpage. For this I suggest to either remove the shadows or shorten them significantly so they don't take up useless space. Here the "tab islands" have a shadow underneath that is already taking up valuable pixel space that could be used to display more of the website. There new so-called "tab islands" are oversized and they aren't better than the old tabs inspired by the old real life paper folder's tabs. Opera One's UI size is horribly enlarged and for no apparent reason, here you can see a screenshot for comparison between the same website displayed in Brave and Opera One:Īs you can see, Opera's UI is significantly larger and for no reason.
