Solving Opera GX's YouTube Streaming Issues on Linux Mint

As a long-time Opera user, I have grown accustomed to its unique features and speed. However, I recently encountered an issue that prevents me from enjoying one of my favorite online activities - watching YouTube streaming videos in Opera GX on my Linux Mint system. While normal non-live YouTube videos work seamlessly, I am unable to play YouTube streaming videos using the Opera browser.

Despite this setback, I still find Opera GX to be a superior choice as my default browser due to its lightweight design and innovative features such as speed-dial bookmarks. In this article, we will explore ways to overcome the issue of YouTube streaming not working in Opera GX on Linux Mint and make the most out of this fantastic browser.

Managing Workspaces in Opera GX

One of the most useful features of Opera GX is its ability to manage multiple workspaces. This allows you to organize your tabs into separate sections, making it easier to focus on specific tasks or projects. To delete a workspace, simply right-click on the tab and choose 'Move tab to workspace.' If there are any open tabs in the selected workspace, you will receive a notification indicating that they cannot be deleted.

To add a new workspace, click on the ellipsis icon in the Opera sidebar and select 'Add more.' You can then customize the name and icon of your new workspace as needed. Additionally, you can move tabs between workspaces by right-clicking on the tab and choosing 'Move tab to workspace.'

In conclusion, while Opera GX's inability to play YouTube streaming videos is a disappointment, its other features make it an excellent choice for those seeking a lightweight and efficient browsing experience. By learning how to manage workspaces effectively, you can take full advantage of this browser's capabilities and enjoy a seamless online experience on your Linux Mint system.
