Opera 35 has been released, and the update for the browser brings in a couple of useful new features.

This happens to be the first update for the browser in 2016, in terms of the stable release channel.

Muting Tabs:

Recently we reported that Opera added a new option to the developer version of the browser, to kill all the noise from tabs. The browser maker called this feature, “Mute me baby”. What made this feature really unique, is the fact that it allowed the [...]

Opera has updated its developer version of the browser to v35.

Technically it is Opera 34 with a few features thrown in, and here’s what they are.

Opera recently fixed an issue related to extensions, which prevented extension permissions from appearing during installation, and also manual installation of extensions.

The browser now has support for muting tabs, and the company calls this feature “Mute me baby”. No more noisy tabs, most of today’s browsers have it, right?
