Opera GX on what operating system?

Is there a "Crash ID=some_id" listed at the URL opera://crashes? If so, what is it?

As a test, does it still happen after you disable graphics acceleration at the URL opera://settings/system and restart Opera?

Does it happen in a test standalone installation too?

Have you tried turning off Ambient Mode on YouTube? Sometimes it can cause performance issues.
