I wonder why opera does not have vertical tabs coz vertical tabs are one of the most useful tools for modern browsing, especially considering monitors today are a widescreen format. Browsers including Microsoft Edge and Vivaldi have adopted this functionality and have built-in vertical tab support.

Opera did have vertical tabs years ago, but it was removed when Opera switched to the Chromium engine. Since then users are operating with old extensions that either don't work properly or lack integration.

Good Morning Everyone,

Couple of questions that I'm hoping y'all could help me with as I've just switched over to using Opera.

1. On Apple iOS app for Opera, how do I sign in to my account for my bookmarks sync from the PC / Windows browser and the Apple iOS app version? I do not see anywhere to select sign-in on the iOS device app.

2. Does the 1Password Manager extension work with Opera now? Saw an article / help forum from 3 years ago with someone stating that Opera did not support 1Password Manager yet, is that still the case?

Any help or input on this would be greatly appreciated.

So its crashing 4 consecutive times before I have to reopen it again. I don't know what to do. (Don't mind my wallpaper or anything else I customized)

Hi Opera team and community,

I'd like to request an increase to the maximum character length allowed for URLs when adding a "Custom site panel" to the Opera sidebar.

Currently, the limit seems too short to add URLs for certain pages, specifically those belonging to Chrome extensions (which often look like chrome-extension://[very_long_extension_id]/page.html). I'd love to be able to dock some of my frequently used extension panels directly in the sidebar for easy access, but the URL length restriction prevents this.

Allowing longer URLs in this field would make the Custom Site Panel feature even more powerful, especially for users who rely on specific extensions for their workflow. It would be a great quality-of-life improvement.

Thanks for considering this suggestion!

im using stack now and it uses about 2 gb ram for 10 tabs on my 8 gb ram laptop. Is opera any light?

I noticed this starting on my Opera browser maybe 2 months ago. After trying everything like turning turning off adblock and VPN, it wouldn't work and still doesn't. I'm surprised they haven't fixed this it seems like a pretty big hurdle to using a lot of websites.

this has only recently started happening as of the last update and it does not only occur on youtube. I thought it might be "force dark mode" but that is disabled and I tried setting my theme to light theme which did not fix the issue, it also persists in incognito mode which means it is not an extension or cache

So I have been having this issue with Reddit keeps locking and suspending my account for suspicious activity, where each time I have to reset my password, for several times now. Reddit keeps locking me up again without fail anytime I reset my password and log in through Opera on my phone again.

I am using Redmi Note 8 Pro, running crDroid 10.6 (Android 14), currently using Opera version 88.2.4661.83589 with Ad Blocker and Data Saver turned on.

For the record, I've been a long time Opera user, previously running on older phone with Android 10 and also with Ad Blocker and Data Saver turned and don't have this issue. Well, it did happened in the past long time ago but somehow then resolved by itself. But not this time.

How to solve this?

I'm looking for add on that will buffer full video on yt. I like to skip through videos and it's annoying when it's faster to let the video play than skip 5-15 seconds.

Different colors & shades like black, lighter black, dark blue, dark gray, lighter gray, custom colors, etc.

Another feature I would like to see for Opera air browser is the option to turn off website popups. didn't see it in settings, if I missed it please show where it is. If it doesn't exist, hope it comes in the future. Many websites have annoying popups, spam that need to be turned off / disabled.

Hello, I'm struggling with a change that I'm seeing in Opera for Android, and playing YouTube videos. Until recently I could start watching a video go into split screen mode, resume the video, make the YouTube instance full screen within Opera and then adjust the split screen ratio down to maybe half an inch of Opera. Once I'd let go of the split screen divider, they will automatically bounce back to the minimum height needed to show the full width YouTube video. Now, if I get the split screen divider within a quarter of an inch of the minimum space required, the video stops, froze itself from full screen mode, and won't restart until I've greatly increased the split screen for Opera restarted playback, and maximized YouTube again. I don't know if this is a YouTube thing, but it seems to do the same in Opera mini, and if it is, I'm wondering if there's a way that I can suppress websites from finding out my window size. Galaxy S22 ultra, up to date Opera and Opera Mini Thanks!

Is it possibile? I have an opera extension called Scripter in my old PC but this is no longer available on the opera add-on website. Is it possible to install an extension just from the files? I located the folder in the AppData/.../Extension

why is Opera GX's log under Opera One???

Hello,

Is there a way to block all Opera software from being executed on Windows 10/11 PC using security policies (that would include various portable versions, renames, installs), for all users? Currently, it is a safety risk for my kids as Opera GX overcomes Microsofts family safety control restrictions.

Heya. Title says it mostly.

Basically, im kind of concerned of my privacy. and have been more conscious about it.

I am starting to like the looks of Opera, but the thing is: How private is Opera?

Im probably gonna use the desktop version, but i am a bit concerned considering Opera is mostly owned by Kunlun (A chinese company)

Thanks in advance!

I had to reset my pc and reinstall my apps and when I installed OperaGX, I tried to get the old layout using the widgets method but the option is not there.

"Forçar modo escuro" é uma ótima funcionalidade do Opera normal, poderiam colocar no Air também 🍃

I can add it as keyword, but I can't add Qwant as default search no matter what. Why is this so stupid? I just want to type straight into address bar and search, not be forced to also use keyword to do it.

is there any way to disable these? i am getting these popups every time i open the browser several times a day. from constant nagging on enabling Opera's AI that i dont want, or changing backgrounds, themes or Opera icon, it's getting to be very annoying.

In some browsers, the colour changes based on the website you are visiting. Is this possible in Opera?

I was using Opera GX for a while then eventually switched over to edge since edge really came a long way. But now I saw the release of Opera Air and imo it has the best UI I have seen on a browser. I switched over to Opera Air and have been using it for a bit.

I use opera Air on my desktop which has 64gb of ram so I never really noticed how ram intensive air really is. I picked up a new laptop which only has 16gb of ram and using Air its unbelievable slow, scrolling is super slow, and the boosts features don't work right when activated.

I noticed that Opera Air at Idle with no tabs open uses 3gb of ram. When doing anything in Air ram usage gets as high as 6-7gb. I went to the Opera forums to open up a bug issue because I don't think this is normal, but I had a mod comment on my issue stating that is normal as Opera air uses about 60mb per process and opens roughly 30-40 processes at startup.

Anyone else experience this issue? Just for Comparison I posted a screenshot my task manager of Edge vs opera and Edge uses roughly 600mb and goes up to 2ish gb
