Question for the network experts: I have installed "DNS over HTTPS" (Quad9) in the form of a profile on my iMac Pro with the latest macOS Sonoma. When I call up the test page (on.quad9.net), Safari tells me "Yes, you are using Quad9", but Opera (latest version) tells me "No, you don't use Quad9". Why? The installed profile should apply system-wide in the network. Only when I activate DoH in the Opera settings and add Quad9 (again!) does it also work under Opera...
Can someone explain this to me?

RE: Ads and tracking blockers don't pass EFF Cover Your Tracks TestOpera for Mac
Built-in ad and tracking blockers do not seem to fulfill what they promise. I don't use them. With an external ad and tracking blocker (Adguard for Mac in my case), Opera passes these tests without any problems.

RE: Chrome Extensions?Opera for Mac
It seems that this extension is outdated. I did install it once at the time, but now it's turned off and I can still (as @leocg writes) load extensions directly from the Chrome Web Store. On the overview it says if it is compatible with your device and when you install it you get a warning message that the extension is not from Opera addons. It will probably be the case (as it used to be) that Chrome extensions under Opera may not offer all features.

Quad9 DNS-ServerOpera for Mac
Any of you know why Opera (latest version) always displays the Quad9 query on on.quad9.net with "No, you don't use Quad9" even though Quad9 is set up as a DNS server (DoH)? Both Safari and a terminal command indicate that Quad9 is active as a DNS server. Only Opera refuses. Only if the Quad9 servers (without DoH) are entered directly into the network settings, the query also works with Opera: "Yes, you are using Quad9". Opera seems to ignore the settings via an app (DNSecure) or via a profile, or does not recognise it

RE: Send via email (macOS)Opera for Mac
As already mentioned elsewhere: The "Share" button was already deleted without replacement some Opera versions ago.

No, for some unknown reason, the "Share" button was already removed without replacement a few versions ago.

RE: Geolocation not workingOpera for Mac
Does it work with other browsers? e.g. Safari?
Possibly the corresponding location services are not enabled in macOS. -
RE: Why is the Extensions button in the address bar useless?Opera for Mac
@hyun-shik said in Why is the Extensions button in the address bar useless?:
I also already know what extensions are active because they show up in the address bar.
This is exactly the purpose of this button: With it you can control which extensions you want to have displayed there. If you pin an extension, it always stays in the menubar, if not, it disappears again when you restart Opera (you have to reposition it).

How about download the latest Opera for your system from the Opera homepage and install it?

RE: Adguard not compatible with OperaOpera for Mac
@yunhi Something seems to be going wrong with your system. I also have "Adguard for Mac" running (system-wide) and it works fine with the latest Opera.
macOS Big Sur 11.2.3
Opera 75.0.3969.93 (x86_64)
Adguard for Mac 2.5.3.955

RE: Version:70.0.3728.178 -Slow since latest updateOpera for Mac
Two? Even if one includes the number of unreported cases, the problem does not seem to be widespread. Here in a forum, people who have problems get in touch. Those who don't have any will hardly ever get in touch.
I'm just bothered by the thought that a bug that relatively few people have is stylized into a general problem that "must" affect all Opera users. So the statements and partly spiteful answers in this thread reach me.
There seems to be an Opera problem that does not affect all users and probably in connection with other system settings that you are probably not even aware of.
I know that this answer is not too helpful for this problem, but it had to be said. -
RE: Version:70.0.3728.178 -Slow since latest updateOpera for Mac
If it were a pure Opera problem, most people would probably have the same problem you mentioned. But it doesn't seem so, otherwise your thread would probably "overflow”.
I don't doubt that you have a problem with Opera, but as I said before, it's probably not just Opera. Unfortunately I can't help you, because I can't reproduce your problem. It is not said that all extensions "work" identically in all browsers. The substructure might not be the same. For example, extensions from the Chrome Web store under Opera sometimes have limited functionality. This is also mentioned by Opera when you load an extension for Opera which is actually intended for Chrome.
By the way: Do you still have this bug with the latest Opera version 72.0.3815.200? -
RE: Version:70.0.3728.178 -Slow since latest updateOpera for Mac
Please don't conclude from your problem to all Opera users: Here Opera (latest version) runs without problems, fast and smoothly. I don't think that Opera alone is the problem...

RE: [Solved]I've lost my Opera Home PageOpera for Mac
Simply open a desired page, copy the address, click on "+ Add..." on the speed dial page and paste the copied page. Done.

RE: [Solved]I've lost my Opera Home PageOpera for Mac
I strongly assume that "home page" means "speed dial". Probably you deactivated it yesterday by mistake. You can enable speed dial again in the settings. You might have to put them together again.

RE: Was the “normal” Sidebar removedOpera for Mac
I don't know exactly what the problem is, but under "Opera" "Display" you have the item "Show sidebar". If activated, you have the narrow sidebar with vertical buttons, not activated the normal horizontal buttons (Opera 70.0.3728.106).

RE: DNS PROBE FINISHED NXDOMAIN MessageOpera for computers
Unfortunately I can't say anything about it, because I had always deactivated DOH. But I suppose that this is a bug in the latest version or it " gets stuck " with other settings. I would wait for the next update. Can't take too long.

RE: DNS PROBE FINISHED NXDOMAIN MessageOpera for computers
Why DOH at all? I deactivated DOH in the browser and set Cloudflare (1.1.1.1 etc.) directly in the router as DNS server. No problems (Opera 70).
