It can't be easier, technically, since Maxthon alread had this function for years!

Why this would be useful: Sometimes you just want to do something that does not save cookies, history etc, but don't want to open a new window. If you want to browse private totally for a while, private windows can be good, but if you just want to quickly open a tab, private tabs are better.

You forgot it doesn't take extra space in the system taskbar. Which looks tidier, especially if you have already got quite a bunch of tasks running there.

I can confirm that Opera for Android doesn't have support for extensions.

A night mode feature exists actually, but In Opera Mini beta for Android. Perhaps they can implement it in Opera for Android too?

Opera already has that feature for plugins. Go to settings > sites > plugins > click to play

Make it easier to add a bookmark to folder

Leocg thanks for the heads up on the alternative way. I do know about that method though and it is still convoluted and time consuming for me. You have to trawl through all your folders and subfolders to find the right one. Doing it the chrome way is easier because you can simply click on the folder and then bookmark by right clicking. Either in that folder or in a sub folder in that folder.

Bookmarking methodology, for me, is probably one of the biggest usability concerns in any browser.

Perhaps he should get a definitive answer. I'm not an expert in this area, but in the first post @gregorw wrote "this needs to be documented in your EULA and privacy policy." With needs, do you mean should or must by law? Because if it's in the last mentioned case, it is important.

it is actually one of the reasons for me to keep using the old versions which load very slowly on heavier sites compared to the new opera versions

and the plug-ins for this aren't very useful since they focus on the page being refreshed aside from doing it in the background, sorry for double posting but i can't edit

Yeah, now I clearly see what you mean. I haven't experienced that problem, so I have now idea why you get it. Your specs didn't seem to be bad, perhaps it's a problem with your graphic driver? Have you experienced problems in other applications and overall performance, or it is only Opera?

Everything works fine and this issue is just in Chromium-based browsers. Old Opera and Firefox work perfectly!

*update - Montenegrin language still exists in Opera 28, however, in order to be activated it's needed to re-install the Opera.

Also, you may change in settings the language from Montenegrin to e.g. English, however, you can't change from English to Montenegrin! The only way to change to Montenegrin is to re-install Opera again. Weird.
