Opera's ad-blocker uses Easylist's list so I guess you can contact them and ask to add promoted twitters to it.

Agreed and I would like to see Opera restore/open startup pages/tabs if one selects File>New Window. As it is now one has to close Opera and reopen it to get saved pages/tabs to reload.

Interesting idea.
First I thought you were lazy to hit PageUp though.

Lol...
But yeah, this feature is gold, I became so addicted to this, it's so intuitive and useful and now it's so hard to use a browser without it, but I have faith in Opera team and I hope they'll like/implement this feature...

Fingers crossed right now... 🙂

"Hello! Please go into the options of Opera and Search:

Open a specific page or set of pages

and add your sites. :happy:"

This is not what he's looking for. He's looking for persistent PINNED tabs, as am I. The fact that Opera does not have this inherently is pretty awful. All other major browsers offer this functionality. This is the feature that is keeping me from making Opera my primary browser as I refuse to manually re-pin six tabs every time I launch Opera.

BTW, first post mentions Windows 7 as the mostly used OS, so it looks like this option is for old OSes.
But its not!
I use Windows 10 with crystal clear old-school fonts and I need this option on this LATEST Microsoft OS.

If indeed smooth scrolling is giving you motion sickness than I bet you don't use mobile phones because of that...

Position the cursor a tiny bit above the link above the first letter you want to select. Then, drag down and to the right. It's obviously not as easy as it was in old Opera, but you kind of get used to it.

Makes sense, the question being which averaging formula to use.

It doesn't seem major though.
If the speed isn't very stable, it's better for the user to estimate themselves.

Such an estimation formula for highly uneven connections wouldn't be too accurate anyway.
Well, if the dynamics has a certain median, it'd make sense for larger files though.

A location you can choose to appear to be from, basically - though I'd call that an exit node to be more specific.

Methinks somebody wants to use BBC iPlayer outside the UK.

There is no need to bump own suggestions, specially after just a short period of time.
