@tsullivan Personally, I am not convinced by the horizontal download bar. Since "Bookmarks" and "History" can slide out of the sidebar, it would be best to do "Downloads" in the same form.
@Mihnea275 now We have 5 communicator in stable Opera. You want Reddit to be added, someone may want Steam Chat, someone Discord, someone else just another... How many will be? Therefore, in my opinion, the best solution will be if all messengers will be in the form of extensions. If someone doesn't need one, they just uninstall it. In addition, messenger extensions can be created not only by Opera programmers but also by programmers creating add-ons. https://forums.opera.com/topic/39669/all-sidebar-messengers-in-the-form-of-extensions/
i dont want to pin the sidebar, i'm just saying it would just be more useful if you could still see and access the whole MenuBar while sidebar is expanded.
Would look way more professional IMO
