But just for sake of argument, how does your modus operandi distinguish tracking cookies set by 1st party rather than 3rd party?
That "solution" is growing as a way to circumvent the only realistic block option browsers possess - 3rd party block.
My solution works. Block by default and allow only a small number of sites to set cookies. As for blocking tracking, I have subscriptions in uBlock Origin to do that.
Delete metadata folder from unzipped pack. Also remove possible update url from manifest.JSON.
Deleting metadata makes sure that Opera uses only your local files.
YES! This is really an essential feature of a VPN imo.
I would need that choice to be able to access media which is only accessible from my home country, where I don't live right now.
We currently have no plans for any big changes in extensions APIs on our road map. Would parsing navigator.appVersion be enough for you? Unless there is some chromium API which would better suit your need in which case we could perhaps get into Opera without need for separate implementation.
@rudrick Opera was probably one of the first browsers to have a pop-up blocker and still has one, which seems to work fine.
If I understood correctly, Chromium's approach seems to be to open the pop-up 'minimized' so it won't interfere on user's browsing. May be interesting, as well as opening the pop-ups as tabs instead of windows.
