You mean a persona. I see. I have not seen such a thing for Opera. The closest thing Opera has to a theme is the dark theme (which uses text which is too dark to read easily).

If you right-click a tab, you can choose to close the other tabs. Is that not good enough?

Thank you Rudrick but unfortunately the extension you shared is available for desktop version only and this feature is something that I am looking for in the mobile version.. Never mind if the powers that be deem this a good feature we will get it someday.. I am pretty happy with browser as it is today ☺️

SOmetimes it feels the heart menu is there too far away right side of the screen. Ad blocker popup would be better of there on far right corner. The heart menu popup was one of the best things we got from very early on. Oh well stagnation resides among the heart menu too 😕

Opera's VPN is not in relation to Incognito specifically.

Incognito keeps all cache in RAM therefor there wont be traces left to HDD. Incognito is very local, while VPN gives a layer of protection from trackers out and about.

Get uMatrix if you yet don't have.

It's not like that it's a few connections (sniffers, trackers, phishers, etc) those blockers block - it's hundreds.
A reader-view feature would be needed.

I just saw a tiny intelligent snipped (CSS) on Twitter. Perhaps reader-mode not that "hard" to come by, but then again internet is wast so probably it might take time to sweeting it correctly.

Hi, thanks for the reply. There is an option called Paste and Match Style, but it is a rather complicated move(ALT+SHIFT+CMD+V), I don't see the need for the extra key, but better than nothing, I guess.

I agree, it makes quite a bit more sense to open these links in a new tab, since by their nature of not having an <a href> tag, they never are used for site navigation. This means the user is forced to leave the current site to use this feature.

I'm not sure how much Opera can do about it, maybe some.
But what you seeing in the sidebar is basically the same "version of Messenger" that is in www.messenger.com
I haven't used these sidebar messengers - can one change zooming of it's content so that it's no on relation to the main screen? Hmmm try adding custom zoom to setting for www.messenger.com that might work. For the chat heads I don't have an Idea.
