Our adblocker is based on easylist (same used by ad-block pro) and should block the same as adblock browser or the adblock pro extension.
However, for the adblocker to work properly in OfA you need to enable data savings and the adblocker feature in Settings.
There are some cases when you would still get ads.
- Some ad providers are whitelisted
- if you have loaded a page without data savings enabled there is a chance that the ad content has been cached and if so, it will display.
- If the content is stored on secured servers (https) we do not compress or block it due to security reasons since compression and blocking is done serverside (on turbo proxy).
- Furthermore, publishers (websites who display ads) find new ways to display their ads to the users.
Since its the only way for them to make money like sending the masked URLs to trick AdBlock List components or create new sites that is not in easy list.

The string for the setting is too long so it requires 2 rows, the second row doesn't really show except the top: Thats why it looks like spots.
We should shorten the string or alternatively truncate it.And what about glitch with loading loop of opera's forum pages(posted here earlier)

Also:
Replicable issue with saved pages:- If you mark SOME saved pages then delete them then click to system back button and then on speed-dial page click to restore those deleted saved pages app crashes! (If you mark all saved pages this is not happening. It's also not happening if you perform restoration of SOME/ALL deleted saved pages in saved pages card.) See in video: https://youtu.be/ue9OIiszbd4

Data savings / ad blocking is enabled, cache is cleared. Any ideas?

For Opera 42.3.xxxx on an LG LTE:
When using the cliptray to cut/copy-&-paste, the Opera winndow shortens and the now empty area at the top becomes a black "bar". Getting the window back to use the entire screen takes closing and reopening Opera.

New loading page is really cool.
Hmm, hasn't updated yet. Is the data savings switch more accessible now as it's shown in the pictures?

With latest releases I'm no longer able to download videos from pages from which it was possible. So, what have you done with it??

We should shorten the string or alternatively truncate it.And when will you fix it? After updates it's still the same..

Finally the new tab / home behavior is reasonable again!

No, it isn't shown and it's still buried deep in the settings, so that you use it always or more likely never. I've also tried the beta version again and while the play store pictures show saved data and an accessible switch, that's just still the OLD version, so if you please could undo the other changes of this UI change, we could have a great browser again. I think the only thing that got better with the new UI is the new sharing dialog (bonus points for adding Direct Share)
