      No, it is not removable if you have to remove it everytime you start the browser.

        You don't, unless you have some serious configuration issues. Or unless you've logged in to one or another of the chat sidebars (Messenger, etc.)

          It reappears everytime I start Opera. I have to select hide to get rid off it.

          Then it is gone for the rest of the session. Until I restart.

            @stupidsidebar The same happens if you use a new clean profile?

              The old way of showing it only on speed dial page was good, the new way of either showing all the time or hiding all the time is stupid

              Why keep fixing things that aren't broken until they are broken?

                @nsx Many people complained that they were seeing a sidebar even after have disabled/unpinned it.

                So now I think that things work as should.

                  @nsx I wish I could get it to hide all the time but this does not seem to be possible it reappear every session.

                    It doesn't come back on automatically for me. But, I don't use any of the apps in the sidebar.

                      The stupid sidebar have started to appear again. It is very annoying. Why is this happening?

                      Yesterday it appeared again a shortcut to whatsapp. Wtf?! I do not use whatsapp.

                      Today it appeared with a link to instagram. I do not use instagram. Wtf is this shit.
