as a replacement for disqus or can one still use the disq-account here (probably not)?
And it seems astonishingly similar to vivaldi, they've set it up like this for quite some time...

@aphaltgrau Yes, this mechanism, for several reasons, will replace Disqus. This means that, sadly, you will not be able to use your Disqus account to comment here anymore.
As for similarity to Vivaldi - yes, we used the same open-source project as the base for this feature and we both use NodeBB for our community board/forums

@amatczak, no problem with the disqus-account, d. is a chatterbox anyway, so it doesn't matter. pure info question.
Blog seems a bit more accessible than the forum, at least so far.
Disadvantage now: the comment function (layout options) in the blog is now somewhat badly solved. Therefore less readable than before.
here, too, a "vivaldi-orientation" could be worthwhile:
The link blog-forum exists, the comment function in the blog is still well solved (colors, text highlighting, tree view, screenshot, etc.). This would make it a bit easier to read. -

Tree view, text editing tools before posting, notifications when somebody replies to your comment (red circle in front of user name, maybe upvoting too), screenshots attachments, longer period for post editing, increase text size. Return these things in the blog's comments.

And regarding the forum, I can't find a way to edit my profile: I can't change password or email for example.

@andrew84 You can change both email and password on Opera Auth page. Forums is not storing any passwords.

Yes, the separation from edit (profil-)settings of forum and account is confusing, not really recognizable, badly done overall.
If logged in, one can see the settings button above right. And it clearly suggests that you can edit mail and password there. But that's not possible. You have to change to the account for that. But what you have to know again, because there is nothing recognizable, corresponding buttons, which would help further, are missing.
Opera, this is very much in need of revision! This all(!) can be designed much better!And: please add design & editing options to the blog comments. In the present form this is a bit crap (sorry)! boring, unnecessarily hard to read.

Would be cool if email notifications for a thread made use of in-reply-to and reference headers etc. so that the messages were grouped together as a thread in my email client (Thunderbird).
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Mail.thread_without_re
I can turn off strict threading to group by subject, but since comment subject don't start with "re:", that doesn't work. Turning on thread_without_re seems to help though, but I'd rather keep Thunderbird at the defaults of strict threading.
This is/was a wish for regular threads on the forum too. It's just with blog posts being such high volume, it's seems more necessary now. But, probably something NodeBB has to support.
