@leocg I dont use any extensions outside of what is delivered with default installation, as for settings, the only thing I changed was the flag you suggested.
As mentioned before, version 68 runs fine.
I installed the most recent version on a new PC, but its not working there neither.
Is there a list of changed settings or new settings introduced with version 71?

@leocg I dont really understand why it was working in private in my last try, I cant find any relation as to why it doesnt any more.
The only consistent way I found to make it work is using an older version of Opera GX.

@jkels So it's no longer working in a private window?

@leocg No, its not working anymore in private.
As a sidenote: the patch I just recieved didnt help nor harm.

I just deleted ..\AppData\Roaming\Opera GX Stable, though it didnt make it work either.

It may be related to SameSite feature which came with recent chromium (link). It can break logins to pages where login state is based on cross-site cookies.

You can try to disable opera://flags/#same-site-by-default-cookies and see if it helps.

Solved on my end.
@leocg @Carpra @mgyahu @wuvusr @jnovance @neroshad @Rizzelph @dominielus
found the culprit after using developer tools

opera://flags/#same-site-by-default-cookies
V71: Default [E]
V68: Default [D]
-> Disabling it in V71 allows login again.

(I notified Sony to update their cookie settings as mentioned in the screenshot)

@jkels Thanks!!! I spent almost an hour trying different solutions and none of them worked until I did as you said. Now it works!

I can't understand why, if it's a feature that appears on Chrome too, we couldn't login through Opera but we do through Chrome.

@dahotfunk Different default setting, it was changed during one of the Opera updates (I think the new settings is "safer" by beeing more restrictive)

Hey everyone!
I'm having trouble when logging into my PS account in PlayStation Store (https://store.playstation.com/en-us/home/games) using Opera GX and Opera for Mobile. When I click "Sign in" I am normally redirected to the "sign-in page" (https://my.account.sony.com/central/signin/) full link: (https://my.account.sony.com/central/signin/?response_type=code&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fstore.playstation.com%2Fen-us%2Fhome%2Fgames%3Fstate%3Dreturning%26state%3Dreturning%26cid%3D3cc04d18-efc1-489f-b4ec-46ea087689a8%26cid%3D004eb98d-be0c-4d46-84cc-3b193ed4b357&client_id=f6c7057b-f688-4744-91c0-8179592371d2&scope=kamaji%3Acommerce_native%2Ckamaji%3Acommerce_container%2Ckamaji%3Alists&state=returning&request_locale=en_US&service_entity=urn%3Aservice-entity%3Apsn&hidePageElements=SENLogo&disableLinks=SENLink&ui=pr&cid=33767ec0-d00f-4603-bf2d-9cd01952d2ea&error=login_required&error_code=4165&no_captcha=true#/signin/ca?entry=ca), I put my email and password normally but then, when redirected again to the store, nothing happens! I've tried to clean cookies, disable ad-blocker, tracker blocker and it keeps not working. (It's weird because I've tried to download Opera Mini and Opera Touch and for them, it works (Any clues?)) Can someone help me?

@edyp87 Thanks, it worked! But I just wanted to know if something else is modified if I disable this (if it has any "consequences", security issue?). But anyway, thanks again!

@jkels Thanks! Let's hope it becomes more "compatible" with all sites in future versions

@jkels I'm sorry but I don't understand what I should do to get the coockies changed.
Could you make a step list or something to know how I can fix this error? What commands should I launch on the console? Thank you very much.

@die89 Copy and Paste "opera://flags/#same-site-by-default-cookies" (without the ") into Opera GX adress bar, it will open a configuration tool and highlight a setting "SameSite by default cookies".
This should currently be "Default [E]", change it to "Disabled" and restart Opera GX.
