@kmielczarczyk Sorry, I didn't get it.
The checkboxes in the sidebar setup are only for show/hide icons on the sidebar (not for enabling features).
In case of CryptoWallet it enables the feature.
If I click the checkbox, the feature will be enabled in Settings.
CryptoWallet should work the same way as MyFlow does.

*If quick access, then it should be as toggle button in EasySetup, not in the sidebar setup

Edit: MyFlow used to be in EasySetup. I don't know why it was removed,
Special features section can be also in EasySetup and contain such toggle buttons as MyFlow, CryptoWallet, Pinboards, EasyFiles.
And one more thing is that removing reccent wallpapers from EasySetup was a bad idea, in my opinion.

@andrew84 btw, EasyFiles (which is currently broken in Dev and crashes) is hard to find/notice in overall(and it also enabled by default). As was mentioned earlier, EasyFiles should have a separate section in Settings.

Hello Opera developers, Thank you for the wonderful Opera browser, but I would like to know, I live in Tajikistan in Central Asia and I lost VPN in Opera as I found out Opera was removed for Russia, but why I don't have VPN in Tajikistan in Central Asia.

@firuz-u7 Usually it's removed when the service is being blocked on the region.

Hi. Can you please tell me how to force discards background tabs without closing it?
If you wait for automatic unloading from memory, it's too long. The Flickr site can consume all the RAM (16 gigabytes) in a matter of seconds by opening 5-7 tabs.
Some browsers have this feature by default and even have a hotkey.

I know there is "opera://discards/", but it is too inconvenient for constant everyday use. I would like the tab to discard at the click of a button.

I totally agree! Vivaldi does this very nicely, I know.

@thortik: I use the "Tiny supender" chrome extension in "native mode" and also the "Sloth" extension, to further avoid reloading tabs at startup.

Hey, those are a couple of very nifty extensions ... thanks for the good tip!

I am just curious ... what do you think is most important about updating quickly? Security concerns -OR- something else?

Hello there! Could the developers add a feature to automatically sync all extensions to Opera, like Chrome does?

Sorry, but the fast tab tooltips are hideously annoying, yet there's no obvious way to disable the damned things

@purplet It's not obvious, but goto the URL opera://flags/#fast-tab-tooltip, disable the flag, and restart Opera.

Whenever you can't find a setting for something, you can goto the URL opera:/flags to see if there's at least a flag for it. No guarantee that if there's a flag for something, the flag will stay there forever though.

Thanks for that. I really wish these things were more obvious.

@drakostaarn It is useless to ask them about it. I already wrote to them about this many times, and not only me, always ignoring from the developers. Opera does not find this feature useful. The only browser where there is still no extension synchronization, despite the fact that it has been on the Chrome engine for several years.

which version is the stable one ?
since the last update ( 81.0.4196.31 / ubuntu 20.04 ) :

• many video are no longer playing ( e.g. twitter )

• the "copy image" feature is no longer by reference when possible ( this also happened to firefox and chrome recently, so I guess it may come from a side library, at least on linux ). So I can no longer post, or even save as draft, my daily newsletter ( rich in web images ).

• the ultra-annoying bug ( present in previous version ) that makes Opera window popup on mouse flyover is still there. With 2 windows, this can even leads to a war between the 2 windows.
