      @tempyst Hi again!
      So what I've found is that the Twitch integration is technically an extention.
      You are, however, not able to install it like a normal extention.
      If you would just copy the extentions folder into the "Extentions" folder, some thing would recognize it and just delete it after starting OperaGx.
      Plus you would have to edit the "Preferences" file to actually show the extention in the sidebar.

      You can, however, use the "Developer Mode" to import extentions from their folder!
      I quickly created a github repository so everyone can download the folder of the Twitch extention!

      I hope that this works for you!
      : D

          @knopfi This actually works. I had this problem for months. Yo're the first person to gave a real solution, even when the Opera staff just ignore the issue.

                      @knopfi This was Awesome - but on Mac I get an error with the background.html. Do you have any idea on how to get around that?

                      Opera version Version:94.0.4606.54 (arm64)

                        @knopfi Got this error on Mac Opera 😞

                        Manifest version 2 is deprecated, and support will be removed in 2023. See https://developer.chrome.com/blog/mv2-transition/ for more details.

                          @greensworlddk Huh, that's weird. It seems to have to do with manifest v2 being phased out.
                          It seems like the Twitch integration has been updated. I'm gonna update it on Github asap.
                          Manifest v2 extentions won't be supported in the future (I think June 2023), but the extention will 100% be updated to manifest v3 before that happens.
                          Thanks for writing the reply tho!

                                  are you sure that you did everything correctly?
                                  Check the folder locations again.

                                  Other than that I honestly don't know what could fix it.
                                  Opera doesn't seem to care about it's users, I've reported this issue a loooong time ago.
                                  That's also why I switched to firefox a loooong time ago. (I just use an extention called "Twitch Live")

                                    @knopfi Yes I followed the steps on the github.
                                    Meanwhile I installed the Twitch Live Extension to watch who is online and playing.
                                    Thank you very much anaway 🙂

                                      Maybe some day Opera will fix it, but who knows.

                                        Same for me, it won't appear in the extensions section.

                                          I just updated the repository to the newest version.
                                          You can see if it works now :))
