Thank you, Opera for ruining my day. Your latest update destroyed my browser. My background wouldn't work. The interface was too large. Normally I would adjust it through the DPI settings in the shortcut but even that wouldn't work. Lost my bookmarks. Went to system restore only to find that was disabled on my system for some reason. I always keep it enabled. I had to resort to digging through an image backup of my system. I uninstalled the latest crap and copied the Opera folder from my backup to the Programs Folder. Copied the Opera Stable folder over to apps/roaming. And that's how I got it back. I found out how to disable the updates too. I was going to switch to OperGX but I have never seen so much bloat embedded into a browser before. How can this thing speed up your games with so much garbage running in the background? How do you get rid of that OperaGX Corner screen altogether?

@aam2018 Click on the Easy Setup button and enable GX Corner on Sidebar.

Was looking through my list of installed custom backgrounds and thought it would be super helpful for there to be a way for the installed backgrounds to be shown in list or grid view instead of clicking a next arrow to look through them. It takes a lot of time to click through each.
If the window showed similar to how the custom browser colors did it would be perfect.
Thanks!

I just recently got opera GX, and it just feel a little, intrusive, and bland. yes, a lot of it is nice and streamlined, but some aspects of it, aren't exactly user friendly. take mods for example, there are a Ton of them, but it isn't very easy to make your own. it would be Much easier if it was possible to simply upload the keyboard sound you want, from your computer's storage. and, dare I say, the addons page is downright Awful! it just crams a ton of useless garbage into one space, not caring about the interface. I will say, for someone like me, who isn't super Social, opera seems a bit pointless. i like the customization, but my true creativity is dampened by the complexity of the browser. I will say, I like the concept, but, in practice, it's impractical.

Hey, I don't know why but my opera gx doesn't work properly. This photo will show you what I mean. It's supposed to have different colors but it's like this. You need to fix this.

@theannoyed1 Did you try disabling Force Dark Pages as said?

It would be nice if you update this topic as the Opera GX is updated. The topic updates in 2-3 Opera GX updates, sometimes even more.

I've been using gx for a while and the experience is so far enjoyable. I do insist on feature of grouping tabs since I have tons of them open especially when I'm doing some research. It is often inconvenient to find certain tabs related to a task as I multitask on certain occasion. Not only it boosts productivity, it can shred some time so that rest of the day could be spent with the family n friends.

Hoping the feature would pop up to improve the web experience,

Just a side note:
If this is a platform for Gamers why is there so much politics in the news section. Throw that crap out and lets fill it with gaming news. You have exactly what I am an trying to avoid in my daily life front and center. If I want the news it will certainly not be from the propaganda machine.
How do I change my temperature in the widget to Fahrenheit? I am not looking to make conversion in my head. I will say I do love the experience I have had thus far other than these 2 issues.

I would like other Dark options like solid black as a theme. Remember there are visually impared gamers. So the more color options the better!

There are occasional sync issues. I think you should solve that.

I would like spotify to have more features such as search in a playlist, which is not showing up for me, as well as ability to change the order of songs in a playlist and any other missing features. If they are disabled due to API restrictions then it's fine

@yuzer1mk The features should be the same of the web version.

Congrats for the browser!
I'd appreciate if the sync for my user would also carry extensions forward to the new browser instance.

Fix the microphone problem; I can't talk with the microphone, and it has all the correct settings and is allowed for the site.

Just a few moments ago, an ad sponsored by Opera GX saying "try mr. beast theme" popped up in the corner of my desktop. I dont appreciate the browser stepping out of its' line to advertise its' theme selection. I absolutely hate the fact that despite having the browser closed, the notification overlay popped up. It feels malicious.

I have uninstalled the browser since then. I don't need advertisements popping up while I work. Imagine if every software did that?

Stay within the line of reasonable expectations of what your browser can and cannot do.

Thanks.

@nick205 Seems to be a notification, you should be able to disable it.
