        The closest you'll get to a direct contact is by reporting a bug here https://opera.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/9

                The closest I've been on email is the Opera Privacy Team via

                privacy@opera.atlassian.net

                now Opera uses a form for these requests.

                I asked how to delete a user account on the forum. Answer was:

                "To delete your Forums account, you need to delete your Opera Account."

                My reply was:

                "That is not an acceptable solution. The forum is a stand-alone service. A user must be able to delete a social forum profile and/or content, without it affecting the main Opera Account."

                Since Opera as a Norwegian company did respond further, I have lodged a case and started dialogue with The Consumer Authority of Norway and The Norwegian Data Protection Authority (DPA) on failure to comply with GDPR.

                  @vegelund You use your Opera account to access the forum.

                    I know, so do many large services.

                    Opera must still have an option for deleting a forum/community profile and related activity, such as on answers.microsoft.com

                    Imagine if Dropbox said: To remove your dropboxforum.com profile, you need to delete your Dropbox account?

                      Sorry, I had misunderstood your answer from: https://forums.opera.com/post/316675

                      It wasn't my day yesterday!

                        Hello, since I don't use any other Opera services, I only use Opera as a browser, I have now deleted the Opera account because it doesn't make sense to continue the problem with my first thread request:
                        https://forums.opera.com/post/316487 to the forum with this smiley icon in the top right corner of the desktop window!
                        I can still use Opera to browse. That's enough for me!
