Twitch.tv issues with Opera?

Problem:
I use Twitch a lot and have been logged in for a while, but a few days ago I stopped earning points from watching channels. It was at least happening on version 98.0.4759.6 Today, on the latest stable version 98.0.4759.15, I tried logging out and back in, but Twitch wouldn't let me log in again, just displaying:

"Your browser is not currently supported. Please use a recommended browser or learn more here."

It is worth noting that I can also not currently get the "Tell us how you want your cookies"-banner on the site to disappear. Either by saving changes or accepting all cookies, it persists. The site otherwise works: I can view streams, etc.

My settings:

• I have tried deleting all site data related to Twitch.tv, disabled all addons (with related tabs closed), and restarted Opera, but the problem persists.
• I disallow 3rd party cookies in incognito, but not in regular mode.
• Most privacy consent and security settings are off, except "Protect me from malicious sites".
• I delete cookies and site data on exit, but [*.]twitch.tv is on my whitelist.
• It is worth noting that even though Opera/Chromium is not officially supported, I had no issues with both the cookie banner or logging in on Vivaldi, which is also not intrinsically supported.

No one replying whether it's working or not for them, but I submitted a bug report ref. BS-54561. Twitch is a big streaming site. I don't know the specifics of what causes it, but I would assume it's JavaScript-related by the nature of it. Unless it's only happening for me.

@nordlys Try the following:

– Go to twitch.tv site
– Click on lock icon
– Go to cookies
– Delete all twitch cookies
– Refresh site.
– Do Not Go to twitch extension, just refresh twitch.tv site
– Accept cookies
– login on twitch.tv - it will pass
– go to extension and login too - it will pass

@leocg Doesn't work here. Same error.

Did it work for you? Are you on 98.0.4759.15 on Win10?

@nordlys Never tested it myself, but it seems to have worked for some people.

I saw this post and disable opera://browserjs/, the Twitch issues solved. Though you need to disable this everytime when you reopen browser.

@editorkos Thanks! (And also to the original poster.) That works. Didn't find that thread when searching the forums.

Too bad I've lost all my site settings now that I messed around with it.

@leocg The only way that worked was your method, thank you very much (I tried everything, even uninstalling and it didn't work)
