After Twitter/X said they would change how the block function works, 100K people joined Bluesky. It is worth adding Bluesky to the sidebar, similar to how the Twitter/X sidebar works.

As an alternative for now, note that you can enable the "Custom user sites for browser sidebar" flag at the URL opera://flags/#sidebar-site-panel, restart Opera, click the 3 dots at the bottom of the sidebar, scroll down to "Custom Site Panels" and add the URL for the web app you want (https://bsky.app/ for example).

You can't customize the icon for it in the sidebar and you can change its position, but it's something for now.

If you have any trouble logging in to the site in the sidebar, you can log in via a regular tab first and then reload the sidebar.

+1 to this request, with 20M users and growing, Bluesky would be a nice sidebar panel to have... (and thanks @burnout426 for the alternative!)

Request demand. I quit X, no intention of coming back. I want Bluesky on the left side please.

Not sure why we don't have support for Bluesky yet have support for other questionable platforms.

Opera Developer has Bluesky by default now. Maybe the support will eventually trickle down to Opera GX.
