      So, I decided to use synchronization between Opera on the phone and Opera on the PC
      I logged in on both devices, went to "sync" on the phone -> pairing -> scan qr -> codes match -> "What do you want to do next?" -> synchronize data
      clicking on this button throws me into opera://settings/syncSetup where I am asked to enter a passphrase
      I don't remember using it (although I remember my trepidation when I first saw such a thing as tabs)
      "okay -- I'll just reset it"
      I click on the link "reset sync settings" which takes me to https://www.sync.opera.com
      I reset them
      and I am told that "You have no sync data stored."
      great!
      but both the mobile and desktop versions continue to require a passphrase

      what did I do wrong and what do I need to do to be able to use sync?

        @ijtsuken Did you go to opera://settings/syncSetup and changed/disabled the passphrase?
