@leocg said in Allow disabling of default search engine hotkeys:
the contracts
I think this is a dead-end situation: Amazon, Bing, Yahoo, etc. pay Opera to be included in this feature. As long as there are B2B contracts between these companies, this situation will not change. This is the same situation as the websites (Amazon, etc.) shown on the Quick Access page when you install Opera.

The fact that there are other solutions for this, but the dev team just completely refused to implement a fix, is just crazy.
I understand these bla bla bla companies pay opera to add these, but removing this "feature" doesn't mean removing those search engines completely.
I also don't know why the mod "leocg" keeps on insisting that "It's not a bug" and "It's a suggestion and the devs may or may not accept" when it's so obvious to absolutely everyone and is without a doubt the dumbest thing we've ever seen and literally is in disbelief that this "feature" is in such a well made browser(imo). -

@TheInfamousTony It's not a bug because it's working exactly how it was designed to work

This Page ist titled: "Suggestions and feature requests"
and to reiterate: everyone hates that feature and we want it optional or a way to disable it. That's all. InfamousTony never said it's a bug. -

@leocg he just said you keep on insisting that "it's not a bug", which you immediately did again. we get it. it's not a bug. nobody cares, that is not the point of this whole thread. it's like you're the guy who wrote this function.
i switched to other browsers because of this thread. it just so happens that i wrote in this thread a year ago and still get notifications if someone writes. and you are always answering and ignoring the key message of everyone: we want that stupid feature removed or a way to disable it. -

@GerritDamen A lot of people wanting this option doesn't change the fact that it's not a bug, but a request.

@leocg This site is about feature requests as mentioned before. I never said it's a bug. Please stop saying it's not a bug, it's making me angry. I reiterate: It is not a bug. It's a feature request. Like you said, many people want this so please, please with sugar on top, shut up talking about bugs. The only person talking about bugs is you.

@GerritDamen I only mentioned the fact that this is not a discussion about a bug because the subject was brought to the surface. If it doesn't happen,, I won't have why come here and talk about that.

@leocg What exactly are you doing here? This thread is about a feature request.

Nakina last edited by@GerritDamen Being the one who made this thread and also still getting notifications despite moving to a different browser at this point, I get your sentiment. However, I don't think attacking a moderator is ever going to result in getting what we want. They're not the ones to get mad at, they're just a volunteer. The only way anything is going to change is if more people move away from this browser as a result of this "feature". I've never seen another browser that doesn't let me turn off these stupid shortcuts.

Is there a fix so yet? I'm a music major so I'm constantly searching key signatures and this "feature" is the most annoying shit ever. At the very least, an option to disable this would be extremely helpful.

@chromeskeli There's no change in this area. Opera still purposely restricts modifications of the default search engines.
