        @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.

                @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.

                        found this thread after many frustrating minutes of attempting to search for a query related to crystallography. congrats to Opera for making my decision to finally switch to Brave browser that much easier
