Pinterest Not Loading at all, only few pins then stops

I'm also experiencing this issue. Pinterest isn't loading properly in Opera GX after a recent update.
Even in private mode, I now get a white screen.
Chrome works perfectly fine.
Console error: Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token _client.ru.
What I've tried:
Clearing cache, cookies, localStorage, IndexedDB
Disabling GX Control, VPN, extensions
Resetting settings and reinstalling the browser
Running with a clean profile
Nothing helped. This seems to be a browser-side issue, as it started happening around February 20 for many users. Let's bring more attention to this so the developers can fix it.

One workaround that currently works for me is to press ctrl+shift+I then in the top left corner of the menu that pops up there are two buttons, the one on the right changes it to how it to mobile format, if you press that then refresh it should work okay.
You can either continue on or change back to regular view by pressing it again (may require another refresh). Its a pain and requires re doing whenever you refresh or leave the site but its a temp fix for now

Pinterest is currently broken on Opera GX because the browser misidentifies itself and Pinterest serves incompatible scripts. The easiest fix is to install a user‑agent switcher extension and make Opera GX pretend to be ChromeOS. I recommend this one:
https://addons.opera.com/en-gb/extensions/details/user-agent-switcher-8/
Set the user agent to:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS x86_64 10066.0.0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/143.0.0.0 Safari/537.36
After switching, Pinterest will load normally again. -

@leocg not 100% sure but the client js file does not recognise opera gx's user agent and refuses to redirect

@CommunicationSad9761 I cant find that exact user agent but will any other ChromeOS be okay?

@leocg im not 100% sure how but the client js does not want to redirect with opera gx's default agent and @JessusChrist44 you can paste it in at the bottom from my post

@CommunicationSad9761 so glad to hear an actual explanation as to what is causing this. i also tried your suggested solution but unfortunately it isnt working for me with any configuration including the one you noted here. i think perhaps it could be because when running an agressive test, the ua is still showing as opera regardless of anything i do.
do you reckon this is the sort of issue that is easily patched or might we be waiting a while for a fix from opera? -
