@chuchkyschild I agree. The extension side bar needs to be gotten rid of.

a merge would be fantastic. with the option to add web panels and extensions that would be a well done implemented and functional "all in one sidebar". But as long the merge is not gonna happen soon, i would like to be able to keep the extension side bar. an option to hide it is already existent. so it's up to the user wether to display and use it or not.
You think you know, but you have no idea.

A dev said few months ago that they have the issue on table...
+100 for merge!
(and release web panels for common use!)

@rudrick i am sure, this is something being considered. seeing how elements from concept browser neon have been integrated, merging sidebars and/or adding additional options such as move it to main bar, have it as drop down menue etc, i assume, are being considered as well.

It probably comes down to... agreement they have with FB, VK etc - as Opera have been heavily pushing monetization across clients. The messengers have exclusive access to Reborn sidebar as well as web panel.
But users want to be able to use addons on sidebar as well as web panels without restrictions.

@rudrick yes! totally agreeing on web panels for common use! was just trying to get the updated version from github, but it says it couldn't load it properly due to manifest missing?
i use vivaldi as well and i really like the web panel feature there (somehow FBmessenger+whatsapp web panels are not functioning properly there for me), it is a neat and functional addition for sidebar using and i would love to see that in opera browser in the (hopefully near) future ^_^You think you know, but you have no idea.

The concept that a browser can have two sidebars is ridiculous. Come on Opera. You can do better. Lay off the Virtual Reality nonsense and get back to basics.

agree one sidebar just with the icons to open the following full pages, and remove them and developer from the O dropdown menu. hate the way vavaldi has history setup. a side panel instead of a page. opera can learn from vavaldi how downloads are handled. if you have vavaldi set to ask where to save when you click to download an item vavaldi opens a nice looking download panel.

@acidinmyfridge Yes, vivaldi's webpanel feature is cool.
And your'e not the only one who cant use messenger within a webpanel in vivaldi, it's a common glitch -

@chuchkyschild you can install opera add-ons, just change the file from .nex to .crx and load/drop add-on in dev mod.

and i tried installing chrono download manager. it installs without any issues for me.

Hmm, actually, FF is resolving some issues in relation as we speak (so that another set of extensions not needed for splitted / paneled side). Vivaldi sorted those long ago (structurally O and V differ).
If Opera doesn't want to combine the bars then make the old bar "modern" too. Place it on the right side? With auto-hover onn/off? Or hover in and out from Reborn sidebar? All I know that the ads are there~ but perhaps a merge is possible.
