<![CDATA[Opera Developer 60 annoyances]]>Why is Opera Developer 60 constantly trying to load a lot of stuff from UDP ports?

Why does it try to load many sites whenever I pull down a bookmarks folder?

Why does it want to load a lot of Google stuff when it first opens?

That is really annoying. There is no way an ad-blocker can block things when the browser is just opening, so I am having to use my outbound firewall to stop it. That should not be necessary.

How do I stop that attempt to get thumbnails? I do not want them. I have already locked the Favicons file in the profile to stop saving of favicons.

These connections are going to some sites that I have bookmarked, and to some Google-owned sites, some bookmarked and some not. It did not happen quite as fast this time, but still happens sometimes.

Also, to where are the connections being made?

It calls itself Opera Developer.app and it is version 60.0.3254.0. I keep getting all these attempts at communication via UDP. Since web pages are sent through TCP, what is going on with the UDP attempts?

I seem to have stopped it from trying to load things when it first opens, but it still attempts to load unwanted sites when I pull down the bookmarks menu and again when opening a folder there. Most of that junk with pulling down the menu is from Google sites: Google itself, google-analytics, googletagmanager, and doubleclick (which I certainly do not want).
