<![CDATA[[Solved]Return extention sidebar or rework the main one]]>So, you new Opera 66 has a "feature" added. That removes the old extension secondary sidebat, and instead puts your extentions to the main sidebar.

This probably sounded soooo so good to your designers, right?
Wrong.

I have bookmarks open 100% of the time on my sidebar. Before, I had this small little secondary bar, and it was perfect.
Now?
If I want to have them constantly open, I have to use the main one. Only, Oh joy! It takes up way mode screen space for absolutely Nothing.

  1. It's minimum width is locked for some reason, and it's too wide. I can't make it more narrow.
  2. It takes up the entire vertical screen space when pinned. This means less space for tabs and everything else - all of this gets shifted to the right.
  3. if it's not pinned, it covers over UI elements.

Frankly, this change is absolute garbage. Whoever designed this was probably proud of themselves. Well, you shouldn't be. You've made it Way worse.

And the best thing? I can't even roll back to older version of opera, because it auto-updates! If I turn off auro-updates, it stops loading certain websited like twitch or gmail.
This is another great feature! Just screw those users who disable autoupdates - they souldn't be able to use browser if they do so!

TLDR:

  1. Return the old secondary sidebar option that doesn't take up the entire height of the screen.
  2. Make your "new feature" adjustable. It's Garbage.
