@npisarek Yes, but the Opera Neon browsing experience is completely different and very enjoyable. The Opera forum that is different in participation is Opera Neon, I think you could support it because it is a product that has been very new in the media and completely different from other browsers.
Thank you very much for the experience provided through the concept

Keep up the good work with the browsers, Opera!
I use Opera on desktop and Opera Touch on mobile. I have tried Brave (on both desktop and mobile), Vivaldi (on desktop only), Chrome (on both desktop and mobile), Safari (on mobile only), Firefox (on both desktop and mobile) and Palemoon (on desktop only) browsers, and I still find Opera to be my favorite most days on both desktop and mobile!

Opera for PC and Touch on iOS. What I really miss is support for profiles in desktop Opera! Please.

Not sure, but Opera's WorkSpaces seems their version for Profiles.

There are a couple of options to run Multi profiles.
Ask if need.

@zalex108: Thank you. I am only using Beta channel so I guess I still don't have access to workspaces. What I expect is to be able to switch between the two profiles (workspaces if that's what you call it) and have completely different set of cookies (like one site https://outlook.com where I am logged using two different identities in the two different profiles), different set of favorites, etc. Is that what workspaces support?
If not, then I would ask you to add support for proper profiles (like Chrome, the new Edge, etc.). I know you can do it by manually by cloning "C:\Users{username}\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Next" and using --user-data-dir program argument. I hope we both agree that this is not the right way of doing it (not very user friendly).

No,
But after many years this seems - to me - that is the proposed alternative.If not, then I would ask you to add support for proper profiles (like Chrome, the new Edge, etc.). I know you can do it by manually by cloning "C:\Users{username}\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Next" and using --user-data-dir program argument.

Currently it's the only way we have.
Despite asking for Profile support, - which I don't know why is not implemented -, is the workaround to achieve it.

Could you please, PLEASE fix chat popups (Messenger, WhatsApp etc. in the sidebar), so that they won't autoclose while typing messages? It REALLY is irritating and I've been asking fot the fix since November. Thank's in advance.

Are any plans to remove proxy mode on Opera Mini or upgrading servers to the recent version of rendering engine?

@almas1997 Not possible if you use any compression at all to remove the proxy, I can't answer the rest of that.

@almas1997 In current version of Opera Mini, at least for Android, you can disable data savings and, therefore, stop using Opera Mini servers.

Can you please add a feature (which I havent seen in any browser yet) to open independent tab-less windows? The feature is already built inside the browsers, but for some reason, users are not allowed to use it. Some websites can use it though.

Improvement #1: Can you add mouse gesture, scroll to top of the page, ... using scroll to the top of the page by clicking the active tab it's not always useful especially when I'm coming from another window.
