@tonys2002 don't think instagram was integrated in sidebar then, but you can use Web Panel addon, idk if there's a specific sidebar for instagram add-on for Opera, just check the Opera add-ons for that.
You think you know, but you have no idea.

@acidinmyfridge You can simulate the same workflow in Vivaldi (or Opera) if you use the address or search field (Ctrl+L or F8 to focus the address field or Ctrl+E for the search field) and press Alt+Enter to open your search in a new tab, and when you're done Ctrl+W will close the tab and return to the one you were on previously as long as you have that set in the settings (When closing a Tab... Activate the last active tab). Also, the Quick Commands window that opens when you press F2 can search the open tabs and do other stuff like create notes or quick math operations and can be configured to always open the result in a new tab too (or used Shift+Enter) (but it lacks search suggestions so it depends on your needs).

@rafaelluik Not really. It's similar but opens all search results in a new tab. That's not what i want.
I've been using Vivaldi for years and i certainly do Love several of its features, but if you have ever used instant search then you know how convenient it is that it stays in the same window, shows you search results within the same window. That's the whole selling point for me personally.You think you know, but you have no idea.

Still no chance to bring back instant search or at least let us have it in flags so it's up to us wether we enable it or not? I assume not as it seems.
In August i decided to not use Opera anymore due to not providing the excellent instant search anymore.
I resorted to use the ueli app, a neat and terrific keystroke launcher, and settled for brave browser as my main browser.
I wish Opera would bring instant search back. It made Opera truly superiour to other browsers.
You think you know, but you have no idea.

I really want to thank you for this tip.
Mouse gestures and Instant Search were my main reasons of using opera and they just removed one of them in 68.I've been using Opera67 just for the sake of Instant Search. I even deleted opera_autoupdater to prevent upgrades but somehow it managed to upgrade itself yesterday.
Trufflepiggy is not good as instant search right now, but devs assured me they are working on it.
I want to thank you sincerely. -

@alexmercer97 i resorted to use ueli app and brave browser.
And i am very pleased with both. Ueli is truly great, have grown highly fond of it.
Can only recommend.You think you know, but you have no idea.

@acidinmyfridge i downloaded ueli app, it uses alt+space shortcut just like instant search, but only searches apps in my computer which is not necessary for me. I'm already using voidtools' "everything" app for that purpose.
but still, thank you. -

@alexmercer97 No it does not only search apps and files. You can set a web search too (or in fact many other searches, any you want: imdb, youtube, wiki etc).
I use it for websearch all the time, it is so so convenient.You think you know, but you have no idea.
