          @Choki What do you mean by pin sidebar? At least on Windows, you can just enable or disable it.

            In Opera, goto the URL opera://about and take note of the "profile" path. Then, close Opera.

            Use a JSON file editor to edit the "Preferences" file in the profile folder. In the file, delete the "sidebar" node under the root/ui/browser node.

            That should reset things with the sidebar so that you can recustomize them where things hopefully work properly.

                  @Choki Ah, pin the messenger panel, not the sidebar.

                  What happens when you click on it?

                      I tested in Opera Stable and Opera Developer on Linux Mint XFCE and pinning doesn't work there either. When left-clicking on the pin icon or anywhere on the bar the icon is on, the cursor icon turns to a hand that grabs. In other words, it's as if the icon isn't even there as far as clicking goes. Left-clicking and holding on the bar and dragging is like dragging the title bar to unmaximize the window and move it around.
