help - Addicted to GX and now torn away from it:
I realize you have probably heard this many times in other threads, but another one is worth it.
Recently, I switched to Opera GX for mostly work actually.IT has made my days so much better - I love it.
I use Ubuntu Linux at home, and was looking for a workaround(wine is not working for me sadly)I finally went with Opera one, but I am missing so many of the features I might either switch back to windows(yes just for this briowser), Or I will have to go back to Brave or Chrome or whatever.
Are there any plans for this? Is there any way for me to manually combine the assets from the two to make it work? I am desperate. Please help! I may-have to just wipe my PC or dual boot. I am willing to pay money for this. Please tell me you have plans for this. You have a very unique special browser in GX and one is not not there for me.

Guys Take The Hint.......They do not care!!! Move on to another browser and forget this thing even existed!!! Any company that cared (or was smart) would have made the browser a long time ago. You think that they havent seen this? They probably dont even bother to look at this no more because they know the exact crap that is written on here by everyone that visits at different times. Im probably not the first person to tell people in this post to say forget them and their browser and I probably wont be the last. I made my account here just to complain and grumble like all of you and now im going to delete the account because its a big fat waste of time and grovelling like a bunch of simps telling them how much u love this floozey of a browser by a company that has made it more than clear that they do not care is beyond ridiculous!

Hello, I'm also interested in this Opera GX on Linux topic. I've seriously considered starting to use a Linux distribution called Nobara, but on Windows, I've already become too accustomed to Opera GX and I don't think I can use any other browser.
I hope that in the future they develop an installer or put the app in some repository for download on Linux, but until then, I think I found an option.
Researching around, I found out that Opera GX is available for download through the Epic Games Store, and I'm not sure if anyone has tried it yet, but maybe someone can use Lutris or Heroic Games Launcher to access the Epic Games Store and from there to Opera GX.
If anyone has already tried it or has the possibility to do so, please tell us how it went to see if it works.

@gersonzao People who use linux are much more interesting in using new and less known apps like OperaGX.
People who use windows will default to chrome and maybe edge, and rarely Try newer product lines.
Opera browser is in the AUR, I can't imagine it would be hard to port OperaGX to linux.
AI tools would make the transition easier and thus have a greater ROI

People who are likely to be users and advocates of Opera GX will likely switch to Linux.
People who use Linux are more likely to use alternative browsers like OperaGX.
Opera browser is already on the AUR. I don't know how different OperaGX is, but it can't be that hard to transition.
More and More gamers are moving to Linux at an accelerated rate.

To the Noble Lords and Ladies of Opera
In the realm of digital dominion, where browsers weave the intricate tapestries of our online adventures, we beseech thee to heed our fervent call. We, the valiant denizens of Linux, stalwart guardians of the open-source kingdom, do implore thee to grant us the coveted Opera GX, a jewel coveted by many a brave soul within our realm.
As the winds of change whisper through the technological landscape, let not our Linux brethren languish in the shadows of obscurity. Nay, let them bask in the radiant glow of Opera GX, a beacon of innovation and prowess.
Should thee choose to defy our entreaties, know this: we shall muster our forces, a legion of righteous indignation, to storm the gates of thy digital fortress. Our code shall be our swords, our algorithms our shields, and together, we shall lay siege to the bastions of indifference until victory is ours.
Yet, let it not come to this, esteemed lords and ladies. For in unity lies strength, and in cooperation, greatness is forged. Hearken unto our plea, and let Opera GX flourish upon the fertile soil of Linux.
With unwavering resolve and hopeful hearts, we await thy response.
Yours faithfully,
[szx] -

Count me in for Opera GX on Linux. I switch between Windows and Linux on a regular basis and the absence of a Linux version seriously prevents me from using it full-time.
