      Can you guys like make the touchbar for mac useful. Like for example youtube, instead of it just changing tabs maybe yall could like make it a slider like the one in safari. That slider is like the only reason i use safari lmfao but i think operas really nice so idk.

        Opera user since Opera existed on one 3,5" diskette here. I would like to request a feature to divide workspaces so that we are possible to use multiple log-ins. Would this be feasible?

        Please keep up the good work!

          @pschirki I'm a bit retarded. Would you mind share your views in more understandable details?

          • Do you mean log-ins as profiles?
          • Do you mean log-ins as Opera accounts?
          • Do you mean log-in to, ekhm..., to what?
          • Do you mean asking for "multiple log.ins":
            1st workspace -> 1st profile = 1st account
            2nd workspace -> 2nd profile = 2nd account
            3rd workspace -> 3rd profile = 3nd account
            ...
            or
            1st workspace -> 1st profile = 1st account
            2nd workspace -> 1st profile = 2nd account
            3rd workspace -> 1st profile = 3nd account
            ...
            or
            1st workspace -> 1st profile = 1st account
            2nd workspace -> 2nd profile = 1st account
            3rd workspace -> 3rd profile = 1st account

          P.S. I used 5" diskettes.

            Hi, i mean:

            1st workspace -> 1st profile = 1st account
            2nd workspace -> 1st profile = 2nd account
            3rd workspace -> 1st profile = 3nd account

            be like

            1st workspace -> googleacc1, facebook acc1, etc.
            2nd workspace - > googleacc2, facebook acc2, etc.

            but everything with the same Opera profile logged in if this would work.

            On my first 5" were LHX Attack Chopper and Carrier Command 💪

              @pschirki Workspaces = tabs group/stack. What you want is that Opera supports multiple profiles.

                @pschirki Thanks. Anyway I'm still in fog of possibilities.

                I had three accounts of Yandex services once. I cannot envision any hindrance today, to open them in 1 workspace or every account in one different workspace.

                What your suggestion might bring into your habits of your work or improved efficiency in dealing with such monstrous number of accounts?. 😉

                Do you mean logical isolation of accounts? In what way? Similar to the Containers implemented in Firefox browser?

                I'm open for all improvements to the idea of multiple workspaces as it is a truly brilliant one. You may open 24 of workspaces distributed in many windows as you like (n WS x 24). I use two or four (for testing purpose) windows on one screen as for now. Every window is populated with 6 WSs. Each of them can open different pages, despite the same workspace icons.

                If Google discovers the same IP so what? Yandex knew my IP, it knew that the three accounts of mine were opened from the same place and the same PC. Nothing. It worked.

                There is a requests for unique bookmark pools for every workspace. I'm not for it, but I accept that idea. Multiplying features, or in reality - increasing unnecessary complication of Opera application, isn't the best path for Opera improvement. In other words - I like to have a clear view of well proved rationale.

                Summing up - I do not understand your idea. 😞

                Have a nice time! 🙂

                  @leocg @pavelopdev Thanks for answering!

                  Yes, and this maybe to separate by workspaces.

                  So that on workspace 1 are my personal google/Microsoft etc account
                  and on workspace 2 my work accounts from Google, MS etc.

                  I tried the sessionbox extension, but when i open lets say the my personal google account on one tab and my work account on a 2nd tab , on every page i open with the 2nd account is my 1st account logged in.
                  I hope you understand my problem, as i am no native english speaker

                      @pschirki Nice of you, thanks.

                      1. Up to the time when the Firefox upper echelon declared the war on free speech I was using Firefox with two excellent extensions:

                      a) Firefox Multi-Account Containers which encapsulated pages efficiently, fending off peepers and other Big Social Hookers from gathering our data,

                      b) Simple Tab Groups which excellently copied Opera's Workspaces.

                      They work together and intertwined. They are able to create sort of Software Rolodex of Workspaces. Imagine you have a knob (Opera Sidebar) which you twiddle up or down and new row of tabs (Workspaces) appears in your view in a browser. Read carefully the extensions' descriptions.

                      That's what you should touch, learn and apply into your working/playing environment. As I said - Firefox censorship and my understanding of free "whatever" are light years apart.

                        @pschirki Profile 1 would have your accounts1, Profile 2 would be used for your accounts 2.

                        Inside each profile you could use several workspaces to separate different themes, subjects, but they wouldn't be for you to login in different accounts in the same service.

                          @leocg I know, and my Suggestion was to change this so one can use at least multiple logins in one workspace.

                            @pschirki Changing it would totally break the idea of workspaces.

                              @pschirki Think about choosing right tool for your real tasks. New tools are not necessary, not always, at least. On the other side, try to use your monitors' screens aka multiple Desktops for accounts separation. Swiss Army Knife with 100 small shits is a toy for kids, not a real Knife for scouts and globetrotters. 😉

                                What? Why is the idea to be able to use different log-ins on different workspaces breaking their idea. As i see it being able to use multiple accounts over different workspaces would eliminate being forced to use different browsers.

                                  @pschirki Every Workspace is sort of a micro Opera Window (instance) glued together by a mega (crowning) window. It's cheaper to use many Opera separate windows (without profiles) than create new mega window wrapping them up.

                                  The question is interesting - why other browsers incorporated profiles instead of multiple profile tabs.

                                  Have you seen profiled stacks in Vivaldi? They would have implemented your idea of profiled workspaces then.

                                    @pschirki Because workspaces are for group tabs, so that you can have different sets of pages and windows according to a subject (news, sports, travel, streaming services, social networks, etc). They aren't meant for having different logins in the same service.

                                          @leocg Yes, i know this. and still it would be more convenient to be able to have a solution like this:

                                          1st workspace -> 1st profile = 1st account
                                          2nd workspace -> 1st profile = 2nd account
                                          3rd workspace -> 1st profile = 3nd account
                                          (kudos to @pavelopdev )

                                          than use 3 different browsers for such a solution. Imagine to be able to use 3 different web.whatsapp tabs in one browser in different workspaces! Is this really so unthinkable?
