I am using Opera GX with the ADS blocker enabled. When I remove [.]google.com from the exceptions list, after a while Opera GX adds [.]google.com again to the exceptions list.
This is a serious privacy violation, given that google is the biggest privacy violator on the entire planet.
Please respect our privacy. If I decide that I don't want to be monitored or see google ads, you should respect my privacy. You only made the browser, but the computer is mine. The decision is mine and not yours, respect that.
Remember that this can end up in court martial, this is a crime. -

Maybe I'm an idiot, but I can't find the most basic options, for example:
Deactivate GX Corner.
Customize start-page.
Maintain settings for CPU and RAM limiters between sessions.
Block history saving without using private mode.
Any help would be highly appreciated, I love the GX GUI, but the settings are too confusing to me.

Hi, it has come to my notice that while streaming or screen sharing Opera GX through Discord, instead of the actual screen appearing it is just a plain black screen. Considering that GX is a gaming browser and Discord is used by gamers and others, it would be a valid point to also add support for screensharing via Discord in the browser.

I was wondering why the changelog does no reflect the latest releases?
Currently the latest changelog is for core: 71.0.3770.449 but I have core: 72.0.3815.459 installed.
Where are the changelogs for v 72 ?
Thanks

The current Opera release is 73 and Chromium/Chrome release is 77.
However, OperaGX still uses Opera 72 and Chromium 86 as base. It should be updated. -
The release notes for some of the last updates (the last one is for OperaGX 71.x and current version is 72.x) are missing from the update thread. (https://forums.opera.com/topic/33033/opera-gx-update-released)
They are probably small patches, but it is confusing. -
Lastly, according to https://html5test.com/, Opera has no Speech Recognition, where as
when I test on Chrome it says Prefixed with green check mark. Perhaps add that? I searched it
a little and some people say Opera already has it but not enabled?

Update: Chrome 88 is out, also I said "and Chromium/Chrome release is 77" wrongly, it was should be 86 as later said in the above post, too.

That forum post is probably no longer updated, or only updated for major changes or new features. These type of patch updates only update base chromium version or just apply a quick patch. (i.e bug fixes or security fixes)
opera://update/ page checks for updates if you are running an Opera or Opera based OperaGX browser.
https://ftp.opera.com/ftp/pub/opera_gx/ lists all OperaGX versions with their downloads. The last entry will be the latest available version. (currently 72.0.3815.473)

@mustafaoncel Why does Opera GX use an older version of Chromium than Opera? Doesn't that interfere with speed and safety? Since Opera GX was released for gamers, in addition to customization and also speed..

I honestly don't know too. It's currently 2 major versions behind of Chromium and 1 major versions behind of Opera. Current release is Opera 73 (which has Chromium 87 as base), but it is using Opera 72 as base (which has Chromium 86 as base); but the latest Chrome/Chromium is 88.
So they are both behind but the normal Opera will get the Opera 74 update soon I think, but for OperaGX I don't know.
I hope it will be updated and the updates are released in the same day with the Opera/Chrome/Chromium.

Chances that this will happen are very low.

@mustafaoncel I installed the Beta version, at least so I will always have the latest Chromium version, and as I always like to see new features before, the Beta is a good way. But I really hope that the Opera team thinks well about this issue of the built-in translator, because as I am Brazilian and most of the things I read are in English, I need to use Edge or Chrome to read the news, and this is very annoying , having to open another browser just to be able to use the translate function.
