It is pretty obvious that a lot of extensions and sites uses the ALT key for some really obvious reason. But we can't use it in Opera and Opera GX, because it opens a dropdown menu .-.
It is indeed useless and annoying for me and a lot of people. Maybe just allow to delete this key bind in settings.
Also as you can deduce it after reading title and the post up to this point, that music in background is useless too. Who use it? I think all use just youtube in tab or some external app like spotify etc. It just takes space and does nothing...
But all other features are quite cool also the UI, that's why I'm still here. But don't make me switch to google chrome .-.
Wow, you read it all! Thank you
Have a nice day

I think that adding customizable bookmarks on speed dial page would be awesome (message me please if this could be done already). I'm talking about setting an images to every single bookmarks. Right now bookmarks are just a colourful icons with text in it. For me, that's not really convenient. For example, for my gmail bookmark i want to add a gmail logo on it, in order for better visualisation.
In my opinion, this feature is not very complicated to program, but at the same time it adds plenty of individualisation to browser.
Btw, best gui browser right now, really appreciate your work and hope to help you more in future! Thanks!

@Adrian080 yeah, i'm using bg music too sometimes, bc it's quite relaxing. Moreover, you can simply disable it in settings, so thats no big deal.

Hi! Will opera gx see a built-in multiple profiles feature in the future (for easier navigation instead of manually doing it by modifying the folders and such)? It will be incredibly helpful for shared computers and for doing different stuff online simultaneously that requires different accounts. Also the discord server invite doesn't work anymore, i would love to join and be updated. Thanks! Keep up the good work.

@leocg It would be nice if there was an option to access the session stored in Last Session and Last Tabs and other back up sessions in the case of a lost session due to a crash (I am currently in a scenario where such a feature would prove useful) another thing that would prove useful is if Opera had an alternate backup that is taken everyday and held for a week. It would also be nice to have an alternate option for Hot Tabs Killer where rather than to kill the tabs you could put them to sleep the same way that Opera GX does to all the tabs when you turn the RAM limiter down all the way and enable the Hard limit. A final nice to to have would be the option to put a music player and history on the sidebar to pause, play, skip, and mute, media, and retain a history of the tabs that have recently played media and have the ability to pause, play, skip and mute those tabs.

- Dragging tabs out of windows and to a separate window must be addressed, It's currently very buggy and you must drag a tab out of a window before placing it into a different window.
- Sidebar is an amazing feature, I don't need it on every window. I suggest a small button to toggle the sidebar per window. Simple checkbox to disable a sidebar with every new/dragged tab.
- Flow is a brilliant concept, it must be able to grab my current timecode from videos. I would rather just pull it up from my youtube history without flow if it saves my play location.
Creative suggestions (less important)
- Tab color per website: have each tab slightly tinted towards the website icon that it's on, for easier readability.
- A button on the built-in snapshot that instantly puts your screenshot into flow.
- Workspace colors
- Fade from disabling force dark page so my eyes don't explode (some icons are invisible without disabling)

Add the Threema Messenger to the sidebar.
Threema is getting bigger and bigger.
It's the better WhatsApp (My Opinion) -

i would like to request the opera gx team to add a few of the following features in a new update to the gx browser:-
1)the ability to change the colour for the tabs in the start page(or to add a picture to it).
2)to customize the songs for the background music.
3)a Gmail icon in the sidebar.
4)the ability to customize the position of the sidebar.
5)the ability to add custom sites into the sidebar.those are all of the suggestions I could think of. you don't have to implement all of the features but it would be greatly apperashated if you add a few of the features listed above.

tobiasztrzaska98 last edited byI play death metal guitar and was forced to use ASIO deus and got a eureka. All my replays have music and fellow voices that were audible to me at the time which is problematic. Note that I would like to archive my best replays in .mp4 or .webm format without the music and screams on discord application.

@tobiasztrzaska98 You didn't have to post your request 4 times - I only approved the first one. Which admittedly was not the most readable, but I'd already approved it. Please post further comments on this topic in this thread (in English), or in the Polish local forum (in Polish).

it would be nice for the browser to automatically translate languages on webpages similar to how chrome does.

Hello,
I've been loving Opera GX so far and enjoy a lot of the bells and whistle features that aren't available from competitors. I use the popout video function on my single monitor setup and it is amazing. I had one suggestion for it that would make it perfect in my eyes which would be the ability to "pin" the window with a toggle that allows the window to be uninteractable, or best case scenario even click-through. This would allow users to overlay the video on other applications without hindering their workflow.
Opacity options for the popout video would be the cherry on top!
Thank you!

This is more an opinion than anything else, but I think they could be ideas that would improve the program in the future.
I think they should integrate a reader aloud and a translator as options within the sidebar. I know they are things that can be obtained through extensions, but they do not look as good aesthetically and functionally as the integrated applications.
Another utility that could be applied is a shortcut or method to activate the "Off" mode, which would be a function that would drastically reduce all the resources that the browser needs, something like going into hibernation mode, although they should first solve the crushing problems.
Other ideas that come to mind would be the possibility of editing the logo that appears at the top left (something similar to what vivaldi does but more customizable) and the possibility of editing the size of the icons in the sidebar.
Another idea, for example, would be to give more configurations to the boards, allowing to choose if the tabs that are in a board are private or not, and the possibility of sending tabs from one board to another by right clicking.
To finish, I think it would be a good idea to include Opera Turbo in the new browser.
I hope you comment on more ideas and such, or (always with respect) criticize and improve the ideas that I have mentioned.
Thank you very much for reading it

@lifelesskitsune Okay, I have to correct myself in my own comment. I just realized that the function to move tabs between boards already exists, sorry about the bug. For the rest I have not found any bugs, but if you realize that there are more bugs please leave me a record of it here below.
