      There should be an option to block what the user will consider an advertisement.

      Pictures, paywalls, or java buttons, for instance

      There is such a thing on firefox. It's called element blocking

      But since opera is lightyears behind on the addon area... Here we are.

        @lucasbs This is a must, Brave has it and ublock too because some sites get round the standard blocks

          In contrast, I think it is more important to add rule sources by myself.

            Both the solutions can coexist

            And until they add that possibility, you can apply an adblock to your phone. If rooted, I recommend AdAway. You manage the sources there.

              @lucasbs It doesn't seem to work well without root,The effect of adguard is very good, but opera does not support the HTTPS filtering of adguard

                      @leocg Well I'm clicking on the Desktop version so if the admins here are putting it all in the same basket!

                        The sub-forum has the same name on both sections.
