<![CDATA[Hangs when loading sensitive pages.]]>Opera will not open certain links from sites such as my bank, or T-Mobile. The browser just hangs as if it's trying to load the page. Usually it's a link to access sensitive account information, like, changing a password. Chrome and Edge will work just fine. This will happen on Windows, Linux Mint, and Android systems. I have been using Opera for many years, and this problem has been there for quite awhile, however it's happening so often lately, I need to find a fix, or move on to another browser.

Whatever the case, Chrome and Edge will allow me to connect. I believe there must be others experiencing similar issues. It's very unfortunate because I really like using Opera. I hope that the problem gets worked out in the future, thanks.

Sorry to say that I will be moving away from Opera. The problem that I am having connecting to my financial and service related websites is only getting worse. This happens on Windows, Linux and Android. Regardless of how much I like Opera, and how long I have been using it, I don't have time to tinker with it when I am trying to get work done. Other Chromium based browsers don't have this problem, so why does Opera? I will check back occasionally to see if things improve, because I really like using Opera. Regards, Kenwood51

Doesn't seem to be a way to install a agent switcher extension for Android. With Chrome and Edge based on Chromium, and they have no trouble. I wonder why this is still an issue since Opera is based on Chromium as well.

If it works fine like that, the problem is that they don't recognize Opera and aren't sure how to deal with it. As far as websites go, Opera should be the same as Chrome except for the ad and tracker blocking, and they really shouldn't have either of those on a login page for security reasons.
