        I have turned on Instagram and Twitter notifications, but they don't seem to work in Opera GX. In other browsers, everything seems to be fine. In Opera GX, if i go to notification testing websites and trigger notifications in there, they work as well. So what could be the reason? What do I have to check in order to make them work as expected?

          I have notifications enabled on several sites and despite this I get none. I don't know why and can't find a reason online. It has been several months and I can't seem to get it to work and would rather not reinstall the browser. Please help.

            @thomascapella I've tried all the versions. Desktop notifications do not work in Opera while other chromium-based browsers work fine. Reinstall won't help, it's a global problem. You may recieve notifications until the first relaunch.

              @yamimono Notifications work until first relaunch. There's nothing you can do besides waiting for some years. This problem is ancient, but developers don't seem to care about it.

                  @ruffed Thank you for the response. I tried reinstalling already and it did nothing, thanks for informing me.

                    Has there been any effort to fix this yet?

                      It doesn't look like the developers are worried about this problem.

                      Opera Stable / Opera GX / Legacy versions (both x86/x64) under Win7 / Win10.

                      You may re-activate this function for once, and it will work during the current session. But after you launch Opera for the next time, pop-out notifications disappear.
