      I see several posts about this feature which is not present in Opera browser and would like to add to the discussion. So far I have found the Opera UI/UX to be great, almost enough such that I'd switch to Opera full time. However, the lack of a two-finger swipe function to go back and forward in a tab is a huge dealbreaker. Having to click the arrow in the top left corner is very inconvenient and annoying, especially as a native Chrome user. From a business perspective, such a glaringly impactful deficit in navigation fluidity should be addressed as soon as possible, because consider what Opera needs to do in order to get people to actually want to switch from Chrome. Think about it and it's really obvious, the majority of people browsing have become habituated to using this extremely convenient feature, and to suddenly have that stripped away really, really makes it easy to just keep using Chrome. It doesn't matter how many fancy new features Opera has, if something so essential and ubiquitous doesn't exist that communicates a clear lack of understanding of who your consumers are. Opera will never be a competitive browser if you ignore these countless requests. If there is anyone at Opera who understands product design or business strategy in the slightest, I strongly suggest starting a movement to develop this feature.
