      Please add improvements to Opera Android and Opera Mini's native Adblock
      https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.opera.browser
      https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.opera.mini.native

      For example:

      1. In Brave android browser it is possible to block scripts from a certain website. This is very important as it has ad detectors that go beyond the ad blocking and prevent the page from being viewed (paywall). A practical example: A news website from Brazil that, in the report in question, talks about Whatsapp: https://oglobo.globo.com/economia/tecnologia/noticia/2022/05/usuarios-relatam-instabilidade-no-whatsapp-nesta-terca-feira-1-25511759.ghtml

      In Opera android browser 69.2.3606.65175 (latest version from PlayStore) you can see that it is not possible to read the news as the website opens a Paywall asking to become a subscriber to the site: https://i.imgur.com/RcieuJu.jpg

      In Brave android browser, as it is possible to block the script, I can read the news without problems: https://i.imgur.com/GHN94st.jpg https://i.imgur.com/l3oUTyo.jpg

      1. Also, I suggest that you allow users to add their own filter list for Opera native Adblock. This already exists in Opera desktop, but should be added to Opera for Android. Brave browser has a specific address (brave://adblock) that the user accesses and sees all available adblock filters and if he wants, he can also type and manually add the filters he wants: https://i.imgur.com/IoGtrGU.jpg

      Thank you
