<![CDATA[experimental #sidebar-autohide should have a delay]]>hi! i'm really in love with the sidebar and the chance to show and hide it with just a hover. Despite this i have to admit that many sites that i use super frequently have their own tool bar that is, in most of the cases, on the left side (Eg. Teams, Miro, Milanote). what happens, with the #sidebar-autohide flag enabled is that when i try to access those toolbars, the opera sidebar shows up over them, not allowing to use the tools.
What i'm asking for is a short delay before showing up the sidebar (1.5/2 seconds should be enough), reducing accidental bar show-ups

please, fix this one

Much better solution for sidebar access, for the reasons you stated.

Go to settings, scroll down to "advanced", expand and go all the way to the bottom, then click on "configure shortcuts". From there, you can assign a shortcut key to "show sidebar". (it's near the top of the list). Hope this helps.
