Hello guys

I have a doubt and need some help.

I created an app and want to conditionally enable Opera and disable OperaGX (just for now).

The only thing I noticed that is different in the user agent is the (Edition std-1)

E.g:

Opera: ua:
'Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/108.0.0.0 Safari/537.36 OPR/94.0.0.0',

Opera GX: ua:
'Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/108.0.0.0 Safari/537.36 OPR/94.0.0.0 (Edition std-1)'

What I need to know is, if it is fine to check for that Edition std-1 for OperaGX, is that specific to OperaGX browser? (since both have the same browser name)

Thanks!

On Win11, the User-Agent my Opera GX sends is just:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/108.0.0.0 Safari/537.36 OPR/94.0.0.0
