is there any official update from Opera? I cannot believe this is not fixed by now or any announcement from Opera

@jcmlny Apparently the devs know about this, I came across this bug 1 month ago, have switched to another browser since then. Response time is shocking...

@opera-user12 Big Sur 11.7.4 also has this issue. Confirmed on 3 different computers with Big Sur. 11.7.1 & 11.7.3.
Looking for reason this might be happening but I'm thinking it's to do with permissions not allowing data to be stored or edited. Reports mirror those with macs trying to import csv passwords without success.
So far have tried enable full disk access for Opera and changing sharing & perms on both com.operasoftware.OperaGX folders, cache and App Support, to chmod 777 everyone. No dice.
I'll see if a VM with pre-monterey works.

I'm also experiencing this issue, I've already turned off the adblocker and allowed cookies on several sites, but it doesn't help. It's a shame because the feature that has the messenger options in the sidebar is really useful, but not so much if you constantly have to re-login to everything.
Hope this gets fixed soon.

Test this solution. Remove the Opera Safe Store password from Keychain Access login item.
Steps:
Open Keychain Access application
Choose 'login' keychain on left
Choose 'Password' group
Find 'Opera Safe Storage' entry, right click it and choose Delete.

On my Mac, Opera is now remembering cookie selections and syncing everything without issue.
Thank you for resolving this. I have missed using Opera.

I got two more keys in there, just with some hash after the "Opera Safe Storage"
Should I delete them too? What did you guys do? -

@gargamelcz delete them both. After you re-enter your login\pass to opera sync manager, browser will create new key there, so there is no problem in deleting both of entries.

Hello everyone.
I found a bug. Every time I exited from Opera, i log outed from every single site and service. It looks like cookies problem. I double checked settings and everything related to cookies is disabled. Also I was trying to install old version of Opera - the same. Just to be more confident that is not only my issue - I asked a few friends to install Opera and check it. The result was the same.
Initial data:
- three users had the same behaviour
- users use m2, m1 and intel chips
- all this checks were made on 28.02.23
- opera version is the latest one
