i have an android and opera on pc.
Yesterday i deleted my opera account searched for a specific site on my laptop and today this site showed up on my phone, in my search bar, as if i had visited this site before o my phone. Both devices should not be synced anymore.
But on my phone i am logged into the deleted account.
How does this work?

@greaggr You didn't delete the account, you cleared the data. You have now (re-)uploaded the data from your phone to the account.

@greaggr Probably Google (or other search engine) did it.
