Problem
Cannot interact with the crypto hardware wallet (e.g. Ledger Nano) via Opera.

Reproduce steps

• Go to https://wallet.kukai.app/connect-ledger to collect to Ledger device
• Click on Connect

You will get the following error

Failed to set transport. Please make sure your browser supports WebHID or U2F

Expected behavior

• Be able to connect with a crypto hardware wallet (Ledger Nano)

This is pretty weird because I didn't encounter this issue with other Chromium-based browsers (try with Vivaldi and Brave).

I'm unsure if the Opera team intends to break this thing, but I believe it should work like the other Chromium browser.

@sukinoverse Not sure if Opera support those things already.

@leocg Unfortunately it doesn't

At least my case with the Tezos blockchain wallet and another similar topic (which is Cosmos blockchain wallet).

I try to reproduce it across Chromium-based browsers, but only Opera caused that error.

Of course, I try all of the Opera Stable, Beta, and Developer versions. So, I believe that the issue still exists.

I kind of an Opera fan recently.
I hope this issue will get some spotlight from the team ^^
