@bestcodes Except it's the US, and it's available in the rest of the US. I could hear that it's a state law, but all other AIs work perfectly fine (ChatGPT, Bard...) so... doubt it. And if it was the case, surely Opera would have answered by now, this was reported back in what, July?

I'm in the US, and not currently using a VPN, but Aria says the service is not available in my area.

@thelittleevil Iran is one of the countries for which it is intended for the service to not be available

South Dallas - it says it's not available. Stupidly ridiculous. Save for frozen Alaska, Texas is the largest state in the US with massive technology headquarters and tech users.

Well, Opera is still the only browser that properly reformats desktop pages based on zoom level, so it'll continue being my most usable browser on phone and tablet on Android, but it's a shame AI integration is not usable.

Is anyone at Opera listening?

It's been six months with no response (nor fix, obviously), so I guess that answers that

It was recognizing me and working. Now won’t respond to any questions. Says doesn’t operate in your region. I’m in usa.

My workaround for this problem in Austin, TX is to (1) Avtivate the built in VPN and then (2) in the VPN Settings, change my Location From “Optimal (fastest server)” To “Americas” instead

LOL

If it is available in the USA and Texas is in the USA, then Opera should note it is only partially available in the USA. At least until Texas succeeds or something.

As of 03/06/2024, Aria is still unavailable in Houston, TX. Opera devs seem to not care seeing as how this issue has persisted for over 8 months...

@chasepbrock Yeah still not available in SA either. I've opened a bug report on their help center but it was marked as done with no explanation and without any fix. Tried opening another one three weeks ago, still nothing... It's very disappointing how little they care about this issue, and quite upsetting to see them advertising Aria on social media while ignoring the most reported bug.
