Version 105.0.4970.34, facing the same issue today 08 december.
Cleaned up cache but nothing resolved the issue.
Looks like its time to move to another browser.

Just dropping in to also say I am experiencing this issue. Started a couple of days ago while I was trying to get Twitch drops for Overwatch.

@madarauchiha310 Some things that you may try:

– Go to twitch.tv site
– Click on lock icon
– Go to cookies
– Delete all twitch cookies
– Refresh site.
– Do Not Go to twitch extension, just refresh twitch.tv site
– Accept cookies
– login on twitch.tv -

to extension and login too - it will pass

You can also try going to opera://browserjs, disable it, login to Twitch and enable browsers again

Some people said that turning adblocker off helped

Thank you it worked for me.

I tried this twice and it didn't work for me. I never got an accept cookies message. Even tried Control F5 to refresh the cache.

It happened 2 months ago and the removal of cookies helped. Now this problem is back and nothing helps.

Same issue here, no chance for solution.

Twitch says: contact Opera
Opera says: contact Twitch

Guess the best would be, Opera is contacting Twitch to find out, what the supposed problem is.

That can not be true!

@mogwa Twitch is blocking Opera, that's clear. Now Opera needs to update its workaround or find a new one

Let's hope the best indeed.
Anyway, I'd rather avoid Twitch than change the browser

@leocg Do you have proof of this? Because that's a strong accusation, friend.

@makoruu The message on Twitch's page.

@leocg Can you link it? Or screen cap it?

I don't see anything and I've been watching Throne and Liberty videos for the last couple of days.

For testing i unfortunately logged out at twitch, and tried to login again yesterday. Just see the screenshot, it's in german. So you better do not logout temporarily

Translation: Your browser is currently not supported

Yeah, it says that for everybody. But I don't think Twitch is blaming Opera. I haven't seen anything to that effect, anyways.

I would like to know the reason. Opera uses Chromium as well as Edge etc.

@makoruu But who said anything about blaming anyone? It was said that Twitch is blocking Opera and the message shows it

@mogwa Off-Topic and it's not for be discussed in this topic, but it's basically to keep things easier to maintain, since the engine is the most problematic part of a browser.

Basically they say they only support the browsers listed on this page, which gives them the "moral" right to tell you to duck off if you contact support with questions about other browsers.

Ok, i finally could log in again, after disabling browserjs.
Before that i removed all entries for cookies for twitch.

Let's see how long that will stay.

Ok, i am logged in, but i can't collect twitch drops. That's the same behaviour than before i logged out.
So this is blocking opera through the rear door!

There is no evidence supporting that Twitch is intentionally blocking Opera.

Just that some code is misswired somewhere and it doesn't work. This happened before several years ago.

Opera even uses Chromium. Twitch is not out to get Opera. You're making it seem like they're intentionally doing this to hurt Opera users.
