      @makoruu If you go to a page and it says that your browser is not supported and don't let you do anything, then the page is basically blocking that browser. That's simple.

      See, that's what called an assumption.

      That is what you believe, which may or may not be true.

      It could just be a bug with Opera. Twitch is not necessarily blocking Opera on purpose, for what reason? Because it doesn't like Opera?? There is no direct evidence.

      You can't just make baseless accusations, especially as a forum moderator. People will think that is real when it might not be.

        @makoruu It's a fact, it's something objective that Twitch is blocking Opera.

        If it's on purpose or if it's due to a problem, is a different discussion.

          So what ist it then?
          If Twitch does not support Opera, then for what reason? What is the point why they don't support Opera? Noone can give a precise answer.

          The time Opera was not supported from different software is long gone. especially since using Chromium.

            There are still sites that block Opera for whatever reasons. E.g. I can log into Amazon cloud reader, when I go to read.amazon.com. But if I try to do the same on the German site (lesen.amazon.de), it tells me: your browser isn’t supported.
            The reason will be, that Opera is transmitting its own user string, which Vivaldi or Brave don‘t. Actually they have given by because of sites working like that. So they might not run into such fallacies. But they are not counted by any statistics therefore. I guess, that‘s the reason, why Opera doesn’t hide itself and don’t give up on using the OPRA string.

                  I live in the United States. An update for Opera just rolled out about half an hour ago.

                  I went to Twitch, signed in, and it worked.

                  But, I also cleared my cookies for Twitch a few days ago, so you might still need to do that later when the update rolls out for Germany.

                    I also have this problem, I receive information that my browser is not supported and I cannot log in, all this after I logged out and wanted to log in again. To sum up, I can't log in because the browser is not supported

                            See? you are assuming too. This isn't only happening for Opera. I use a Korean browser called Whale Browser and happens exactly the same issue. So it isn't just a "bug" with Opera and clearly something with Twitch.

                              I had the same problem and for me helped to uninstall the old FrankerFace addon, which was greyed out in the extentions tab.

                                My final solution:

                                unsuscribe from Twitch, the best I ever could do 😀

                                  I just updated to the recent version and tried all the troubleshooting I found and no dice. This is happening again in April 2025. I was able to log in the other day and had no issues. IDK why this is happening again.
