      Hi and thanks for this browser, i used it with pleasure since many years after having tried dozens of others!

      On my linux systems, i am used to move the cache folder of my browsers directly into RAM in order to gain some speed.

      It is easy with a "standard" opera installation via *.rpm or *.deb package, using the "--disk-cache-dir=" command on the opera shortcut, but now i am using Flatpak to install Opera : please where is the cache location? Or is there any way to command Opera to use a personnal path for its cache?

      Adding the --disk-cache command on the flatpak opera shortcut do not works, un fortunately

      If somebody here knows about this, i am also wondering where is the profile default path, in order to install profile-sync-daemon, a tiny soft on Linux which copy/paste the browser profile to RAM at each boot.

      Thans a lot in advance

      Greetings from France

        @shoshogu As said, you can see the path to cache folder on opera://about.

          Hi, thanks a lot for this tip.

          The path is :
          /home/username/.var/app/com.opera.Opera/cache/opera/Default

          Do you know if there is any setting to move it to another custom path?

            @shoshogu There is a command line, --disk-cache-dir.
