      Logging into some sites never works and results in an error of some kind, different with each site. I would guess it's related to security, there was a while when Google logins would consistently fail as well. Password managers seem to be broken sometimes, they would inconsistently be able to function. This is specific to Opera GX, as if I try to do the same thing in Google Chrome it will succeed.

        @haln22111 It works if you provide the username and password manually?

        What error message is given?

          @leocg No, manually entering the login does not resolve the issue.

          The errors depend on the site, some give bad request with headers too long exception, others will just load forever. Some just redirect to a generic "we're having technical difficulties" page. These issues only seem to arise when dealing with finance or payments, I haven't seen it happen on most other sites. Maybe an OAuth related problem (wild guess though).

          1Password sometimes won't find any login information after signing in, but it feels random.

          Trying the same thing in Google Chrome will have no issue. It didn't use to be a problem in Opera GX, but the last few months I noticed this issue more and more.
