      Hello,

      I had Opera 70.0.3653.66031. Sync enabled.
      Don't want to update. Don't want ai.
      Updates disabled in play store.
      Opera keeps displaying a pop-up to update and it's so damn fast, I unfortunately pressed on it.
      It updates to 86.5.4550.82704

      adb install -d "com.opera.browser_70.0.3653.66031-1907013204_minAPI24(arm64-v8a,armeabi-v7a)(nodpi)_apkmirror.com.apk"
      I've done this before over the years, it has worked.

      This time: all tabs gone.
      No biggie, just sign-out and sign back in.
      Check on PC in incognito in Brave browser: all tabs and everything is still synced
      Sign back into opera 70 on Android
      Still nothing/no option to restore tabs
      Ok, I guess it must be in the new version. I'll just "update" it then downgrade again
      "update" to 85
      sign in
      It syncs the homepage
      *confused Gru face
      It syncs the homepage. ONE tab
      It erases everything on my account
      Tabs synced: 1

      Expected behavior

      1. The update settings should be set to use the system flag: if system/global updates are disable = no in-app notifications that "hey, there's a newer/better/more secure/ai-chat-french-fry version available and you must update now"

      inb4: clinically insane person doesn't updates and this will make it almost 100% his fault and not something we should fix in the app

      I hope this helps someone. Will try to find a service that actually gives me control over the sync process in the meantime.

      Thank you
