      Recently, Opera GX has started recommending Chase.com to me when I start typing any URL that starts with 'cha', even though I've never visited the Chase website, don't bank with them, and don't have it bookmarked. Not only that, but I can't dismiss the suggestion like I can with other URLs.

      This is extremely annoying because I keep accidentally visiting the Chase website now. I've tried all the steps included in the instructions thread, including creating a new profile, and the auto-suggestion is still appearing in that new profile.

      At this point it feels like a dark UX pattern because there doesn't seem to be any way for me to stop seeing it, even in the flags settings.

        @tiredofusernames It doesn't happen here. Probably it's a regional promoted site.

          It's a promotional suggestion. There's no way to turn it off.
