      I've been using Opera GX for some time now after TheRussianBadger promoted it a while back, I figured chrome wasnt really for me and wanted something more customisable but, since using this browser I've been seeing more and more genAI dogshit being implemented, along with crypto.

      The image below is just one of them and idk if it is opera using this image or its just a copy paste, but the fact there is an ai system in the settings that you have to turn off, a crypto wallet that you also have to turn off, and turning off these sections on the front page doesn't get rid of them, it only greys them out.

      I severely doubt this will reach any of the opera team and if it does I imagine they just won't care because they probably use the slop machines themselves (iirc there is a slop generator in opera as part of the genai system). I'm just hoping that I'm not alone in wanting this shit gone, I'd rather not shift browsers when this is the only thing I find terrible about Opera GX

        @Rhepli I also found out that these forums have a "reputation" score, meaning that no one can even interact with my post unless they have reputation. This is a f forum, what's the f point of reporting issues and giving feedback if the only people allowed to interact are people who spend their life here?

            @leocg Not everyone cares enough to make a reply, I don't even see a reason why anyone needs "reputation" just to push something further into the algorithm. Sounds like an excuse to make these forums less useful, and just drive people away from even bothering to post something. Hell I can tell from the lack of interaction on this post that everyone is just fine with the ai slop

              @Rhepli The needing to have a certain reputation to upvoter posts exists to avoid manipulation, among other things.
