It's frustrating to open a picture in a new tab, zoom in so that details can be seen, and flip back to the previous tab to see that the before-appropriate zoom level has now skyrocketed to match the picture tab. That's not a good design and I'd like to see the zoom level of each tab independently adjustable.

Is there a way to force battery saver mode to stay on all the time? It's just one more click in a million per session, but sometimes I forget to switch it on until I've been working for awhile, losing some battery time.

How can I make Startpage my default search? I can use it as you said with the precursor, "sp", but I want it to be the default without having to type the "sp".

There's one particular rag publication masquerading as a news source that comes up in the feed on my Speed Dial page that I want so badly to banish from my sight forever. Is this possible? I can't seem to find any fine-grained feed source selections. Is there a secret page I can go to, to edit the sources list?

Perhaps there's an extension someone might know of to accomplish this?

This happened to me yesterday also. I had installed Opera on four aging XP machines at my workplace in place of Chrome as a stopgap until my boss buys new machines that are faster and that can run modern software. This is because Opera (for me) has a much lighter footprint than Chrome and doesn't tax those old pc's nearly as much. I'm a fan of efficiency, so I hope that the increased performance will impress my boss enough to sway him from his Microsoft-centric (Edge browser...gag!) ways. It was a trick to even get him to try Chrome.

But yesterday morning I began to log in to certain sites that we use for purchasing products for resale, and on every machine the passwords were gone. They are not synced because they are on a network administered by a company which maintains our primary sales software, so I did not want to raise any unnecessary flags with them for the (hopefully) short time before we get our new computers.

After this fiasco I may have to take the risk.

Happy day to all.

Thank you lando242 for the link.

Having to uninstall, then reinstall the extensions in the order I want them to display is unacceptable behavior for a modern browser. What if I later install another extension I want right in the middle? Ridiculous.

I've left Chrome for Opera, and I'm using pretty much the same extensions, but I want to organize them in the same familiar order I used in Chrome. Why is this so impossible to do????
