@adam-broda I have been complaining about this for ages. It is one of the primary reasons I use Opera so little now.
If I was not so in love with the Workspaces I would have stopped using Opera completely because of this ridiculous 'forcing' the messengers section on us.

Same, same, same.
I use Opera less and less because this crap pops up multiple times a day, no matter how many times I 'turn it off' - if I cannot make it stop, I don't want any part of it.. if I did not send stuff to Flow from my phone for later reading I won't use Opera at all anymore and this crap is the reason. -
[Duplicated]Messengers still in sidebar and unremovableOpera for Windows
Every so often I install Opera and check.
I love the sidebar, I want Opera for the Workspaces, it goes so well with the way I work.
Sadly, the sidebar still comes with all these Messengers and no way to make them go away.
Turn them off you say? Yea, sure, I have done that a million times it feels like.. they come right back!So, as happens every time, I have lost patience yet again with this garbage. Telegram and FB both turned themselves on again today. I have not even used them on this computer. Yet here they are..
As soon as I finish whining here I will be uninstalling Opera again, maybe I'll check back next year, but I doubt the devs give a crap, they seem to like it so I am sure, if I even bother, I won't use it for more than 3-4 days again next january..
So long folks.
