This is in all probability an issue since the latest update. But I don't get Flow connect. The QR-code doesn't go away when scanning and inserting the code manually fails. I think this should be addressed soon. Thank you.

Great news! Thank you a lot for this.

@burnout426 Thank you for these hints. Still believe it must rather be an issue on Spotify's side.
Yes, I'm on Mac, but it's happening on the Windows version as well.
On Windows, I tested Chrome (passed) and Vivaldi (failed). On Mac I tested Safari (failed) and Vivaldi (failed). It's only happening with Spotify, I activated my Deezer account as well - no problem. Nor are there problems with Instagram or any other site, as far as I have noticed.
I don't seem to be logged out completely, as I get no notification about a new log in via mail as if I were doing a brand new log in.
Maybe, I'll wait the next few days to come, if there's a fix. Other steps might be to far reaching at this moment.

@hexxangst Well, I've done the same, as I thought my former profile might have been corrupted.
Nevertheless, it's happening time and again. But they normally fix it with the next release.
Flow is an important feature for me as well. Especially as there's no real sync between iOS devices and desktop. Flow at least gives partial sync. So I hope, it will work again soon.

I've taken time to try other browsers too. But they all eventually run into some issues temporarily. So it's just a matter of choice which kind of issues you want to face.

@iosaddict-0 That’s an issue, I don’t see any clear answer, too. They could say, that Opera for this or that reason might not be affected, which isn’t very probable I guess.
Or that their update for some mysterious reason already contains some or all fixes.
Even Vivaldi is updated more often, although their development team is much smaller. Their Chromium is more recent as well.

@burnout426 Just turned to Deezer for now.

I've connected my devices through Flow again. Seems to work for now. Thank you.

Let me be honest: The new Opera One R2 is mostly about eye candy - isn't it? I mean, why should I change my themes with even having music in the background?
It really got bloated in my eyes with all of that new stuff. Isn't a web browser mainly for searching the web and getting out of the way?
Also, I when experimenting with themes I couldn't delete my customized ones, which leads me to having five Classic, two Midsommer and three Aurora in my gallery.
Still, even with a Aurora enabled I see the sites in my sidebar with just classic dark theme which is very unpleasant for my eyes.
I'm sorry to say, I would have expected something different from this update.
Unfortunately, my other appreciated browser Vivaldi also has come up with a new visual upgrade these days. And I don't like them either. Time to switch to Firefox or Brave again, I think.

@Elton-eth Falls du das noch liest: Um welchen Browser handelt es sich? Gibt es einen Browser, in dessen Forum sich Entwickler persönlich um Support kümmern?
Ich bin ab und zu im Forum von Vivaldi unterwegs und da "helfen" auch fast nur Freiwillige. Und die sind meist wiederum häufig so "überzeugt", dass sie erst einmal behaupten, sie hätten das Problem noch nie gehabt und deshalb könne es das auch nicht geben. Mir ist das manchmal eine zu verschworene Gemeinschaft.
Darum wäre ich neugierig, welche Software du tatsächlich meinst.

I've found this thread in the Spotify community. Originally from 2019, but issue is happening to people, recently as well.

@deathcat It's the reason why I'm switching to a more secure browser like Vivaldi, too. They implement security fixes from Chromium almost on the next day every time.

@leocg You‘re right. Although DER SPIEGEL is one of the most popular quality news pages, it’s very (!) heavy on advertising. So rhey‘ve found multiple ways to circumvent ad blockers.

@burnout426 Fine. Thank you. It’s great to have this kind of customization.

I get, that Opera promotes itself as having this decent ad blocker built in. But when it comes to real world pages, it looks like this:

As you see, although the ad blocker is enabled this certain website spiegel.de has so many ads coming through it, it really doesn't matter.

And there's no change if I turn off "allow acceptable ads". I get this one then:

I call this really disappointing. I know I can load an add on like UBO, but why do I get so much promotional stuff with the native ad blocker turned on? It's what I would expect when I didn't use an ad blocker at all.

Split screen is a welcome addition to Opera. I've used this feature in Vivaldi very often. So I appreciate that Opera does it, too, now. I hope, they add some possibility to split at least one more tab to it. Nevertheless, a very handy feature.

@HealingCross316 It's happening in Vivaldi as well, as I realize now.

I don't know since when this happens and if it is really related to Opera as browser.
But as of today I can't switch between my two Instagram accounts without logging into them. Before there was no problem.

Here are some of the possible troublemakers I can think of:

1. I'm using Threads paralelly which can't be used with two accounts on desktop.
2. I've got the inbuilt ad- and tracker-blocker turned on.
3. I'm blocking third party cookies
4. I'm using the DNS over HTTPS-Setting

But I could swear, that it had worked before without any issues. Does anyone experience the same issues?

Ich habe eben im Vivaldi Forum etwas Ähnliches gelesen. Vielleicht handelt es sich um ein Chromium-Problem.

Meiner Erfahrung nach kann das an der verwendeten Hardware liegen (hohe RAM-Belastung z.B.). Vielleicht hilft es auch, Verlauf und ggf. sogar alle Browserdaten zu löschen (Cookies aber vielleicht besser nicht).

Wird Opera über einen Account synchronisiert? Auch da könnte es helfen, den Account zurückzusetzen. Aber das sind auch nur Spekulationen, weil wir den Computer und die Konfiguration von Opera nicht wirklich kennen.

Congratulations to the team!

@eharabien Deleting custom designs has been added to the recent update. Thank you very much for that.
