@leocg that does work if you only have one social tab, but I have several. When you have multiple it opens one of them, and then if you hit the hotkey again it just cycles through the rest of them. It's a solution to the opening the sidebar, but not a complete fix unfortunately

Hi! Just a simple request, I would like a way to scale up or down the sidebar icons. I use the sidebar for keeping up to date on notifications, and the icons are a little small for me. A way to make these icons bigger would be very appreciated.

If there's a way to do this already please let me know!

@leocg Perhaps I'm not doing a good job of explaining what I'm asking.
Currently if I get a notification on my Facebook Messenger, it shows up as a red dot on my sidebar as I have notifications enabled. So to then read the message, I have to left click on the sidebar on the Messenger icon. That will bring up a little window on the left side that lets me read the messages. Now that I have read the message, I no longer need it open. To close it I have to left click outside of the Messenger window. I believe a hot key to accomplish this would be more intuitive, and would be more efficient.

@leocg Yes, I saw that, but it doesn't accomplish my request. It does indeed cycle through my sidebars, but it does not help me minimize the sidebar when I'm done with it.

Hello, very simple request that I am surprised isn't already in existence. While watching Youtube, I got a notification on the sidebar from one of my messengers, and opened it. It covered half of my Youtube video which was fine, as I was focusing on the messages. As I was finished with messaging, I wanted to get back to the video and just assumed I could hide the sidebar with the Escape key, but I couldn't. I immediately went to the settings to see if a hotkey, perhaps not Escape, worked to accomplish this. No such hotkey, and it seems like a simple solution that would go a long way for me. I'm all about hotkeys, so having a way to max/min the sidebar would make it much more intuitive.

Concisely:
Request: Hotkey [KEY] Maximize/Minimize most recent sidebar window
Benefit/Payoff: People don't use features that are not intuitive. Making the sidebar pleasant to use makes it more likely to be used than ignored. As a major reason for me downloading Opera GX, I feel this is of great import.

Please ignore this request if I've missed it. If I have missed it, please let me know!
