I have totally avoided getting an Opera account because I don't like sharing my information and I don't like getting email about stuff that doesn't interest me. That's why I use Opera instead of other browsers. Today I got a tab saying Aria had been updated and, the advertising on the tab assured me that it's really, really good!

So, I went through the hassle of creating an Opera account (which I didn't want to do, as you'll recall) and then I had to agree to sharing my personal information and that I would receive digest emails (which I don't want) in order to use the forums to express my disappointment that Aria says that the feature I was trying to use wasn't available.

I was just trying to ask about my truck not starting and it just gave a canned message that the feature isn't available. No "maybe if you worded it differently" or "you'll have to use a different AI to discuss auto repair" or anything useful.

I'm not really interested in Fjords at all, as fascinating as they may be.

Did I just do something wrong? Does this thing even work?

Please advise...tell me I didn't waste my time and that it will be worth having given away my privacy and time once the bugs are worked out, and what will work?

And now that I've tried to use your forum to send feedback, it's making me pick a topic or category or whatever, even though I started the post withing one of the feedback categories, presumable for Aria.
