Do more on the web, with a fast and secure browser!
Download Opera browser with:
My flow is disconnecting on restarting browser or rebooting device. And it doesnt connect at all after recent update where scanning QR code doesnt help as it keeps scanning but logs in. My data is stored in my flow so how can i access it?
Using latest opera everywhere. Mobile android opera broke sync since recent update.
@airforce25228 This process brings another misery. If you dont update the opera then the opera logo on top left will turn bright red and will force you update and until you dont update, it will nag you. Another reason why opera forces updates and yet their updates sucks. I got an update and now opera is back to its tricks of crashing and unresponsiveness. Will definitely go back to edge if another update doesnt resolve this.
@leocg But why this mess of repeating tabs?
Since I have removed all the tabs from all opera browsers then why "https://www.sync.opera.com/tabs" and "search tabs" magnify glass icon near top right shows them?
I didnt realized opera was freaked up in its basic operations and processes.
My personal review of Opera One in July 2023
The Opera browser is as always good-looking and most importantly, works way better than chrome and other chromium browsers and doesnt hang like them. The mobile Opera is always better since it was in java and currently it has features I could hardly find in any other browser.
But that is all good I have to say since Opera isnt keen on upgrading itself with time and users.
What I liked about Opera during my school days weren't same when I am using it for professional purposes.
I hoped with Opera One, things would be different but it is same with a little bit of tweaks in design only where a lot of empty spaces are wasted and crashing as a feature.
Till now, Opera lacks or haven't brought in -
Support to sync installed extensions like chrome or brave or Vivaldi or Edge.
Vertical tabs (requested brave team since 2021 and they brought it in 2023 for final release and it works amazing).
Bookmark structuring and ordering where old bookmarks were on top and new went below but now post 90 version of opera, it is new on top and old at bottom without providing user any control or options to decide which way they want it but now is enforced by Opera.
Support for adding new search engines. Opera mobile has 10 search engines out of the box so it is great but when you go to desktop, it has only 3 and one cannot add any new search engine. I talked to a lot of team of search engines and they said, it is opera fault and you should ask Opera to allow you to do so. I even talked to a opera person and they said, they cannot allow another search engine due to lack of money and the money google gives cannot be cancelled (Opera is obviously oblivious to the fact that if you search through google search, google shows to use chrome and I dont know it is pretty easy to jump back to chrome with that popup, same goes with duckduckgo and bing).
Support for themes and coloring the browser. I used a lot of other lesser-known browsers like naver whale browser and cococo browser and maxthon browser and they all allow the above mentioned things and provide a color theming from their settings itself, if one doesnt want to install any new themes but opera, alas. Plus all of these browsers are constantly updated so no issues of outdated.
I know this post will not approved since Opera has already blocked on twitter and I have banned from this forum twice before but as a user since 2000, I deserve some respect and words.
I can use Opera but when others are providing me control over what I can do with my browser then why should I jump and stay with Opera when support is also not supportive?
@leocg No, not at all. I have only two devices until now and logged from those and re-logged into to check the issue but it doesn't resolve.
Use opera browser to block ads. Use Opera adblocker and block ads.
If I have to see ads then what harm does chrome doing to me? Chrome isnt crashing but opera does every few mins.
@leocg I have only one installation and two devices logged in. Nothing different.
Under "Your synchronized content", opera is showing wrong number of "Open tabs" which is 587. Actually I have checked manually, it is 80 on mobile and 10 on desktop. Dont know where the rest tabs are coming from. I have only two devices connected. The first is desktop and second is mobile. Can you guys see why it is showing this incorrect info?
Plus how to access passwords. I can easily access my passwords in chrome browser and Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft edge but not in opera despite being logged in and verified.
Plus I cant see my flow information here.
It is 2022 guys.
@jito463 They wont be doing anything. Wishful thinking is good. See opera GX twitter handle and you will what vulgar content they are promoting and talking about and not what they are for.
This feature should be inbuilt in opera since 1999 but it seems this are busy in redesigning to a point that is becoming useless and invisible,
@forestworker90 @justanotheruserleaving @bryanf37 take a look at this also using this too.
@justanotheruserleaving @bryanf37 I am using alongside edge, Cốc Cốc Browser. It is a from Vietnam and simple and easy to use. Should I share the link to download from their site?

@leocg Lol. In opera only. Using reading list of chrome and brave for past 3 months and no issues ever came up.
@forestworker90 I was looking into my installed apps and saw maxthon browser still installed. And it still works great.
Since I asked and you were telling me about features, maxthon has tons of them and if you talk to their small team, they happily add it. Requested some features and said it will come by December 2023.
Opera, on the other hand,
"we dont do that here."
Read this,
@leocg flow is underdeveloped, third-class feature that never worked whatsoever whenever I used it. Plus you dont understand the difference between flow and reading list.
If I have 3 vox articles to read and 2 youtube vids to watch later, then flow isnt to keep it safe for me to access it anywhere unlike reading list.
