Please do remove this stupid funvtion or atleast make an option to disable it. Nobody cares about celebrity serch phrases. Do mot force this sh.t on users

Looks like it is really time to move from opera. First you f.-ed up opera mini with the same thing and with ads, now the same fate comes to the original opera browser. I think it is time to use only firefox. There are no words to describe how idiotic changes were made to all the browsers you develop.

So there is really nobody else that thinks this feature is annoying as hell????? Everyone likes yellow press news and idiotic recommended gossip subjects...

There are so many things opera lacks. Like password sync. Also there are some pages where opera does not give the option to save auth. data after logging in.
Yet opera always manage to come up with some highly unwanted, cheap ass bullsh#t.
Just like trending searches, popping up ads in opera mini after starting the app, importing speed dials only one by one in the main android app...
Why is it so hard to focus on important things?

Since opera dumped presto (2013 if i am not wrong) opera for android has a hard time when it comes to password management.
On my android one device the stable opera is unable to save password on the login page of it's own forum....
Also there are numerous other websites where opera simply does not offer the "Save password?" option after hitting the login button.
God have mercy on your soul if you have to make a hard reset on your phone, after restoring opera, you have to login to your favourite sites one-by-one to make opera remember the passwords.
(of course only after you have imported all the speed dial "icons" ONE BY ONE, since only opera mini has the "import all" speeddial feature)
Probably this is the only mainstream browser app on play store that is unable to provide password management for five years. It is more than pathetic, that this is an issue in 2018.
So, i do not think that anyone should have high expectations about this topic, better clap your hands for more important developments like permanently shown search history and suggested search topics for this is opera only capable of since years and at the moment.

@neetesha WHY CANT you do this at first attempt?

@leocg said in Do not save search history:

hijack

Hijack? The topic is already about the annoying existence of search history under the search/adress bar... There is nothing to hijack. Also I only reflected on Opera's notorious development practice: to shock the community with useless "dog and pony show" features, make them suffer with it for monts, after that make an option to disable it. No matter where i post this, some zealous mods will always fint this as an offence against the forum community and devs.
