I'd find it useful if it were possible to automatically turn off vpn when connecting to user-selected sites. For some it can be a real pain if you accidentally connect using VPN and then have to go through 2 factor authentication or reset your password because it looks like you are in another country. E.g. Google, Amazon.

Cheers! Merry Christmas!

Yes - this little bug is surprisingly annoying if you are used to the address bar having focus - you type something in, but when you check there's nothing there.

Hi - I have a couple of laptops and a opera mobile Android that I am trying to sync. So far the bookmarks from the two laptops are available from each other. Where would I expect to see the history from other devices - when I look under history on one of the devices, I just see the browsing history of the that device.

Thanks

The Disable HTML Autoplay extension doesn't seem to work with adblock enabled. It would be good if this feature was a part of Opera.

Jeez - I wish this was fixed (having once again closed a tab that I thought was the one I had just finished reading, but turned out to be another one).

@jamesconstance I get a popup saying "opera doesn't support chromium theme format." How did you get round this?

I used Brave browser

@leocg thanks - it was set as ask before accessing.

I've got a pop up on google regarding geolocation - the two options are "Accept and enable geolocation" and "Ask me later". I'm just wondering where the "No thank you - don't ask again" option is?

@rugby Yes, and you'd expect only to have press the button once. Clearly, Opera is not remembering or occasionally resetting my preference.

Dear Opera - stop snoozing my tabs!

@newworldman I do have the i dont care about cookies extension installed, but still find I'm getting pop ups for most sites. I delete cookies on browser exit so it is particularly noticeable.

I find the main annoyance when browsing the internet nowadays are just about any form of pop up or float over window - especially accept cookie pop ups, sign up for newsletter type things, or those floating videos that follow you down the page on some news sites.

If Opera could come up with a means of dealing with these, that would be a killer feature IMO - putting users back in control of what they see.

Thanks

Agree.

I quite like this high contast theme from the chrome web store - it uses a different colour for the selected tab :https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/high-contrast-colorful/cdfdkmklcjlnnnlnplffpdiekfhkpbme

It seems to me there should be a permission we can set that can prevent an extension from sending data to any website: without this many extensions can harvest our data and compromise our privacy.

Why is this permission not a standard obvious thing to include do you think?
