With the prevalence of AI searches with current search engines give hundreds of results from one or two websites. Opera Browser for Android does not have a setting to exclude, i.e. blacklist websites currently.
Here is a workaround: If you add Google Keyboard as an additional keyboard you can eliminate typing your excluded websites all the time.
First install Gboard, then go into your System Settings, then Languages. Click on Gboard until you arrive at the Gboard settings. Go down to Dictionary, then Personal Dictionary. Add an item by clicking the +. An example would be to exclude Reddit.com and Quora.com from your search results. Enter -reddit.com -quora.com and under the shortcut enter xxx. Exit the settings. Now enter a search in Google Search. At the end of the search enter xxx or -r and the phrase should autofill saving you typing and giving you the search results you want.

Autofill Suggestions CleanupOpera for Android
Under the Privacy Cleanup it lists Autofill and Suggestions. If I select that, it deletes the Autofill addresses I have created. How do I delete the Suggestions but leave the Addresses intact?

Poor VPN Access from Asia to AmericaOpera for computers
I am currently in Asia. If I use Opera VPN to connect to Asia or Europe the connection speed is around 25 MPS. If I try to connect to America the speed is less than 200 KPS(.2 MPS). What is going on?

RE: Logged in, but unable to sync bookmarks.Opera for Android
@neetesha I was only able to see the pre-installed bookmarks after installing Android Opera.
I uninstalled the app, and shut down and restarted the phone. I logged out of the desktop app and reinstalled the Android app. This installation deleted all of the sync items from the sync server but was a "clean" install.
After 3 log in attempts, I finally was able to successfully log in and sync the account. It then took about 15 minutes for the bookmarks to appear on my Android phone. The history and opened tabs did not sync. -
Logged in, but unable to sync bookmarks.Opera for Android
I am logged in to my Android application but my bookmarks will not sync. Opera Desktop works fine. Logging out and logging in does not resolve the syncing problem. This only started after the last update. Uninstalling and reinstalling the app also did not resolve the problem. Any suggestions?

RE: Changes in vpn.Opera for Windows
Yes.. VPN is totally hosed! If you look at the VPN selection, you will see "Americas", "Asia", and "Europe". Upon checking the IP address you will see that the IP address for "Amerika" is located in Ecuador... Now that is a brilliant decision on the part of the Opera Developers! You put yourself well beyond the machinations of President Trump but defeat the whole purpose of VPN accessibility.. Way to go.. NOT!
