The problem is quite obvious once you look at Bookmarks.html:

                  {
                     "date_added": "13229856088561651",
                     "guid": "3d27066e-a44a-45f1-90e3-…",
                     "id": "26670",
                     "name": "…",
                     "type": "url",
                     "url": "https://…"
                  }

There is a date_added but no date_modified. Only the folder have a date_modified. That way Opera only knows when a folder has been modified but not what has been changed inside the folder.

I have not seen and date_deleted at all which would explain why deleted entries reappear all the time.

I consider that a design error which are the hardest software errors to fix as you need to redo the design.

@burnout426

But that won't help in the long run because as soon as you switch sync on again your changes are reverted as well.

@burnout426 said in Changes in bookmarks are reverted after a while:

Are you using Opera Sync and syncing bookmarks?

Yes I'm using Opera Sync and changes are reverted all the time.

@wdburgdorf There will be no solution. Someone higher up decided that spash screen are cool and an important marketing instrument. So Opera keeps the spash screen no matter how much we hate it.

@andrew84 What is said in the notes and what actually happens are often not the same.

@proshor Has been removed but the outdated instructions are copy pasted over and over. Why @Zandocarl copy pasterd an instruction which doesn't work is beyond me. He says it himself:

Another way is this, but I tried and it didn't work

It just confuses those who miss the didn't work part.

@proshor Games. Games do that all the time. As such it's no surprise the offending program is called opera_gx_splash.exe — It's a feature from Opera GX gaming browser. Where it made sense. It makes absolutely no sense in an office Browser.

@vilivi Not possible. I hate the Opera GX splash screen. Not everybody want's every feature. There might be some features some users don't want at all.

@vilivi Well, Opera One is that one browser to rule them all. Sadly that was a very bad idea as we now have the Opera GX splash screen in an office environment.

The browsers should have stayed seperate.

@cardiobike13 It's intentional. It's part for merging the standard Browser, the crypto browser and the gaming browser into Opera One — one browser to rule them all.

Which might have been a mistake as office user and gaming user have different needs.

@perroflauta That only solves the problem until the next update. And Opera gets very frequent updates. Might have to set up a cron job to delete the file every hour or so.

@lyviq Yes, you are not the first. There are existing Theads. In fact the Admins moved your post to the relevant thread.

@leocg said in [Compilation]Discussions On How To Disable Splash Screen When Opening Opera One:

@jfuioenk There is no setting for it and the splash screen should show up only after an update.

Now I'm tempted to deactivate auto update.

@leocg said in [Compilation]Discussions On How To Disable Splash Screen When Opening Opera One:

@trifon81 It's not possible to disable it after an update.

What a pain.

@leocg said in [Compilation]Discussions On How To Disable Splash Screen When Opening Opera One:

@trifon81 What sound? I only see the splash screen and hear its sound after an update.

The very annoying Opera GX sound. Maybe unifying the browser was a mistake. I don't need the sound from a gaming browser in my office environment.

@gxsbgcrwd said in [Compilation]Discussions On How To Disable Splash Screen When Opening Opera One:

@trifon81 Easy setup -> Features -> Splash screen on startup (off).

I didn't find a splash screen option.

@matanarie Interesting. I had an even more strange ethical rejection:

https://forums.opera.com/topic/64618/deactivating-the-opera-splash-is-unethical

And asking a 2nd time actually worked better.

Apart from the comedic value this screen shot has: the only thing that is unethical here is here is censoring the AI. This quickly opens up the question of who decides what is ethical an what is not.

The internet is already full of screen shots of AIs answering or refusing to answer the same question depending sex or race involved.

Do you want Aria to join the list of sexist and racist AIs by unnecessary censorship?

@shodan-shodan Thanks. The Spash screen is very annoying. What did the product manager thing when they added that pain,

@m6v10 Thank you. Didn't know that's a macOS feature.
