@leocg I found that myself, after losing almost half an hour in unsuccessful attempts.

@burnout426 I have actually tried that, but it didn't work. Not sure why.

So the actual workaround is - disable dark mode, connect phone, enable dark mode.

@quicksite But I suppose your reply is very helpful, arguments full and strictly related to the topic. Oh wait...

First of all, I am not member of the Opera team, nor I am related to the software in any way (has to be repeated for the slow ones obviously). I was simply explaining my point of view, and explained it in details whatsoever. So I am also a user posting about a request that conflicts with others' request. What is the rule of User Experience Design that solves this problem? And could you please explain how the sentence I find it hard to grasp that user case turned into why would you ever want to do that? in your twisted mind?

Your lousy attempt of being a psychologist is funny as well. It's nicely wrapped packet of insults with fallacies instead of arguments. It's summed in one word - projection.

Is there a way to access My Flow except from the sidebar?

I do not want sidebar to be visible, I do not find the way to at least have it auto-hidden (which would be a bad, but a workaround) and right click on empty part of the page and selecting My Flow seems to have a bug (does not display anything if (again) sidebar is hidden).

Steps:

1. enable Audo Dark Mode for Web Contents on pc using chrome://flags (Linux KDE Manjaro, but I don't think that does matter, with Opera 84.0.4316.14 stable installed)
2. try to use MyFlow by connecting phone
   Scanning QR code does not work.

It's not that the QR code in general is bad, I've tried with a different app and it works, it's Opera on Android that has difficulties connecting/reading.

@neoseo I find it hard to grasp that use case, but ok. Is there any other browser that suites? As far as I know, none of the 98% market share.

@Atemporaryson The amount of time necessary to simply select all the speed dials and copy to another device is roughly ~ 30 seconds (including starting the browser and going to bookmarks link). I'm talking about using actual PC, since neither Google Chrome nor Firefox offer sync across Android devices, for instance. How often do you actually change PC/laptop? Is it really possible that this (let it be) minute means so much to you?

Let's say you are the project manager in Opera dev team, and that I am your superior. Please elaborate (with actual arguments for a change, spare me the beliefs and thoughts) on why this feature should be implemented.

@ar7ur3k Well if you had actually read the thread, you would have noticed that not everyone see a problem there.

*from my point of view

@btabke

I don't buy at all "everyone wants different speed dials on every device". That's bs. Nobody does..

Only ones EVER in this forum that want separate speed dials are Moderators and Opera Software employees. No one - zero, nada, nobody wants different ones.

I do. And I am not part of Opera software in any way. But I suppose that it was too much of a trouble to read the whole thread. I guess you are too busy and too important.

What's the real story here? Is this too big of an issue for Opera Soft to program ? 800 billion options in opera and they can't program the #1 request by users of all time?

Where is this a #1 request?

Speed dials are start page bookmarks and they should be in sync with anything sync'ing them.

What are "start page bookmarks"? Could you point to the definition? Should be sync? Says who?

If not - there should be an option. and given Opera's history of "more options the better", the only thing to think, is there must be some weird programming barrier or laziness that keeps them from giving the users the #1 request since speed dials were put in the software.

You have a folder within the bookmarks? What else do you want? Too lazy to copy a couple of tiles? Or you have a weird psychological barrier to do that? Maybe learned that mummy needs to do everything for you?

I don't want that behavior and I think it is a disaster. Making speed dial synced as a separate option would be the only acceptable solution, for my point of view.

Is Opera going to get a webspeech api support in the future?

Strange things happen with sites that have this speech recognition - on Windows there are buttons (as if feature was supported) but they don't work, on Linux there is nothing.
