Youtube videos actually look good with Lucid Mode in most cases, but photos and images, the sharpening is so ridiculously extreme, it just makes looking images painful. It's like applying 100% luma sharpening effect in Photoshop on a photo, saving it and then applying 100% luma sharpen on it again. It's just white oversharpening edges everywhere. Intensity slider would be preferred for both, video and images, but if it has to be fixed value, it seriously needs to be toned down for images.
I'm not quite sure why Opera Mobile has a dedicated feature to block cookie banners, but for some reason desktop version doesn't. On top of that, it doesn't even have "I don't care about cookies" list as selection. Vivaldi for example does, but Opera doesn't for god knows what reason.
Would be really nice if "I don't care cookies" list was just there in the list of available filters and you could just select it without having to hunt down its URL and manually add it to the list.
@leocg So, why it can't "co-exist" on iOS too? And don't tell me same lame excuses how iOS browsers aren't really whatever they are elsewhere. I don't know why Firefox can perfectly sync stuff. And how Opera could with Opera Mini before they sacked it. Or how Chrome, Edge and to some degree Brave (buggy but it has sync).
@leocg I don't use it for anything because it's useless trash. The fact that Flow came in and Sync was dropped, don't you think that means Flow replaced Sync? What kind of weird logic you're even applying here? Jesus...
@leocg Yet it replaced it because Opera Mini had Sync and it's gone and now all we have is useless pointless Flow.
@leocg Yes it is when garbage useless Flow is still around and Sync isn't. It's because of this change that I had to stop using Opera because if I can't sync bookmarks with Opera on my iPhone, then there is no point in using it on desktop either. Great job Opera! It's been like this for years now and it makes no sense. Instead of expanding reasons for people to use their browser they cut a portion of users who depend on sync. Again, great job Opera!
@leocg That's BS and you know it. Then why was superior Opera Mini with Sync replaced with garbage a** Opera Touch without sync, but has the useless Flow? What else is that than Flow replacing Sync? Also why the hell would you need "something to quickly share something between phone and desktop"? If you're sharing it from a phone, that means you're not actually near a computer, otherwise you'd be doing it on a computer in the first place. And it can't be "oh I did something on a phone and want to put it on PC now". Sync does that without you having to explicitly "send" something through stupid Flow which is just a glorified messenger where you can essentially only chat with yourself. Most useless thing I've ever seen ever and they killed other stuff in favor of this trash.
Flow is absolute worthless garbage and I don't understand why Opera is emphasizing it in all versions while stripping away Sync. Opera on iOS had syncing of bookmarks in Opera Mini. And got replaced with Opera Touch trash that they later just renamed to Opera Browser. Flow is like a dumber, more limited version of Sync. I want bookmarks to be synced and effectively, by doing so they made Opera as whole useless to me as an iOS user. Why? You had a functioning sync and you removed it Opera. Why?! I'm basically forced to use Firefox because it's at least not stupid and has a functioning sync on all devices. Heh.
@hex1984: A must have for what? What can Flow possibly do that full fat Sync can't? Also at which point I said Flow should be taken away? Opera desktop has Flow and Sync. iOS Opera only has Flow. After it had Sync and they just removed it by sacking Opera Mini. Every time anyone suggests anything you all jump in defense like we're planning on taking candy from babies. Not having bookmarks with you at all times is one of most annoying things ever. It defeats the purpose of browser on multiple devices.
Why this pushing of useless Flow function instead of giving us proper bookmarks sync? Seriously? The Flow thing is Useless when browser sync does the same and much more because you can have same bookmakrs on all devices. Sync is just an overglorified memo. Useless.
Would be nice if anyone put any kind of effort into Opera Touch for iOS instead of stuff like this... You know, adding stuff like I don't know... Opera Sync to Opera Touch? Everyone is asking for that and nothing. No one asked for media players and here they are. Ugh.
Unless you're on iOS in which case it's big FU. No normal Opera, no Opera Mini, nothing. We're stuck with useless Opera Touch that doesn't even have any kind of syncing capability just useless MyFlow which serves god knows what purpose. Sending instant messages to yourself so you read what you already know. But can't get that bookmark you need from home because it doesn't work both ways, but does with syncing. Heh. Even though we had it in Opera Mini for iOS like century ago...
Why aren't we getting summary news posts about big releases anymore? It's version 68 now and I'd like to know what 69 will bring. And all we seem to get are detailed beta logs of every tiny changes I'm not interested in at all. But I'd like to know what I should be excited about in Opera 69 or 70 further down the update trail.
It's Incredibly annoying. All the default exclusions have re-added themselves 4 times now and I've just installed Opera 2 days ago. Like, wtf are you doing. If I removed the damn exclusions, I removed them with reason. Now I keep opening the damn panel every day like some imbecile because I don't want them there, but I'm never sure if what i do will actually stick. And from the looks of it, it doesn't stick. It literally has mind of its own.
Why is Opera constantly re-adding bloody adblocking exclusions? You remove them, do a sync with another system and exclusions are there again. And they often just randomly without your knowledge appear there again. Stop doing this!
How come Opera, the innovator of video pop-out feature is the only browser that doesn't support popping out Netflix video? Firefox supports it, Vivaldi supports it, just Opera doesn't for some weird reason. What's going on here?
I'd prefer if you'd just do bloody something with Opera Touch on iOS and add it freaking bookmarks syncing instead of fiddling with Opera GX which no one ever really asked for...
Opera Touch for iOS getting Syncing should be top priority. I can't even use bloody Opera anywhere because it syncs nothing with my other systems, rendering it entirely useless. That thing to send links and notes is entirely useless and pointless. Opera Mini for iOS that had Syncing but got sacked so now I'm left with nothing on iPhone. I used to really like Opera and it was one of first browsers to have syncing back in Presto days. Now I can't even use it. Wasted potential.
What the hell is going on with Bitwarden addon/extension? Developer updated it and submitted it basically 1 year ago and it's still stuck with stupid broken version from March 2019. The version that keeps on spawning stupid extensions bar if you have it set to unlock it with PIN. And every time you unlock with PIN, extensions sidebar appears in Opera. And of course absolute silence from Opera devs/maintainers. You can use the one from Chrome store, but I find it idiotic having to use another extension to use Chrome store and install addon Opera refuses to update while hosting it itself. I just don't get it. Either do it properly and update shit people submit to you or stop bothering entirely. Doing some half ass job like this is not helping you gain users...

@diezi: I've contacted Opera support about it and they've forwarded the issue to appropriate team, lets see when they'll update it now...
