RE: News ProviderOpera for Windows
Is it possible to remove some of the news providers (feeds) from 'My Sources'?
For example, one provider is The Telegraph, and this almost always appears at the top of the news articles, but this is a paid for service, so very annoying to click on the article to read it, only for the website not to display the article. -
RE: Hello Chrome - Opera too laggyOpera for Windows
I have the newsfeed (which I have set to auto prune every month - I will reduce this now) and the gmail extensions.
No, I have not played with flags, afaik.I like the continue where I left off feature.
Bit of a pain this, but at least I know where to "fix" it now. -
RE: Hello Chrome - Opera too laggyOpera for Windows
Ok, so all was working fine, but the lagging has started again. Not too bad at the moment, but slowly getting worse.
Not nearly the 3-5 seconds first reported, but from zero it has increased to about 1/4 sec in two weeks.
So will I need to regularly delete the session files, any why??? -

Ditto, same problem, except my lags are about 3-5 seconds long every 20-30 seconds. Opera is now impossible to use.

Hello Chrome - Opera too laggyOpera for Windows
After about 4 months of a slow very very laggy Opera I can't handle the frustration anymore and I'm now using Chrome.
Opera is a great browser, but it's impossible to use anymore.Every 20 seconds or so it just STOPS responding for 3-5 seconds, then works again until the next 20 seconds are up and stops and so and and so on. Scrolling, typing text, video clips, opening tabs, everything, it just stops.
I've been using Opera for many years and even survived the shock from 12 to 20, but no more until this problem is sorted out.

RE: Opera 20 - Another unhappy loyal supporterOpera for Windows
It's true that we need to know what each user really want since there may be a way to get it, but, personally, I think customization in the abstract is an actual feature.
Forget all the specific features I listed, the first thing I want in a web browser is the ability to set it up the way I want and find the most efficient. It's the reason I stuck with opera for all those years(since just before it became free, v3 I think it was) even though it always had the worst compatibility of all browsers with website since many of them even went as far as blocking it even though it worked fine. It's also the reason I'm still using v12 and will keep using it most likely until I have no choice but to stop even though I know the security is probably very lacking and many website I frequent do not work properly with it.
I simply want to have a choice in which features to activate or deactivate, whatever it may be or where to put it on the interface so it best suit my needs or how it should react when I do a specific action or being able to manipulate and store links however I prefer. Simply(well, I know it's really not that simple to achieve in real life) being able to do all that(and loading webpages properly) would make it my perfect browser, even with no other extra features.
Personally, I couldn't care less if it load webpages a couple of seconds faster or if it has a nicely looking interface, as long as I can use it in a way I'm comfortable with.
Edit: Yes, I saw the sessions extension too, I haven't installed it though because I don't need it for the very little usage of v20 I do since it doesn't meet my basic needs yet.
As for the new speed dial, it's not a bad thing at least, but it's not good either in my opinion so I do agree to disagree with you on that.
In a perfect world, I would also like to use the product with a development future, but since it's not usable enough for me, I simply can't, it's not even a choice.+1
Especially the comments about choice and speed.
