It would be really great if you guys can add Qwant to the default search engines list. I've been using it pretty regularly for the past 2 weeks and it's actually really good (also privacy is a huge plus, because they have to respect EU laws, just like Opera).

There are two options now, you can install their extension or add Qwant to the "other search engines" list, but then you have to use a keyword. Purely anecdotal, of course, but I've seen more and more people using Qwant. Can you please add it?

+1 from me, would be extremely useful.

@burnout426 ah, I thought you're talking about this icon:

Oh wow, the beta version looks really bad, hopefully they won't push it like that to the stable channel. @jfHicter is right, that is way too much wasted space.

@zalex108 thank you, but if it doesn't work for speed dial, then is almost useless to me.

Pin GX to taskbar, start GX, close it - the pinned icon is gone.

@jfhicter

What if you simply shorten some of the folder names?

administration > admin
computer > comp
za facebook > za fb

Done, you'll have plenty of space left.

So...

Qwant is now the default search engine for Brave browser in France and Germany. Can we finally get an option to set is as default in Opera? It's a great search engine that respects our privacy and if I can't use it in Opera, I'll be forced to switch to Brave (and I really don't want that, I love Opera).

Go to settings > shortcuts > configure shortcuts

Find "back", click "type a shortcut", press backspace, done.

@unkoew thank you

@max1c: the new default wallpapers are so ugly. I'm gonna install an older version and extract those wallpapers.

Edit: never mind, they're gonna add them to the opera add-ons store.

@vfbfan: I really want to know the meaning of that.

@davidos: yeah same.

@elspivo: so I'm not the only one, nice. Closing the browser fixes the problem for a short time. Hopefully they're gonna fix this soon, it's so annoying.

@burnout426 ah, I thought you're talking about this icon:

@burnout426: Where can I turn it off? I don't need it because of the CPU, I simply find that icon annoying. I've searched the settings and flags and can't find it.

Looks really good, I love it. Just please give the option to use the wallpapers from https://addons.opera.com/en/wallpapers/

Sorry, I can't edit my previous message. Just a thought, this new panel style would be amazing for downloads. Hopefully, that is your plan

@kmielczarczyk: I really like the new bookmarks and history panels, would it be possible to make them as default (at least as an option, even a flag would be great)? For example, when I press ctrl + h, I open a panel instead of a new tab with history. Also, pressing escape key should close the side panel. If you guys can pull this off, I will love you forever

I switched to Edge Dev a few weeks ago and I'm not planning to come back to Opera. The only thing I kinda miss is Opera's speed dial, but whatever.
