Hello. Since last month or so with the Opera GX 67, I realized that I was unable to use Discord voice chat because Discord web on Opera GX was stuck saying "RTC Connecting" and wouldn't allow me to neither speak nor hear the other person. I used Discord web on Opera for years without problems, and with Opera GX since its inception. I tried everything (deleted and did a clean reinstall of all my audio drivers, reset/reinstalled Opera Gx and tested without any extensions installed, ...) to fix it, but none of that worked.

Then I thought of switching to normal Opera (68), and the issue was resolved. Just because of this issue I abstained from using Opera GX and deleted it. I had to put up with the ugly and dysfunctional theme of the Opera (dark theme, the only other option besides the light theme), because of which I was having trouble discerning which tab was my current tab among many open tabs (dark gray on black is a really bad idea).

Anyhow, yesterday I realized with joy that the Opera GX was finally updated to version 68 and installed it right away and uninstalled the normal Opera. But what do I see, the problem is still there. I still can't use Discord web and I had to download the Discord app which I never wanted to use in the first place. I did this because I really can't stand the normal Opera, but you guys seriously need to find what is causing this problem with the Discord web on Opera and fix it as soon as possible since this is a major issue which has been going around for a month.

Thank you.

Music player was the spotlight feature of Opera 72, and after all the waiting (Opera went on to 72 a month ago, 73 last week and 74 going stable soon, you finally ported 72 to GX) 72 arrives but WITHOUT the music player?

How come? Can you at least tell us whether it will be implemented soon?

Update: Since I installed the same extensions on normal Opera and Discord web worked there, I wasn't suspicious of any add-ons, but after some tampering I found out that a particular setting in UBlock origin called "Prevent WebRTC from leaking local IP address" is causing this RTC problem. There is an explanation about that feature here: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Prevent-WebRTC-from-leaking-local-IP-address

Disabling this feature fixed the "RTC connecting" issue for me.

@leocg Same problem here, too. Some white parts of some websites are automatically rendered with forced dark mode, and the only way to read the text is to enable to force dark mode so the black text in black background becomes white text in black background. This is a massive bug, and I hope it gets fixed as soon as possible since it drastically hinders browsing experience.

It's been days since I posted this here and not a single comment or an acknowledgment. Even with the newest version I still cannot join any voice channels on any server on Discord Web using Opera GX. This is a serious problem that needs to be addressed as soon as possible. Just hearing that devs are aware of this issue and are working for a fix is enough. Isn't it a bit ironic that the gamer-oriented browser Opera GX can't be used with Discord while normal Opera runs Discord perfectly fine?

I also tried flushing and resetting my DNS, deleting and clean reinstalling my network device drivers, and relocating my server country on Discord. I basically tried every suggested solution I could find on the internet for this issue, however, nothing worked except for switching to the normal Opera browser (or switching to any other browser I guess).

@Rixxxy Thanks for the reply. I can assure you that the problem is not related to VPN since I never use it and still can't access Discord web.

Well, an acknowledgment before the update would be nice since it might take a long time for them to fix it.

This shouldn't be that much of a problem as long as no critical security issues or critical bugs present themselves, but Opera GX started crashing itself randomly and consistently after the last update, and no update is in sight.

I thought, with all the spotlight given to the GX by the Opera team, that GX would live on to be this glorious novel browser. Throwing a massive first birthday to the browser and then seemingly abandon it for months is just weird, extremely weird.

Hello. I used to occasionally visit instagram.com to check the stories and it used to work perfectly fine. But after the Opera GX 67 and 68 updates, when I click on the story I just get redirected to the profile of that person, and when I click on the story again, the same happens and all I've got is their Instagram profiles. So I'm unable to view any Instagram story using Opera GX.

I waited more than a month to post this, thinking this must have to do something on my end, so I did a fresh install and tried it without any extensions, etc. but nothing fixed this issue. My hopes went up when I saw GX 68 integrated Instagram on the sidebar, but this erratic behavior happens there just the same.

To make clear how weird this issue is, I just realized that I was able to click on Instagram live feeds and view them (although they keep automatically scrolling down a bit for some reason). Also, when I view a profile, the older stories they saved as "Highlights" can be clicked and viewed without any issue, but the current story they have is basically unclickable since it just redirects to their Instagram profile.

I hope this issue gets recognized and fixed soon. Thank you.

@unbeknownst Update: It seems the issue is resolved by itself. Very weird, might also due to Windows 11. Yesterday there was a weekly release preview update and this issue wasn't resolved after that, but today it works fine.

Hello. Today, all of a sudden and even though I did not install any new extensions or changed any settings, my mouse cursor started to disappear while hovering on YouTube videos. I concluded that it must be because of the newest 78.0.4093.214 update I installed yesterday, so I reverted back to the 78.0.4093.186, but the problem persisted.

I tried the same videos on Edge, and all work fine. I disabled all my extensions and tried again, but it didn't fix the problem. Any ideas how to fix this?

Update: This issue is still not resolved in the latest GX 75.0.3969.279. It's getting more absurd every day to see that this add-in, crashing the browser, is allowed to roam free like this.

@unbeknownst This issue continues after the latest GX update. It keeps crashing the GX and when my setting is to reopen the pages after exit, it crashes the browser again until GX says all the extensions are disabled, then I try again and it still crashes. Either get rid of this intrusive add on or pay the minimum attention to it so it won't crash your browser.

When I browse Amazon pages, the annoying assistant add-in asks me to install, which it always did for over a year, but with the latest GX 75, clicking "Don't Show This Again" crashes my GX and causes me to lose all my progress. And then when I visit Amazon again, same thing all over. Urgent fix needed.

@quik Who are "we"? You don't seem to have any official role on the forums. GX 75 works more than fine for me, better than the 73.

@leocg

@leocg I already posted the build version in my post, it's Opera GX 75.0.3969.231.

Hello. Since I obsessively check the get opera ftp server, I found a GX version 75, uploaded on late April 22nd, I thankfully downloaded and saved it and been using it for two days now. No announcement was made for this, no changelog either, and now when I check the ftp server, GX 75 is gone.

My GX version is 75.0.3969.231, and I think the public needs an explanation as to why the 75 version disappeared. As the GX was always 1 or 2 versions behind the main Opera, it was great to finally have version parity, but now it's taken away again. Why?

Upon updating to the version 73, my GX started microstuttering and freezing when I'm browsing with multiple tabs open or using the WhatsApp sidebar. Anyone else suffering performance problems after switching to v73?
