Everytime I open Opera for the first time when turning on my laptop, it freezes for a few seconds and says speed dial (not responding) at the top left portion of the white washed screen. Any idea how to fix this?

I do not know if the opera team actually cares about their absolutely ineffective adblocker but I am bringing this back up again.

The native opera adblocker for android is significantly weak compared to well-known adblocker such as Adguard and uBlock. It cannot even block ads that forcibly opens new tabs and some pop-ups. I do not understand why integration of these extensions somehow is still not introduced (unless there are some data collecting and data sharing business that will be hampered once the adblocker is improved).

It is such a shame that this very important and popular feature is something that the developers are continuously choosing to ignore given that multiple updates have passed but the native adblocker still remains pathetic.

Currently, the only available method to allow bing chat on opera is to go to bing, inspect the page, and manually change the user-agent string. However, this is very inconvenient as the inspect page window needs to be open at all times in order for the bing chat to remain. Is there any other way to do this?

I have tried many user-agent changing extensions but nothing works.

It is already 2023 and Opera for android still doesn't support extensions. This is literally the only missing feature for Opera compared to its competitors.

@leocg thank you! why is this feature hidden?

One feature that I noticed on browsers like Edge and Vivaldi is that they allow users to add sites on their sidebar. This is somehow not offered by Opera which limits their users only to pre-added sites that we can just disable/enable. This feature is one of the best personalization options which I hope Opera will offer on their succeeding updates.
