★☆☆☆☆ Abhishek Singha · 5 Oct 2026 · v14.3.2254.84549What's the point of adding full screen ads after reading every 2-3 articles? Just add ads within the app as a pop up. I couldn't wait for a minute after reading each article so that the ads get completed.Developer reply · 5 Oct 2026Hello Abhishek,It's clear that the frequent full-screen ads are disrupting your reading experience, and we appreciate you sharing your thoughts on this. We are checking into this issue, as your feedback is valuable in helping us understand user preferences better. Regards, The Opera Team.
