tldr: Opera users should install RES from the Chrome Web Store.

Reddit Enhancement Suite updates will no longer be released through the Opera Adds-on Store starting with the next major RES release. To receive future updates, Opera browser users should install RES from the Chrome Web Store.

How to Install RES for Chrome in Opera

tldr: Export your data, disable RES for Opera, install RES for Chrome, import your data.

1. First, export or back up your data. You can use file or cloud backup.
2. After exporting your data, disable RES for Opera: view the "Show Extensions" page, find the box for Reddit Enhancement Suite, and click the "Disable" button.
3. Now you can install RES for Chrome!
4. Visit the RES release in the Chrome Web Store.
5. If this is your first time installing an extension from the Chrome Web Store, Opera will prompt you to add "Install Chrome Extensions" helper.
6. The important bit: [Add to Opera][https://imgur.com/4h2Bjrq)*, *OK, Install, yes, install …
7. okay, now it's installed.
8. You can visit https://www.reddit.com/ and check RES is upgraded.
9. Your browser should automatically download future updates.

If you see a big pink warning banner about "You have two versions of RES installed!" at the bottom of the page, you probably didn't disable RES for Opera. Go back to the Extensions page, find the older version of RES (with the lower number), and click the Disable button.

Why no more releases via Opera Add-ons?

In short, they're too slow. The Opera Extensions review process takes a long time and a lot of back and forth, even with their automatic approvals system. This isn't great for Opera users, especially with RES's frequent updates:

• Jan 17, 2019 - v5.14.0 was submitted - Awaiting Approval
• Jan 18, 2019 - v5.14.0 was rejected - Due to reviewer having an issue building the extension.
• Jan 18, 2019 - v5.14.1 was submitted - Awaiting Approval
• Jan 20, 2019 - v5.14.2 was submitted - Awaiting Approval
• Jan 24, 2019 - v5.14.3 was submitted - Awaiting Approval
• Jan 29, 2019 - v5.14.4 was submitted - Awaiting Approval
• Feb 09, 2019 - v5.14.5 was submitted - Awaiting Approval

Meanwhile, Chrome and Firefox approval releases instantly or within days.

We hope to release the last 5.14.x update via the Opera add-ons store. For future releases, Opera users are advised to install RES via the Chrome Web Store as detailed above.
