Man, I remember when Opera was a good non-Chromium browser. The times…
I don’t understand what Opera brings to the table now except random desperation.
If I want a Chromium browser with the spirit of Opera v12, I’ll use Vivaldi. If I want something skeevy and weird, I’ll use Edge. If I want to debug a stupid website, I’ll use Chrome.
I remember when you could edit files in an editor to make the UI whatever you want. Add your bookmarks menu the the context menu, add a “save session” button to your toolbar.
It was truly customizable.
There used to be the ability to open a link into multiple tabs that would mimic multiple browsers as well as IE versions back to 6.
Opera WAS the best browser to develop in.
Not anymore.
Reminder that, according to a solid seeming report from the leeches at Hindenburg Research, Opera’s owners are fucking loansharks.
