Opera Browser

It used to be the best browser around. Now it's a shitty clone of Chrome. Don't use it.

Bought out by Chinese malware firm.
Nobody uses it because Chrome took over, most people probably don't know it exists.
It's nicer to use and has some nicer features than Google chrome but still botnet.
Use it if you want.

Used it a month back

This.

I used to use it religiously, but they got rid of 95% of the functionality while still somehow making it use more resources.

Right now, it's basically Chrome with mouse gestures.

Presto forever. Chropera is better than Chrome though,

I would be using Chrome, but it won't scale to 125% on Win. Same with Vivaldi.

How's Edge doing? I haven't used it. It just seems to be IE with a drawing feature.

After opera 12, they stopped using their own rendering engine and started using what's in Chrome or chromium. They removed all of the functionality and customizability that made opera good, despite telling users there will be no changes smart from the engine. Heck, it took months to get bookmarks back.

As of now it has no extensions so I keep seeing ads and shit but it's been pretty light with my memory. Some of the tab previews aren't in real-time so that's shit.

Runs pretty good for most of the part but I keep encountering this issue where it doesn't save my cookies sometimes.

Overall 6/10, but still gonna use it for a week more or two

I also used IE as my main browser when I was running Windows 8/8.1

Sad to say that the "modern" IE browser on Windows 8/8.1 was less prone to errors than Edge on Windows 10.

IE is still included with Win10 for legacy support. You could always go back.

I mean the "modern" IE is now gone. For some reason I've grown a soft spot for the fullscreen IE app but still used Firefox (then Chrome) nonetheless.

It's free, it's not like you can't try it.

It's an anagram for penis (if you drop the ra and the O and then add nis to the end of pe). It also gave me mono and syphilis. And also crabs.

I don't like how it handles bookmarks, you have to choose an image from the site when you add it. Most images are just nonsense and you can't use your own.
Also it isn't playing videos from a pornsite I use anymore, I don't know why.
