Why are you not using Opera, Jow Forums?
I tried it but didn't like the UI.
>chink botnet
hard pass
Because botnet is botnet. My data being leaked to the chinks is better than it being leaked to amerimutts, but that mean it's good.
I used it as my main browser from 2014 to 2016 when I was still a winbaby who thought le features are what make software good.
>>unmatched native video pop-out feature
Unmatched is a lie, it's beaten painfully by youtube-dl + MPV
Though, the rest of the features you listed are pretty nice, I'll admit I miss them.
I kinda wish I could get rid of the top left menu button and set any color I like, but it's not that important to me. The quality of life features make up for it imo.
>Unmatched is a lie, it's beaten painfully by youtube-dl + MPV
But if you're a Youtube addict like me then you don't wanna miss out on the end screen.
>features aren't what makes software good
Please elaborate and tell me which browser you use.
In Firefox I used to be able to right click "open with MPV" but not anymore
>>unmatched native video pop-out feature
vivaldi has it :^)
I used that chromium clone for months so you ain't fooling me (((((^:
also
>remembers your 134+ tabs but keeps them out of memory till you decide to click on them
quick reboots shaves off RAM on shit I've yet to read
unironically, I want to see proof of this
that it is 100% going to chinks for peace of mind

Since v2.2 (December 13, 2018) apparently.
Holy shit, you weren't lying hah. This potentially changes everything, I might not have to reluctantly shill Opera any more.
Apparently it's a native Chromium feature now??? Cool.
Fair. Good channel taste desu.
Being as specific as I should have been, I meant by features things like what OP was saying: auto-translators, video pop-outs, fancy browser home screens, etc. I meant that software is good also with the "non-tool" things like stability, lack of telemetry, performance, etc.
I can see how the latter stuffs could be considered features, though. Sorry for being ambiguous.
I use Ungoogled Chromium because browsers lacking a Chromium base always have noticeable input lag with my DE, KDE. I'm actually going to bust out my camera and record the difference between scrolling through Icecat and Ungoogled Chromium to prove it at some point.
Ungoogled Chromium and GNU Icecat rank even for me, the only differences between them that matter to me are that extensions are much easier to install on Icecat, where as Ungulaged Chromium performs better.
Jow Forums tends to hate this website for reasons I'm never sure of, but it might help: spyware.neocities.org
Whats Jow Forums approved browser?
Google Chrome
I still use them
>botnet!!!111
I love Opera.
I don't care that much about privacy when it comes to me browsing Mongolian basket weaving family forum. Even if they fingerprint me it doesn't matter I have no e-identity or social shit from IRL.
If I want to go full HaXoRMaN or get some sweet cheese pizza etc I easily may switch to Linux on another pc/laptop.
Install Vivaldi instead.
What can you actually do with the damn thing anyway?
Email, wikipedia, quick tweet, that kinda thing. I also used to browse and post comments on forums using dumbphones as well.
>converts timezones to your local zone when you highlight
>converts currencies to your local currency when you highlight
>search/copy menu pops out automatically when you highlight regular text
This sounds exhaustingly annoying.
>no gay ass download bar taking up screen space like in chromium
Finally. If only it weren't spyware this would be the only usable blink browser.
Based. Dumbphones are the real smartphones. I'm gonna revive mine when this """smart"""phone I currently have dies.
I think I'll go back to using it for a while.

Yeah, I just tried it in, may Allah forgive me for uttering this word, Brave.
我想知道这篇文章背后是谁
Yes! Opera Very Good! 给你我们你愚蠢的白狗数据
No thx. It's all the same shit now Google Chrome, Chromium, Edge, Opera, Samsung browser. All the same shit.
Best browser, desu. Have been using it for more than a decade (except for when they removed presto, and I switched to Firefox for a while).
IceCat
I also boycotted it for a little while during the Presto change, otherwise it's been my go-to browser over the years too.
>ill update my desktop version soon i promise
Im using Vivaldi, the true Opera browser. I only use opera on my phone
>search/copy menu pops out automatically when you highlight regular text
>not using shortcuts
>Why are you not using Opera, Jow Forums?
Because it died half a decade ago
Wrong. It died some months ago, ever since then you cannot download Opera anymore. Instead, you download a 1MB web installer for Opera.
Why does that matter? Because before that, you could launch Opera and restrict it from accessing any servers from Opera Inc. itself - i.e. you could circumvent the botnet part of Opera. And when a new version came out, you simply downloaded the new one, replaced the old binary with the new one and proceeded as usual. The local data stayed local. Now, to get the newer versions, you have to enable Opera to communicate back home and that includes all the metadata used for spying on you and becoming botnet. And as you cannot export all preferences from Opera, that isn't a possible solution.
Greedy bastards will be greedy bastards. Especially when it comes to free shit, which Opera is.
No, it died when they dropped Presto. That was 2012 or 2013.
chromium based Chinese botnet
Vivaldi
Here's the link to where they announced it:
blogs.opera.com
(DNA-72108, DNA-71956, DNA-72091, DNA-71121, most radical one:: DNA-73835)
Very prominent.
Presto isn't completely dropped.
The last two updates were Windows-only and the latest, 12.18, is two weeks shy of being 3 years old.
That's odd, I'm using a version from December 20th, 2018.
I miss old Opera. What precautions would I need to take to make it safe for modern browsing? Are there any security addons being updated?
Show me your about:opera page.
I don't know if anything's stull updated for it. I used Scriptweeder as a script blocker when I used it. I'd also sandbox the whole browser if I were you.
Okay, show me the source code so I can compile it.
Give me somewhere to upload it
Github.
>putting leaked source code on Github
That didn't play out too well last time.
>leaked
Why would it have to be leaked? All source code should be freely available.
>why would a closed source program's source code have to be leaked
Why would you use a browser that isn't free?
Because I'm not a freetard
That isn't valid reasoning.
Yes it is. I don't let my ability to view a program's source code prevent me from using it. If it's better than an open sauce program, it's better and I'm going to use it.
It's only free if you don't value your time.
So why do you trust them? Just blind faith?
*bows* arigato, sensei
>So why do you trust them? Just blind faith?
I don't trust anyone
You clearly do, you trust the developers of your non-free web browser.
Using it doesn't mean I trust the devs, it just means I use it.
No, you are putting faith in them whether you think so or not.
What is the absolute worst thing that could happen to me if I use a non-free web browser?
Whatever you say, freetard.
With how he's acting it must kill your family or something
Execution, I imagine.
>Show me your about:opera page.
That redirects to about:blank (which I wasn't aware of).
User agent string says Presto/2.12.423 Version/12.16
Glad I could help you.
I love that guy.

I figured you were lying.
I've got 7108 unique (deduped by hash as well as well with image recognition) variations of pepe and there is no end in sight.
Just because you can't believe something, doesn't mean the messenger is a liar.
If the messenger can't provide a simple link that'd allow me to verify his claims then I have no reason to believe him.
The messenger would help niggers that is talking about and the messenger doesn't want to do that.
Either you're in the cool club or you're not. There's no in between, redditor.
this is why it will never compete with chrome, the user is overloaded with UI on first launch
All I see is you prancing around admitting you're lying
And now what?
See for yourself how far insulting will bring you in life.
And now I'll continue using Firefox (like you probably are too) because Opera died long ago.
Wait what the fuck how'd you put apps on that
t. Nokia 105
does it have vertical tabs tho?
Yeah there are a couple of extensions that do this
It has a built-in ad blocker unlike actual Google Chrome which is about to block ad blockers other than being a little bit glitchy with YouTube and not allowing me to use voice recognition it uses less RAM and does everything my Google Chrome browser ever did
It's most likely just a J2ME version of Opera Mini, used to use it on my PSP
>chink botnet
Wasn't Opera Norwegian?
It's still developed in Norway but they're under a Chinese parent company now or something like that
>remembers your 134+ tabs but keeps them out of memory till you decide to click on them
This. Based Opera.
I'm using Opera on Android because it's the only browser I know that actually reflows text after I resize the page.

Let me know when their devtools are half as good as chromiums.
Just use Open with instead
did they put stacking tabs back yet
>youtube-dl + MPV
all that crap vs 1 simple popout opera click
also I gotta say I love having an instant messaging sidebar
after reading this thread, im gonna install and use Vivaldi instead of Opera. any tips?
based and redpilled
cringe and bluepilled
Botnet garbage.
>>converts timezones to your local zone when you highlight
>>converts currencies to your local currency when you highlight
That's really cool actually, I need to find an extension to do this on chrome
I installed it least month, shit is good, it's like Vivaldi but actually works.
I have been using Opera almost for 3 years, switched from firefox, never really liked chrome. Loved it since day one. Are the security concerns real?
nice, the shitcent drones made a deal to shill opera now
>My data being leaked to the chinks is better than it being leaked to amerimutts, but that mean it's good.
Yeah and you can choose a browser which does none of that. It's not like only Opera exists.
