On desktop it's a less laggy and less RAM-using version of Chrome, with a better layout and a bunch of useful features. And on Android it's by far the best mobile browser out there. Intuitive layout, no lag (very nimble) and a similar host of useful features. Most notably very responsive word wrap.
Does anybody here use it? I'm tempted to make it my main browser but I'm scared of the Chinese botnet aspect of it.
- Would it be safe to shop through (input credit card details)? - Safe to online bank with? (although I would never do that with my main browser anyway, but just asking) - Safe to manage passwords with? (let browser remember passwords) - Safe to sync data to use seaminlessly on multiple devices?
I use it and it is comfy as fuck. By far the best Chromium derivative. The chink botnet is the one aspect that sucks, but they're not that kinda chinks. Much like google they want your info for ad profiling, they don't give a shit about your credit card info or whatever.

... however, ungoogled-chromium penetrates him from standing - M00T
Eli Ward
I use it since 2012, but just switched to ungoogled-chromium few days ago.
Jose Walker
I use it daily, always found it weird how little people even consider using it in all those browser threads. Works great.

NONFREE USE FALKON AND ICECATMOBILE
Connor Moore
Answer to all 4 is yes, though you should use a proper password manager (that goes for any browser).
Given the quality of those programs, nonfree is essentially an endorsement at this point

>another Jow Forums is underaged thread Opera stopped being good when it became another chrome skin, faggot.
Gavin Ortiz
Opera is still better than Chrome & FF fag
Thomas Baker
>password manager Get autistic enough to remember your big passwords.
Carson Harris
>less laggy than Chrome
What kind of PC do you have where your browser lags?
Oliver Foster
Been using it for 2 years. I've been torn between Opera and Pale Moon as my main browser, the thing that keeps me from switching to Pale Moon is the pop-out video feature in Opera, which is ultra comfy.
>- Would it be safe to shop through (input credit card details)? >- Safe to online bank with? (although I would never do that with my main browser anyway, but just asking) Sure. If you have any problems then I don't think it will be because of Opera. >- Safe to manage passwords with? (let browser remember passwords) Kinda. It will ask for your admin password before revealing your password in plain text, unlike Firefox and Pale Moon which will just show them to any motherfucker. So just make sure that your devices are password protected. For better security you can use a password manager addon. >- Safe to sync data to use seaminlessly on multiple devices? Yes.

> I'm tempted to make it my main browser but I'm scared of the Chinese botnet aspect of it. Why would you be of interest to them?
Ryan Powell
Are browser notifications currently broken for everyone in Opera or just me? Been like this for several fucking versions.
Justin Reed
I thought that was just me. In my case though they only got fucked since the last update.
Kayden Edwards
I enjoy it! It works well for my PC at least.
Ian Murphy
I too like Opera but I've more or less switched over to Vivaldi now that it has gotten a bit more flesh on its bones.
Sebastian Martinez
I wish Vivaldi had a bit less flesh. I'd like to switch too to get away from Opera's chink overlords, but goddamn it's laggy, and I'm not on a toaster either.

>owned by the chinese >pretty much a reskinned chromium >offers nothing chromium can't do better unless you're technically inept, opera offers nothing of value
The speed is good. It's range banned on Jow Forums.
Isaac Parker
It's fine to get around regional blocks and the like, but you don't want to trust it with any actually private info.
Nathaniel Brooks
been using it for over 2 years, really my default now.
Kevin Smith
opera was fine, until the botnet become so memory hungry it slowed my system to a the equivalent of a w95 486, wiped it and installed brave and now speedy system again
Wait opera is bad? Shit... I might need to get brave.
Luke Hughes
+ video pop out + real print to pdf + opera turbo + best looking and fastest chromium browser + access to every chrome plugin + configurability + settings allow remapping every keybind
vimium works fantastic no conflicting keymaps vimium's omnibar instead of default one and probably more I can't think of among chromium browsers it's the best in my opinion

>Pale Moon That shit is dead. The only password manager with an XUL extension these days is LastPass. Better go with Waterfox.

>And on Android it's by far the best mobile browser out there.
You clearly didn't try Bromite.
Alexander White
Does it feel great that you're sending your data to Google?
Jordan Morgan
Typical neo-Jow Forumstard npc response. It's 2019, if you think you have privacy on the internet then you're a fucking retard. Just use whatever works best
Liam Morris
Agreed. I understand there's no privacy, so instead of using the Tor browser or anything opensource, I allow companies to make millions of dollars while I get absolutely nothing. It's like working for free I LOVE the chinese and social credit!
Joseph Price
Google's Chinese now? Ah, the more you know...
Luke Bell
>Spyware Level: EXTREMELY HIGH No, thanks.

is opera in the gentoo repos?

Leo Sanders
You can use ungoogled chromium, it's unbotnet version of Opera
Landon Powell
palemoon with the netscape navigator theme, greasemonkey plus Jow Forums x and ublock origin legacy.
Ayden Collins
Opera is pretty comfy desu, but Vivaldi has better customization and Ungoogled Chromium is basically the only good Blink web browser. God I miss good Opera.
So the chink retards who make this other crhomium skin noticed all the brave shill threads and decided to join in. This one is more offensive because Opera used to be bar none the best browser available before some chinese cockstops bought it and made it into a chrome skin. Fuck you and your chinese spyware, and fuck your astroturfing threads.
