Sheesh, Opera remember when Opera was the best choice for users with slow internet? Remember the great built-in email client and XMPP clients? Now…this?
The tab stacking and visual mouse gestures were awesome back in the day! I’d never use a modern Opera product (and stopped after they switched to Chromium) unfortunately the company that owns it made a bunch of money through predatory payday loan apps in a few developing countries.

Opera is Chinese nowadays, former opera devs made Vivaldi.
The company that owns Opera nowadays is pretty shady, I’d never trust their code to run on any of my devices.
As I said, it’s a Chinese company, most people not on lemmygrad are suspicious of Chinese software ;)
Honestly, Vivaldi is the single best Chromium-based browser. Sad it doesn’t get more recognition.
Personally, I don’t care much, all Chromium browsers are Chromium browsers and toxic.
True enough, though you can’t deny their features are quite unique. The day Firefox adds tab tiling will be pure bliss.
My favourite unique feature is container tabs on FF ;) Second is probably uBlock Origin CNAME uncloaking.
Tab tiling seems nice, but the few times I need something like that, I’m happy to replicate it by tiling multiple windows.
I hope they make Container Tabs work on Android Firefox soon, it’s the one Add-on I can’t make work with the Android Firefox Nightly workaround.

The unfixed bugs have been getting worse and worse over the last 18 months or so though, it crashes on opening a new tab almost daily here.

Oh yeah I totally forgot about gestures. That was a neat feature at the time.
If Opera had stayed in its lane, it would be pretty much Vivaldi.
