When I have to attach files or screenshots to tickets instead of opening up file explorer it knows what my last few file were that I touched on my PC and suggests them as the files I want to attach. SUPER FAST, faster than chrome and ZERO compatibility issues as a matter of fact Opera plays better with some third party applications we use and those companies want us to use Edge for compatibility

I’m a developer and in every company I worked in we tested for all browsers at least chrome and firefox, mind you I’m not in north america and most people use windows PCs around these parts. But still, in software quality assurance it is ideal to test for all possible user configs. And another thing. When we develop in with php and html these all follow a standard framework more or less that is 80-90% browser agnostic so ideally multiple systems/browsers should be able to decode/translate these lines of scripts into things on-screen. The only time you’d run into something is if a browser has a known bug for how to deal with a certain function or you are using propriety shit like flash which is dead now and used to need it’s own plugins. But more or less you wouldn’t have much issues with either browsers in terms of functionality at least 80-90% of the time

Unfortunately, all chromium based browsers are same for developers. I prefer opera because of power saving option. I use opera on Linux, I test Brave, Firefox, Falcon, Safari, Edge, but I think now days opera is far better than other Chromium browsers. Edge and Brave are good, but It's not good as opera. Vivaldi is look like opera without power saving capability. I use Opera in laptop and Firefox or Brave for work and testing My sites. In mac, safari is good for battery, but opera is better. If I use windows on a Virtual Machine, I usually use MS Edge.

I used Opera many years ago, I dumped Chrome maybe 3 or 4 years ago and I won't go back. Opera has much better privacy. Popup blockers in Opera work here in youtube too, I get no ads that I have to skip at all with the proper extension. Opera works fine, I have had no web problems, but there are a SMALL handful of sites, streaming sites in particular that refuse to play for Opera. Of all the streaming sites I've visited, probably 3 didn't work right or disallowed because it detected Opera. I'm not in love with Opera, but I like it more than all of the other browsers, Firefox is #2 especially when I want to download streaming, including youtube. Pity Opera didn't extend the privacy features to the mobile version.

Bro Opera has been the better browser since 2013 when they switched to chromium and baked their own rendering engine. While Chrome suffered from silly UI bugs, memory leaks, stability, and questionable time (years) to fix these bugs, Opera had none. I haven't a clue why anyone would stick to Chrome. My impression of most Google products on the surface level has been negative, and as a dev myself I can see that they are all terribly managed.

I’ve been using Opera as far back as 2007. One thing that I always enjoyed about Opera is on the rare occasions where a download was interrupted, Opera is able to resume the download quicker than most other browsers. Over the years, Opera has gotten better and better, to the point where I’ve used Opera more than Firefox and WAY more than Chrome. In fact, the first browser I installed on my latest laptops have been Opera. It’s good to see Opera getting some love after all these years.

You still need to transfer your data and settings. - dapps popups are annoying and suggestion for crypto wallet can't be turned off... - not all sites work well with opera - Some extensions doesnt work for opera while it works with chrome. because of the browser detection.

Whenever I replace devices, the first download has been Brave for several so far. Has it's problems but it's otherwise been smooth sailing. Fast loading compared to Chrome and more, much more stable then Firefox. I do hope they fix the crashing issue, just used to always get really unstable after several hours and I got to recognise the symptoms and sometimes I'd get it shutdown in time, otherwise it would easily take several minutes or more to unfreeze so I could close it. Mostly I'd just crashed it then put up with and try to ignore the admonishment that I didn't close it down properly! My only grumble is the Tab list on Brave is notoriously out of date. telling me I've only just looked a tab minutes ago, when I'm sure it was yesterday and I get all the tabs up. It gets too long. I liked tabs per page better. Tab search on it is great tho'. Another one is; load too many tabs and they go off screen and the only way to see them is on tab list or delete other tabs until it comes back on the screen. Second download after Brave is up and running, is Open Office, brilliant. My sister pays a AU$100 every year and has been for a decade, and I keep telling her, get Open Office. Ooh, I might not open my writings. Umm, yes it will, it opens more .docs than Microsloft. I say, download it, get it running, test it and if it doesn't work, delete it. Nothing lost and it didn't cost.

Intentionally handicapped. It's clear whoever is maintaining this browser wants it to stay 3rd tier so they have less work to do, they don't want efficient and more heavy users. It's ridiculous to have a prompt for every drag and drop bookmark, and if you search for how to turn it off you can't. And a closed 'suggestion' from 2021. The ONLY reason for developers to be so ridiculous they only allow their own much slower preference is because they DON'T WANT actual users. The poor usability aspects of Opera are intentional.
