Too late...

Years later they kinda got on par, feature wise, with Opera 12, really?
SmartRSS extension worked beautifully anyway.

I use it all the time. On my pc, on my phone. It is great browser. Much better than chrome.

I'm sorry to inform Opera fans, but this proprietary skin for Google Chrome has been sold to China like a few days ago http://www.digitaltrends.com/computi...se-consortium/

Uhm, lol, they also mumble something about "privacy". Looking on how China does it with their Great Chinese Firewall one could surely expect quite some privacy ... intrusion. I wonder if they're going to implement infamous china Internet censorship, etc.

Ok. I'm not into mobile devices, so that slipped by me.

Much better than Chrome maybe (though when I tested it was just as resource hungry). Personally, I prefer Firefox. On mobile it seems to eat a lot less resources. On the desktop, I'm still using Seamonkey/Firefox, but I'm eyeing Vivaldi. Of course, I have Chrome installed, but somehow it didn't manage to win me over in all these years. Meanwhile, Opera just got the boot from my tablet this very week.

People waiting for Edge to get extensions that are fed up with both Google's and Mozilla's race to the bottom.

What is bottom here? Web extensions? What would Edge bring (different)?
