But usually a good product has a good market share.
It may depend on several factors. Marketing can make a huge difference for example.
Opera presto had more options than other browsers
For sure, but at the same time that it was something good for some users, for others it used to cause some confusion mainly because people tended to forget that they had enabled/disabled one of those options or had a custom menu/toolbar.
Also, all those options turned Presto in something hard to maintain.
As I said sometimes, I'm not against options, features, etc but they should be evaluated before being implemented so the same mistakes will not happen again.
Like the pinned topic on this forum says, a new feature/option should be useful for most users.
Opera has complex things.
It's a complex software.
It's there when need it, for every user.
Sorry, but things don't work that way. You can't simply go adding options and features without checking if they would be really useful for both the users and the software authors.
Like I always say: more options/features means more code, more code means more (chances of) bugs.
Translation驴?
You can add Google Translator or any other as a search engine. I did that and I use it.
Opera could allow use search engines with urls in address bar. I think it would be better than being asked all the tine if you want to translate a page like in Chrome.
Anyway, as Opera don't have a translation service, adding a translation feature may depend on a legal agreement with one of those services.
Unload toolbar from extension icons驴?
How it would be useful?
Reset browser option when problems detected?
A rest button would be interesting, something like the one in flags page.
Anyway, none of those could be called basic features.
Many posts problems are solved cleaning cookies and cache, it could be managed without asking in the forums with an easy access and an info banner
It may work for the more 'tech savvy' users who know what to do and, more than everything, know what they are doing. The others would still ask for help.
And cleaning cookies should be an ultimate solution as it makes the user loose many site configurations.>
Of course, but usually the question should be:
How satisfied are the users with the product?
Are we fulfilling the needings?Welcome to capitalism. Welcome to real world. :-D>
Without extensions, Chromium is nothing
Why?
I use only one extension in Chrome, mainly for testing purposes. In Opera I use two at the moment, none of them I could call essential.

Well, I could understand your opinion.
About Opera, I don't understand his strategy...

Well, just because something has been requeste doesn't mean that it should be implemented because of all the reasons already listed.

They always say security is a priority, but still, I have to use an extension if I want to have an overview of site permissions. The Chrome solution is very good. They could use it, at least least until it gets a priority.

You don't need to see some extension icons rarely clicked but used, and I don't want to hide the icon from toolbar and spend time every time I need to modify something on it.
Also reorder extensions and keep them organized it's an aspect of good behavior.Some requests are extremely easy to understand.

Maybe for those users who use a bunch of extensions, but how many they are? It worths the efforts to implement such feature?
There are many questions that need to be answered before adding or changing something.

And how that feature would help on that?

There is a nice Opera extension called "Policy Control" which allows one to make exceptions for 11 preference settings for individual sites.
