I have used Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, and Opera in the past. But somehow I tucked at using Google Chrome. What makes Opera better than it. Any good answers?

@avanotty Just preference tbh. If you don't like it, don't use it.

I like Opera because it is different and faster. Used Firefox before and was under the impression that it became slower everyday. I do not like Chrome so I picked Opera.

The mayor reason why I chose Opera GX was because of the performance control feature to measure how much RAM it consumes.
I also like in a minor extent the corner feature to know when new titles will be released or giveaways will start.
Lastly and less of all I like the tapping sound when you press the keys.

@beerpongde I do agree! The usage is really faster and much more easier than others.

@avanotty Opera is Fast, Fluid, Very Customizable, and Comes with free VPN if you need, and that's huge in my opinion, UI UX is improving, so what now? are you switching after reading this

Hey Ava,

I think Opera has its own audience, just like people have a psychology that pushes them towards using Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox. Maybe it is the difference between the layout that captures the attention of the users. Some people like it all on their screen while some prefer a clean browsing experience with just a search tab on the front.

I think that’s what all is making all the difference.

The fact that is not made by a US-based big tech company, so you can trust it better.

Opera benefits

Work speed
Saving traffic
Blocking ads
Built-in VPN
Convenient sidebar with tools
"My Flow" (a service that allows you to synchronize content on different devices within a browser. This is a kind of chat that you can connect to by scanning a QR code. Messages sent in it with files and links from your computer are immediately sent to the browser on your phone)
Built-in messengers
Convenient screenshot, does not capture anything unnecessary
Mouse gestures
Button gestures
Keyboard shortcuts
Registration
Express panel
Energy saving

P.S. Well, these are all little things. You just have to try this bruiser and decide if it is right for you.

@avanotty Your answer is in your time using it steadily for a month, a week, 3 days, or a day, I think the latest is the leasts
Opera is the most efficient among them

@avanotty "It also performs and loads pages much, much faster" "1 week of usage" Any clean web browser installation can be faster than one that has a lot of caches, extensions, cookies, etc. But yeah, Opera tends to use less RAM than chrome

I remember using opera a few years back when smartphones had hit the market for the first time. I was using Sony Xperia Mini. It had an inbuilt (already installed) Opera browser app. I didn't use any other browser, though I was familiar with many other browsers. If I recall it correctly, it had a neatly organised user interface and I was completely happy with the experience.
But, the shift happened when I started using the laptop and changed my phone. Laptops have Google chrome as a default browser, and smartphones running on android OS gives us chrome. I think the shift happened more like an external force. When people start using smartphones that run on android, they get used to the idea that chrome is a default browser. The majority of the users do not download or install any other browser, they will never go to that extend and they stick with what they have.
