        @pegasisworks @Highfieldbc @wonghow Using the snap version of Opera is indeed very slow. Please note that if you are using snap, you are using Linux. If you are using Windows or macOS, these instructions aren't for you.

        To install Opera normally, simply open a terminal (usually CTRL + ALT +T) and type

        sudo apt install opera-stable
        

        You will see this:

        And Opera should be installed.

            @wonghow I do! Sometimes people post in the wrong area, and the post wasn't very clear what the OS was.

                  @pegasisworks I was using Brave, Opera is just as fast with better UI, video sharpening and chat sidebar.
                  There must be something wrong with your system for Opera to take 25s, did you use a stop watch? Even snap does not take that long. What Linux are you using? are you running on SSD, enough free RAM? CPU doing something else?

                    I am also facing same issue with last update. The browser is working very slow.

                    Kindly provide any solution for it.

                    Thanks

                      @kane12 reset it to default and save your data or reload it might help
