You should hire more idiots

Your latests posts show that you need some rest to calm down. So take a rest from the forums until Easter at least.

Nope, Off-road and Turbo are two different things, you can take that mot à mot as for "final step to replace Off-Road mode with Opera Turbo". Now you can't ping opera mini servers with "debug:" URL.

Does Opera Turbo Mode do less compression ?
I was comparing Opera 26 Vs Opera Beta (as of 04/02)

Opera 26 off Road Counter is 1.0 MB / 5.8 MB
Opera beta is Turbo Mode counter us 2.7MB / 6.3 MB

Same websites.

Yes but it preserves compatibility and functionality in webpages much better.

With Opera Turbo you also make full use of the local cache so the savings is really higher than what's reported.

... and is more safe than before using Turbo mode set to low quality, previously those snappy adware redirections occurred more frequently especially with this configuration.

i dont know is it my new phone with quad core and 1gb ram- 500mb free space... opera working great i cant remember when is the last time i saw yellow cat crash.. and tabs are not reloading i can work fast with couple of tabs.. i recommend people to use classic layout with mobile version and text-warp ON..
text warp is working so good you should put it ON by default

So what we're talking about if I recall correctly is SSR, or Small Screen Rendering which was a feature in the Presto layout engine. It was a lot of heuristics and tricks to try to mangle your web page into a single column of text... intended for the days when phones could just display a couple of lines of text.
Adding that to Chromium would certainly be possible, though I don't think it would be worthwhile. We have text wrap which essentially achieves the same thing but much better IMO. SSR would probably not behave very well on a modern web page.

For some reason Opera warnings are not activated on latest Opera 28. URL example html6test.com (unsafe). Opera Mini shouldn't resolve this URL either. Currently I don't have latest beta installed on my device so I don't know how it works Turbo2.

You mean the SSL warning? Works for me as long as you enter it as an https-address.

Yes, right. Previously some Google ads were blocked on oraexacta.net so I was under the impression that protection was disabled, https part was omitted...
