      Hi,

      I downloaded Opera, and I want to use it instead of Firefox since it seems not to use as many resources on my mac. I liked though, that I was able to enable, that Firefox always starts in private mode. Is that possible too with Opera?

        Private mode is made for private browsing so after closing Opera all sites that was visited privately are closed. That's how it'd designed in Opera. Cheers!

          Yep, I've wanted this too for quite some time. Unfortunately with Opera you have to select it from the dropdown File menu (or ctrl cmd N) every time you open the browser. Some people would like to have private tabs as an option too. I have installed the Chrome extension Click&Clean that at least enables me to delete browsing data, cookies etc automatically upon exit (another default Firefox feature). It's also a bit annoying Opera are so secretive about their future plans.
