Your photo is childish and your claims to have been using Opera from day one (or does Sept. 2013 qualify?) are undoubtedly made of the same thing your photo is. You're just another troll to put on my ignore list. Bye bye...:whistle:

Some of us actually have. I for example where part off, what would now be called a “kick-starter“ project, “Opera-Magic” and have pre-ordered Opera for OS/2.
That would qualify as before day 1.

Maybe so, but then you're not behaving in such a juvenile fashion as the other poster. No one is thrilled at the new direction including me. We're all hopeful that somehow Opera will turn this around and add back the missing features we need. But pointless rants and crude posts such as the former post, are not the way to go about getting our message across "if" we expect it to have any credence whatsoever.

I have been using Opera since build 4.6. I kept it as my main browser until about 3 years ago when I started playing Kingdoms of Camelot on FB and I needed the abilities of Greasemonkey which Opera didn't support (at least the instructions I found didn't help) so palemoon became my browser of choice. now I no longer play that game and decided to look at Opera again. WTF?????? a chrome look alike? all the mega customizations gone? no menu bar? my favorite theme Marina...gone? I've seen in this thread this isn't where complaints go, and even if my complaints were listened to where would I post them? (yes I'm being lazy, throw me a bone please). that's what I liked about Opera, it wasn't like the others. now it's just a sad rip off/look alike.

I have to admit that I've been reading all the great comments both for and against so eloquently posted for quite some time hoping to get some idea of the direction Opera has taken. What I've discovered is that Opera is DONE for the consumer market. Really even at its hight it was around 2% of the market (yes I remember when you could tell Opera to identify itself as IE) and even if the bring back the full optimization that existed in the previous versions it's likely to be years at their current pace. So, why destroy the old opera we all loved ? My suspicion is that Opera is not a financially viable company under the old code and would be better served if it was swallowed up by a larger player that wanted their own version of a Google lite browser. We just have to face the facts that the party's over and don't forget to turn out the lights.
“Companions the creator seeks, not corpses, not herds and believers. Fellow creators the creator seeks -- those who write new values on new tablets. Companions the creator seeks, and fellow harvesters; for everything about him is ripe for the harvest.” too bad Google got there first.
