I just installed this browser and I wanted to scream a huge THANK YOU to the team that created it.
I had hear about it, but I couldn't imagine how awesome could be!
It's been about 3-4 months long that I see the most terrible browser in the world (Google Chromed) crashes in my face and I've been so disappointed.So, I came here just to thank the beautiful existence of Opera!! :yes:

Though Opera since version 20 or so, is Blink based (that is Chrome engine), the version prior use Operas own Presto engine.
A lot of people on this forum prefer the Presto engine and the feature-laden Opera version that used it - including me.
But a lot of people also like the Blink Opera version.And I like, that Opera as developers are adding and including features (beloved features) from the old Presto Opera into the new Blink Opera with almost every update.
take a look at some "hidden" features opera://flags present for you. But keep in mind, these option are still under development and may crash your system and browser.

I can reiterate this. I've only been using Opera as my primary browser for a couple weeks now, but after figuring out (through the forums) some small but crucial functions, it's been top notch. I had no idea there was a built-in flash block, for instance. Really sweet. Firefox is gathering dust as we speak, and Chrome... well, that's in the trash heap, ready to be dragged to the curb.

Chrome can block flash too. Go to settings -> Show advanced settings -> Content -> Under plug-ins, you can find Click to play.
I don't know if that's what you mean tho, because Opera does not block flash by default, or did I miss something
Only feature I like in Opera vs Chrome is "Delay loading of background tabs" option, which is a copycat feature from Firefox. -
