Can somebody explain why such a neat non-Google browser is google dependent. I mean when I start the browser it warns user to enable google play services, as with many apps having this warning there is really no need to rely on GoogPlServ. Since after Chrome 111.0 the Polaris committee introduced privacy leaving cookie errors upstream of all browsers Chrome and moz, everything up to date. This results in a Google Chrome for android criminal espionage bug. Every rebtanded browser has it because it is the same sourcecode, even Opera. Anyway I say this because the browsers frequently lockup, only those after the Criminal espionage bug, my guess is JavaScript problems. This is relevent to this post because only after Opera issues a GoogPS warning does even Opera frequently hang & lockup. So bringing this back to the top: Can somebody explain why such a neat non-Google browser is google dependent.?

This dependency likely comes from the underlying Chromium engine that both Chrome and Opera use. Even though Opera brands itself as a non-Google browser, it still shares code with Chromium, which integrates with Google services. Unfortunately, this can lead to performance issues, especially when privacy-related bugs or JavaScript problems appear. A good workaround might be to try using Opera's "Lite" version or look for alternative browsers that don’t rely on Google infrastructure as heavily.

@jhonndee glad to read you agree and are aware. Trying out opera mini now. like the FAQ reads reminds me of the realOpera browser not this chrome rebrand trash. seems like dev goal was to make realOpera the mini version and replace opwra with chrome rebrand trash. also note depending on your VPN or ISP prob what fakeGoogle JS criminal espionage bugs you get. I will have some questions about operaMini woyld you like me to ask you here or spawn new threads you can seek for?

@jhonndee upvoted you for agreeing, suggesting OperaMini isn't worth bookmarking. If you like you may join in on my next question here https://forums.opera.com/topic/75714/switching-from-opera-to-operamini/1
