The splash screen is a nuisance. The startup sound is straight out unprofessional and depending on one's system may be disturbingly loud. Every time I use Opera now (Opera One) it begins by pissing me off mightily, and annoying coworkers if I'm in an office. This is a peculiar decision by Opera and unacceptable. They have downgraded a browser that actually promotes productivity and redefined it as a time-wasting entertainment platform not intended for any professional environment. And two days ago, after decades of researching in libraries on two continents, I experienced my first ever admonishing "SHHH!" from a librarian. WTF Opera?
