With the number of people concerned about privacy, it is a wonder why chrome is even popular.

    Opera cons notwithstanding, Opera One is really nice as a browser.

    Firefox itself has some UI quirks that can cause a bit of friction.

    Chrome always feels like it just works, but I rely on Google’s ecosystem frequently.

      Opera has in the past been caught passing all of its users’ data through their servers, decrypting and re-encrypting it there all while telling the users that the data was encrypted end-to-end.

      Opera is Chinese spyware. Look up Vivaldi, it’s Opera on steroids but with none of the privacy risks…it was also made by the original creator of Opera.

        Great Idea! I keep forgetting to. I don’t really mind being spied on by the Chinese since they already have their finger in many other pies I like to eat…and upon writing this I realized how foolish I am!
