Chrome overtook Opera's market share within days of launching. Opera's market share is barely above the margin for error. It's an irrelevant footnote in the browser world.

An irrelevant footnote with some of the best rendering and security capabilities of any browsers. That doesn't quite add up.

But that's not the point! It doesn't matter how good or bad it is, because no one cares. We're just all getting tired of rabid Opera fans busting into every browser thread with their boring and tired sales pitch like fucking Amway members. Just stop it, no one cares!

This is a browser thread, and Opera is a browser. Ergo, Opera has just as much place here as any other browser. Why the special hatred? You clearly care enough to bash Opera, for whatever reason you may have.

It's a fucking browser thread, you retarded git!
 
Google releases a browser and all the browsers except Chrome are vulnerable to hacking. Google employs super smart hacker types. Hmmmmm.
 
Opera is failure from the start by charging people money to get rid of the stupid ad banner. By the time they decided to go free, it was too late.

FF + add-ons can't be beat, I don't like switching to a new browser.

Wouldn't that make it less of a target for hackers? Assuming it has good security to begin with.

Sure, but it also means no one gives a shit. Opera fans are noisy but their browser is irrelevant. They're like the Ron Paul fans of the browser world.

Show of hands which of the Opera users here went and converted to Chrome? Show of hands who didn't...
Click to expand...

Actually, I did. I miss my mouse gestures by I do not miss Opera not rendering pages correctly (and yes, I know they're the most standards-compliant, but the real standard that matters to web developers is if IE can display the page correctly).
 
Been using Opera since teh days it had ads built-in. I think the main reason mainstream people dont use Opera for precisely the reason really savvy users do: it comes preloaded with a ton of features. FF off a fresh downloadi s a pretty vanilla browser with no real features - this appeals to the grandma who just wants to check some email. All of Operas bells and whistles (which eventually get added into FF via add-ons and updates a few months later) only confuses them.

Why? Because we think it's superior to anything else out there?

No, because you won't shut up about it! Every browser thread is spammed by Operabots. Your presence in online discussions is out of proportion with your market share. Did you ever get annoyed during early election season with the influx of annoying spammy Ron Paulbots? Well Opera fans are the same. Annoying and spammy.
 
still prefer firefox for general use😛
chrome for gmail/google reader
i don't think opera, been giving it a chance since it came out...it always finds a way to bug me

Tough shit. Why is it our problem if IE and FF fans can't be bothered to post to such a degree as to make you happy?

I am convinced that Opera employs subliminal messaging on its users to aid in its spread, hence the aggressive preaching commonly displayed by its users.

It was you that really start the shit-talk in this thread about the Opera crowd. The first few instances where Opera was mentioned were benign statements along the lines of "I became an Opera convert" or when somebody noted that Opera wasn't even invluded in a browser - which is a very valid and reasonable thing to say. You escalated the situation by calling out the Opera crowd. If you don't want people to get defensive about Opera, then maybe you should not talk shit about those people.
