I've been using Opera for a few years now and I've been enjoying its features, UI and everything. However, I (surprisingly to me) haven't noticed many people mentioning it. Also, when I was on Reddit and mentioned that I use it I got downvoted which left me somewhat confused haha.

So I'm wondering if there's anything wrong with it and/or if I should give another browser a go (I noticed Firefox is mentioned a lot on here)

Spyware and something a virus will install on your computer. I used it for a while but eventually went back to brave or a Firefox fork.

Opera for mobile is the best mobile browser by far in my opinion. For desktop, I stick with Firefox.

My opinion as well. Edge is actually being pretty decent (I'm required to use it at work), but at home it's Opera on mobile and Firefox on the desktop.

I was using Opera for the last 4 to 5 years. But I recently switched to Lemur browser mainly because it supports all chrome and edge extensions and I prefer it's ui over kiwi's. It is made by Chinese devs tho.

It’s about the same as any other chromium browser. I prefer brave. Vivaldi’s tiling was cool though.

Vivaldi is definitely cool — except for the amount of RAM it uses. If it weren’t for that, I would use it a lot more, but for me, Firefox is just faster all around.

Ngl I have tried vivaldi, but I didn't find the ui intuitive at all, and I have used many browser in my life without any problem.
