How I just wish there was a bare-bones Blink browser with the default Chrome UI and it supports only a few things right out of the box: So there isn’t really a purpose for that browser to exist really – it’s just even more bloat and fluff on top of the already bloated Opera. It’s probably aimed at RGB kiddies who beg their parents to buy them gaming PCs with RGB lighting, because they believe that somehow makes them cool, like that South Park episode where Cartman believed that having an iPad somehow makes you cool (it doesn’t). It has integrated facebook and whatsapp, which cannot be removed and I quite frankly detest facebook and all social media so even if I don’t use those features, I don’t want them in my browser.Īs for Opera GX, that’s just a marketing stunt to get more people into the Opera ecosystem. I just don’t like it because of the bloat. I’m not using it, but that’s not because I’m in any way concerned that it’s owned by a Chinese company and it may or may not be phoning home to China with what I do. Over the years it got bloated in a similar manner as Vivaldi is, although Opera is still quite fast and lightweight despite its bloat. It had a very nice UI and wasn’t yet bloated with useless features. At first the browser under Blink was very lean, clean and fast. Opera stopped being good about a year after they switched from Presto to Blink. One change that I would like to see is for the Microsoft Store's web app to use the same interface as its desktop counterpart. Now that Microsoft has opened up the store to support several frameworks, hopefully more developers will bring their creations to the platform. We now have Amazon, Epic Games Store, WhatsApp Beta, to name some quality apps that were released recently. It's certainly interesting to see more desktop programs coming to the Store. The improvements that we have seen recently on the store app certainly make it more tolerable than the previous version, which was clunky at best. Until recently, the Microsoft Store had been displaying irrelevant results for keywords, notably for the term Firefox, which I highlighted above. Thankfully, the Store's search function works correctly, which is saying something. It's not going to be a big deal for most users, but if you'd like to check the screenshots, or read the system requirements from your web browser, you can't do that. The main Opera browser that was released 3 months ago doesn't have the share button or the direct link to the store listing either. And here's a similar search query for the term Firefox, which displays the proper result. the result is accessible exclusively from the Store app. The app doesn't pop up in the results, which can only mean it is hidden from browsers, i.e. Here's what the store's results will show you when searching for Opera. Opera Limited is a subsidiary of Kunlun Tech Limited.It seems a little odd, since all other apps have the share button at the bottom/top of the page.
