Nobody:
Opera: Hey kids, do you want to install a GAMING browser?!
Also, nobody:
Also, Opera: Every couple of times that the browser auto-updates itself, it plays a splash screen with a weirdly ominous and loud noise. You're welcome. We knew you'd love that.
Its such a horrendously cheesy marketing gimmick, and people still somehow fall for it. Like sure, it has some actual features like ram limiter or whatever, but when is that every necessary? I keep around a hundred tabs open across two different browsers (yeah, I'm a weirdo like that) on my 12 year old thinkpad and it works fine, surely a GAMING computer running any other browser would be able to keep up without having to set artificial resource limits?
Also, did you know that Opera has an official vtuber? Because apparently that's also what all the cool kids are into these days
