Opera 10.60 still has bugs with flash plugins so keep on eye on process called \”operapluginwrap\”.

Opera is the best browser ever. Have been using it since early versions both on Win and Lin. Fast, modern and versatile.

Have to say, I’ve been running Opera under Linux for years. I’m glad they’ve ported it to GTK, but it’s still buggy. I’ve turned off everything but Javascript, and still occasionally Opera totally paralyses my entire system, completely and utterly.

I’m not sure if it’s my Gnome and GTK theme system, but, I’m having some colour issues also in the interface. And I’ve abandoned the mail, due to visual formatting.

Killer features that I can’t live without are: user stylesheets, fit to width, zoom and keyboard navigation.

Opera 10.5 series on my PowerPC with OSX tiger, was complete and utter trash. I’ve reverted to 10.10, cursing it’s nags about upgrading.

I use Chrome a little. I like to apply my own styles, but there seems to be no control in chrome. I fluctuate between Firefox and Opera.

I think they all could do with a little spit and polish. The whole UI of Firefox needs a sort out, I’d carry on but I’ve moaned about it before on here.

Credos to Opera for actually giving a hoot about Linux, it’s much appreciated.

I’m one of the few that bought Opera, and that’s saying something as I am a FLOSS man in the main.

Call me old fashioned – but I’d rather play my flash videos in a standalone player. Why can’t I do that?

Each tab/window is a separate process. If one crashes, it doesn't take the whole browser down. Plus, its very fast. Autofill needs work, however. </p> Chrome (or Chromium) is the best browser.
