I remember opera features were wild. At some point they cached websites on their servers to load them faster, they had a builtin torrent client, they automatically created mobile versions of pages, probably more I’m not remembering
There was also a built in webserver, email client, irc client. I was quite sad when they sold out and became yet another chrome clone. Vivadli carries on the spirit, but i’ve since switched to firefox purely because i dont want the web to be dominated by chromium.
opera was the fastest of the bunch.

They’ll never live down (to me at least) that they tried to charge money for a web browser.
I mean… so did Netscape.

how many hours a day do you use a browser?
