I have Opera on my computer, and I use it sometimes, but I mainly use Firefox. Anyway, Opera is celebrating their ten year anniversary, and for anyone that uses Opera, they are providing free registration codes only for today, so get one while you can! Here’s the link:

Enjoy 😊

i tried it…

it’s kinda slow compared to firefox, and the settings aren’t that great (i’ll look into extensions over the weekend)...

the rendering engine is outstanding, though- it can get ‘IE Only’ sites very, very well 👏

I tried Opera and I’m just not a fan.  I really think Firefox is better and you don’t need to pay for it.

DRUMMER WHERE YOU BEEN!!!!

I agree with Wolfeman, I’ve tried it many times and I just don’t like it.

I do indeed like opera…and got the free code. But I just can’t get out of the habit of clicking the internet button on the bottom toolbar in gnome/fedora 😊

I like Opera, I think it’s a damn good browser and, I dare say, safer than any other because so little people use it so people don’t concentrate on finding exploits in it as much. However I’m too used to Firefox. But I do use it every once in a while to pay for stuff online and what-not.
