    Still Chrome and slow.

    For me it doesn’t evoke any nostalgic feelings.

    I used Opera between 9 and 12, bookmarks were very convenient, it had a builtin torrent client, and so on. Compact and ergonomic UI, stylesheets and caching modes. And not too nauseating in appearance.

      Ignore people like this. Just bad mouthing a browser to be cool.

      Vivaldi is ahead of any other browser in features, control, customization and security. Even AdBlock extensions still work.

      Yes, it is Chromium based, so what? I loved Opera before it was sold for parts to a Chinese hedge fund and Firefox is too glitchy for my taste.

      Ummm, the features you described are all in Vivaldi. Browser engine is Blink (Chromium). My experience with it has been that it’s very fast and stable. I’ve used Opera since about version 6. My nostalgia is real.
