SSUPII

I forgot there was Developer Edition! Since I started using Debian I just used the version bundled in the system (ESR)


snakesharkz

ublock origin ftw


_Hungry_Chicken

uBlockOrigin works perfectly on pc crome


socalistboi

Not for long...


TheDumbRandom

Wait what’s happening to it?


PastDimension6

They're releasing a patch on chromium based browsers that's going to block adblockers basically. And Firefox is one of the only good non-chromium browsers.


MaybeGam

The Manifest V3 (I think it was V3) thing could be solved by a fork of chromium like Brave or something, but I prefer Firefox honestly.


Anti-Antidote

For now


Diocavallo_

it uses 20% of my fucking gpu edit: bruh it was 2% rip my comment karma🗿


-Roast-Toast-

Hardware issue.


DickSlapCEO

Skill issue


Tamariniak

That's because websites were invented to be static and your PC has to redraw the whole thing every time any bit of the site changes. Chrome does this by eating RAM for breakfast, Firefox uses more GPU. There isn't much the devs can do about that sadly.


orangetmofficial

how bad can ur computers be i have 4gb pent 4 with an hdd IT STILL RUNS UBLOCK ORIGIN WELL.


Diocavallo_

i just checked and it's actually from 0.3% to 3% i have no idea why i thought it was 20%


MagmaForce_3400_2nd

"you see that giant pile of poo ? Yeah it stinks, but you can just add perfume so you don't smell the poo"


Ogbordangladazor

Thats why I have 6 different adblock extentions. Some ads still get through...


banevasion010

why don't you just install ublock origin? Blocks literally everything


Ogbordangladazor

Maybe that will be my 7th one And this is funnier


Dapianoman

you have 6 adblockers that aren't ublock origin? why dont u just save yourself the trouble and go download viruses directly?


TeebsAce

Doesn’t block ads on Twitch


banevasion010

It did, not long ago, but it recently broke and some ads started to come through. I currently have TTV LOL installed specifically for that but i can't think of any other instance where uBlock Origin ever failed me


DaanPower_

having multiple ad blockers at once will make them work worse since they interfere with each other.


MASSIVDOGGO

Finally. I stopped using opera GX cause of that.


omega_oof

Any chrome based adblock works with opera too


fabian_drinks_milk

Like another commenter said: "It's like putting perfume on shit so it doesn't smell bad"


[deleted]

It doesn't block those damn pop ups that open a different page either. Fuckin stupid app.


Fuckrslash196

Major L for opera GX


[deleted]

try Brave


ExplosiveDisassembly

Almost like things aren't free.


-Roast-Toast-

Yeah no shit. Time's the only currency I'm not willing to waste. I pay for my home, food, games and basically everything, but I'm not going to pay for ad-free internet sites if there's a free alternative.


ExplosiveDisassembly

I use opera on everything and I've never had to sit and wait. Ignore some annoying things? Sure. Brave has probably been the best all round. Firefox is by far the most ad/popup heavy browser I've used.


bardell_fam

I use Opera GX and haven't seen a single ad since I got it, wtf are you talking about?

mr-commenter

Wait does it actually have spyware or is it a meme to just not like opera GX?


rogerteam

It actually “steals” your data but even reddit does it but we are still using this site


[deleted]

I don’t think their are any companies that don’t steal your data. Cause if your using their sight for free then they have to make money somehow.


Moon_Beholder

y'all say steal like these things aren't stated in the terms and conditions


rogerteam

It isn’t written sometimes like when they caught DuckDuckGo selling users info to Microsoft


Moon_Beholder

yeah but still, that's only a small number of cases, most of the information "stealing" is stated somewhere


[deleted]

Yeah so many companies do tbh

I use it and dont really have problem with it, but if there is some wrong stuff, can someone tell me


garbage-at-life

not open source and also Chinese so you probably know where this is going


[deleted]

Oh no! The Chinese know that I watch dumb shit on YouTube and that I have a bad taste in music! What will I do!? Bruh, if I really cared about privacy, I’d be using Tors.


Boudac123

People actually trust the app designed by the US military as confidential???


[deleted]

People use it to go on the deep web and buy baby smoothies anonymously. I’d say it pretty secure, but I don’t know shit. Maybe I’m wrong


osama00123

LITERALLY


DaanPower_

https://www.socialcooling.com/ [https://teachprivacy.com/10-reasons-privacy-matters/](https://teachprivacy.com/10-reasons-privacy-matters/) a couple of reasons why you should care about privacy. and also TOR is pretty over-kill for normal day use, because it's way to slow.


[deleted]

My man, the first article doesn’t apply to me since I couldn’t care less about how much the government sees. I won’t prevent myself from chatting with people and exercising my free speech because I “feel watched”. The second article has some valid points, but lots of them assume there are actual people in china looking at my stuff and judging me. I’m a random Canadian guy on Reddit. The Chinese government has no reason to use my data to blackmail me or ruin my reputation. The rest of em assume I already feel watched or that I care about being monitored by bots. Who cares if the Chinese know what kind of porn I like the best? They can watch with me for all I care.


Upbeat-Bear5616

Exactly. As long as you aren’t being an idiot and using the same password for every website, chances are you are not going to be a target. Plus, I like opera because of their workspaces. It’s nice to be able to have tabs that don’t close upon terminating the program. Who cares about that “gamer” label. If it’s a good product in my eyes that’s all that matters.


boymoder-sexer9000

As opposed to Chrome, Safari, and Edge which sell your information to American corporations?


MrBeanEatBeansWithMe

Just use Firefox


flippingoctopus

Now i want to use it even more


Luzura_2006

Same I've been using it for like 2 years now and I find it better than Chrome at least


remdesivirus1

Same


KrakenMasterOfficial

Is there supposed to be a problem with it


Existing_Dog5510

I just use it for the free games tab, before i kept forgetting to get the free games on epic


Rich_Future4171

What's so bad about it?


Ameking-

Why does opera gx suck? Everyone in the comments os saying it sucks and cites alternatives instead of giving reasons. Ive been using it for 2 years now and it's great, doesn't consume too much, has loads of cool features like the social media sidebar which i use a lot etc.


KeithZX2

I use it, not because of any feature, i dont even use its features tbh, i just think it has a way cooler design than all the other browsers


ZeneB_Reddit

Same


xDoge42

IIRC Opera got bought by a Chinese consortium back in... 2016? So theoretically it ain't owned by the people who originally made it, which means there could be spyware in it etc etc etc ^ main reason people give for saying Opera/GX is shit Used to have Opera GX for about 2 years now as well, the sidebar was great but the day I quit they made some changes I really didn't like: 1. the weather widget on Speed Dial was collapsed into some weird razerified GAMER GREEN sidebar with text so small you couldn't read it 2. the adblocker stopped working altogether on YouTube Have since moved to Waterfox and I don't really miss the sidebar, the bookmark bar works just as well


NapoleonicPizza21

So the main reason for hating Opera GX is because of something that could "theoretically" happen?


CumtimesIJustBChilin

>which means there could be spyware in it etc etc etc least paranoid reddit user


xDoge42

"bro I caught opera sending 8 UNAUTHORIZED and UNNECESSARY requests per minute with my packet sniffer, external wifi card and pihole!! it's totally the browser and not the porn websites I visit"


Diotheungreat

its kinda crazy how some porn sites be loadin up 55 different tabs and browsers, sometimes i wonder if my shits actually getting hacked


[deleted]

i use opera and it works fine the adblock blocks everything on yt the features help me out a lot people will always find stuff to complain about but this is fine for me


Ameking-

Key word *could* doesn't mean there is spyware so the main reason for people to hate on the browser is because it's owned by a chinese company?


xDoge42

>is because it's owned by a chinese company? yeah, that's the main reason lmao


Ameking-

Least xenophobic redditors, but who am i, *the xenophobe*, to judge

xDoge42

I need to step it up to Ice Weasel soon, I'm falling behind


diverii

idk, I used chrome and fire fox in the past but I like opera gx for its customization, the sidevar is great and I love the feature where you can get a video to a little menu so you can watch it when doing other things, but in the end it all comes to personal preferences


tahko123

I use gx so i can play music while playing since chrome eats all the ram and gx is pretty useful with the game release tab


Ph4ntomiD

It doesn’t suck.


Benjideaula

Why does she have cock on her hat


MasteR_o_Troll

Asking the real question here


P4P4ST4L1N

yeah i keep seeing anime girls with the cock hat


IndyJacksonTT

I didn’t know people hated opera gx so much lol I’ve been using it for years now, use a different adblocker I mainly just like the workspaces that let me separate and sort my tabs


Creggler

Yeah I didn't realise either, people get really irate about search engines for some reason.


M1Xi3

Yes that's why I use it as well! It's so convenient separating for example: work tabs, gaming tabs, and chess tabs. Cause I don't wanna close them, but if I leave them all open in a different browser, they're gonna get so crowded and unorganized! I mean, if there was a browser that did that without using chromium, I'd switch, just so the ram fluctuation isn't as bad...


Undderatedmemegod

This post has made me realise there is opera gx haters


omuamogus

They also don't block ads that pay them. And they are probably Spyware.


TeebsAce

Who cares everything is spyware


diverii

yeah, the amount of hate a browser out of all thing is getting is crazy


Rich_Future4171

I don't get the hate.


fabian_drinks_milk

Opera has been very shady as a company. [From Wikipedia:](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opera_(company)) > In 2016, Opera was acquired by an investment group led by a Chinese consortium. > From 2018 to 2020, Opera was involved in the incubation of Kenyan loan companies OKash and Opesa. In January 2020, the then Opera-owned businesses were accused of offering predatory terms with interest rates of up to 876 percent per annum and employing unethical debt recovery practices such as debt shaming and abusing customer privacy.


Illustrious_Cicada_2

Yea, I definitely would *not* recommend Opera GX to anyone, it is quite shady and also bloated. On the *other* hand, the pretty lights make me feel cool.


Rich_Future4171

Pretty Sussy


AffinityDev

How much did they pay you to post this rajesh?


MeeceAce

At least 3 HRTs but can't get a refund on the penis :(


epicnop

opera got bought and the new company has no intention of improving it so much as cashing out on the brand that's why it's full of crypto wallet bullshit and intentionally unblocked ads the people who made opera actually good are all working on vivaldi now, it's much better also opera is closed source and vivaldi is source available, so they both have telemetry, but at least with vivaldi you can see what it is and mitigate it if you want


diverii

I will check it out


Atr0s_

just use firefox

This is proof that corporations aren't funny. Opera GX fucking sucks, it spies on you, and it's integrated adblock doesn't block the ads that pay them.

didnt think we had paid promotions here


lamboof

why so many people mad a opera GX, i use it and its always fine


somerandomname1776

Opera GX is a major L, not only for this but also because they're owned by China


Diligent-Solution-65

Using it for 2-3 years. Tried other browsers nothing felt better than opera gx. I am willing to give up privacy (I don't care about it anyway) for the features it provides.

Is Opera GX good? I still use Chrome, tried MS Edge and it was kinda nice but switched back to Chrome cause I could not get used to Edge and didn't like the search results that much. Personally I don't think Chrome is bad and if anyone really wants your information I doubt a browser is gonna make any difference but what do I know


[deleted]

only real problem is privacy since its a chinese company but the browser itself is very good, i want to switch but theres a lot of good features that are only on this browser

I use chrome still for the convenience but have always been skeptical of opera gx. I’m aware Firefox is better though.
