Thread: Migrating to Opera

  1. #1

    Migrating to Opera

    Hello guys.I've finally decided it's better for me to move to Opera.
    Reason is simple:
    firefox=over bloated and resource hungry;
    chrome= kinda insecure;

    I need to know two things before I move.
    1.How to remove adds.
    2.How to make a easy accessible bookmark tab in Opera just like Firefox has,instead of going to the global menu(using 10.53)

    *OnE oF uS, oNe Of Us!*

    1. replace your current urlfilter.ini with Fanboy's Adblock List for Opera
    2. Opera had a customizable bar you could drag bookmarks to, if I remember correctly. Shift+F12 -> Toolbars -> enable the Personal Bar.

    I would recommend to stay on firefox, the next version (3.7) will get faster by putting the addons in processes.

    Bookmarks -> Manage bookmarks, then you can drag folders from there to the bar.

    One more thing before I go to sleep.
    How do I add the bookmarks directly without accessing the bookmarks tab?

    You mean adding the bookmarks you already have to that bar without going to Bookmarks -> Manage? I don't know if that's possible. I'm still on 10.10, though...

    Never mind I found how.
    In 10.53 you have a bookmark+ option in the menu that adds the current tab as a bookmark.

    well, this makes me wanna try it out, too
    used it for a short time some years ago but went back to the mozilla stuff dü to the lack of addons. anyway there're a few things i need:

    • some sort of noscript
    • disable image animations
    • disable referer (not so important)
    • something similar to downthemall
    • addblock with custom entries like '.swf' etc.
    • custom bookmarks file location so i can put it on a network drive and use it with different machines
    • useragent faking

    • BlockIt
    • That's built-in
    • That's built-in
    • Not possible
    • That's built-in
    • You can relocate the config folder, I guess
    • That's built-in, but very basic, it only lets you spoof older IE and Firefox versions. No custom strings.
