The Opera Thread

edit: anon what's the use of NotScript? ad blocking? why not using Opera's built-in one?

Security. It offers a much more versatile way of whitelisting JavaScript for sites.

I'm using this one also: Opera URLFilter Downloader -

Okay, I've given up to that. It is uncontrollable, I mean it just blocks something that I don't want to. NoAds is just fine by me, it can block external scripts and shit...

Which "source" have you been using? With Fanboy's list I've only ever had just a couple of false positives.

[simexi]

Fanboy's list. Don't know where that URLFilter downloads it. But anyway, NoAds works better.

WebGL and Hardware Acceleration

Hardware acceleration!

Nice info anon. Can't wait for the stable release to come.

@dreamer
you probably don't need downloadhelper. I use jdownloader, which i consider the best (so far) and wouldn't expect any extension to beat it. And yes, having multiple extensions does slow down the browser. Before the extensions, I had 108 or something like that of user.js files. I hope you can imagine how slow it was running. Startup/browsing/opening or closing tabs and it consumed with no tabs running approx 160 ram. It usually got up to 500 or more MB after a couple of hours.

As for the extensions, i only use the following
looptube
noscripts
snap links
translator
open-in-background-with-long-press

hi, wanna know that is that safe to enable email client in opera and use it, will other tracker detect my email address if I use it as my email client frequently ?

[anon]

No, for obvious reasons they can't read your address or mail...
