Opera is the Norwegian-born web browser that's been kicking around since 1995, founded by a couple of smart guys who got tired of slow, clunky internet and decided to fix it. They pioneered game-changing features like tabbed browsing, Speed Dial, and built-in ad blocking, and today Opera packs a free VPN, sidebar messaging, crypto wallet, and even a battery saver, all without nagging you for updates every five minutes. The Opera GX, the gamer edition, lets you throttle CPU and RAM usage so your browser doesn't hog resources while you're owning noobs.
Unlike the corporate clowns turning June into a mandatory rainbow circus, Opera keeps its mouth shut on politics and just delivers a fast, private browsing experience – no virtue-signaling required. Chinese-owned since 2016, it's blissfully immune to Western DEI nonsense and ESG lectures, focusing on actual innovation instead of pronoun training. And Opera GX? It drops savage "real Pride Month" memes that roast the forced corporate pandering, proving you can be edgy and fun without selling your soul to the woke mob.
