thanks for the best browser ever. this was the only convenient one, and it brought great ideas. but nowadays, the only religion is money; it has nothing to do with it.
it was nice to know and use you - had brilliant features and ideas but it's sad that with the current switch your usage rate will probably drop from this 1-2% to 0.00% -- very sad :(
nooooooooo
don't change the stability; popularity is not right.
farewell.
opera is dead - long live opera. (as a phantom fan ;-)
if i wanted a "core web browsing experience," i could download chrome; there is no reason to choose opera instead. the only alternative is firefox with many plugins - it will be slow, but better than not having these features at all. i would be willing to pay for opera with good features.
thanks for the good time and please put your old codebase under the gpl.
if i did not care about security and privacy - i'd use ie/ff/chromium/whatever. but i choose opera (v3~v12) - not by chance. if i'd like to use a chromium - i'd use it from the first hands, not just another clone of it. open-source presto/caracan so that someone could provide really secure, lite and standard-compliant browser.
