Put this video at 1.25 speed and he sounds normal. Very good browser btw in my opinion.

I love the idea of selling stuff to "Gamers" completely unrelated to video games. Can I interest you in this lovely washer/dryer combo.. for Gamers? What about boutique coffee for Gamers? Car insurance for Gamers? Sex toys for Gamers? (That last one is almost certainly already a thing)

I think it's unique... it's free... I think it can get better. The features including a built in vpn and ambient music is something you can't get with the other browsers. I like that they are making noise with this and maybe it can get others to better their browsers. I'm gonna dload and use this right now. Might just use that as my main!
-
You glossed over the only feature that got my attention - the built in VPN. Is it good? I've looks at other VPNs and they almost all have a monthly sub, and the one I tested didn't even seem to work properly. Does the VPN in Opera GX do the job?

Killer gamery feature: Discord sidebar. Given how much of a pain Discord is on Linux, and you should probably just run the web version anyway, but you also don't want it to be mixed in with the mess of open tabs. Killer of all features: no Linux.

I got a opera gx ad while watching ur video
-
I used to use opera. I started somewhere around 2018 and then switched to gx when that came due to the ram and network limiter it has. It had this annoying bug though that they never patched that prevented me from opening to many tabs so I switched to Vivaldi
-
Idk how I feel about a built in vpn tbh
-
pihole is the nicer adblocker that isn't easily detected
-
I'm not saying this video is good or bad since I don't have a lot of relevant knowledge, but I wish that youtube like and dislike is still visible since on stuff like tech tips their trust worthiness is so apparent in the like to dislike ratio and it could affect my decisions
-
Warning! You mention it's developed in Norway (with EU privacy laws) but that were the good old times. Opera is now, since 2016, in Chinese hands, and still, as you mentioned closed source. So I wouldn't trust a cookie to it!
-
I like it
-
Your video is so quiet your at -17 db meaning 17 decibels too quiet.. i got to crank the volume to max to hear you and when the commercial came on it blew my ears drums out.
-
At least Opera GX is better than MICROSOFT EDGE
-
It do be a bit slow though
-
I use it for Every Job and Game. It Doesn't Cause Me Problems, I used to use opera but now operagx is the first

vivaldi is better because it doesn't spy on you
