now with built-in ad blocker
I love this browser so much
>website provides entertainment, free of charge.
>someone goes out of their way to disallow a website from making revenue from sponsors to allow the service to continue.
Why?

You mean something it had years ago that they threw out with all the other useful features when they switched to Blink?

Didn't think so.

It's FOSS you giant misinformed retard.

A completely irrelevant gimmick. Anybody with half a brain is just going to install uBlock Origin anyway, because it has a lot more features and is generally just better. Normies don't use fucking Opera, so it's not for them either.

I'll use that article to floss my teeth and then spit in your general direction.

1) malware
2) ads treat users like braindead morons and try to sell lies
3) performance: rendering, downloading, etc
4) eating bandwidth (costly on mobile) and taking up screen space
5) distracting
6) breaking feeling of integrity/immersion of the website's UI by visually standing out
7) inherently useless to me: I've never bought anything from an ad, and refuse to buy products I see lots of marketing for because I've experienced those to be the worst
8) fuck marketing people and ad makers for being manipulative sons of bitches that use shit like pics of smiling people to invoke a sense of happiness to win you over etc etc
9) pics of random smiling people, playing kids, etc in places where they're not relevant (which is almost everywhere) make me puke
10) the amount and intensity of ads is opposite related to the actual quality of the product because a good product doesn't need shitty marketing

>Opera
>Love
I love Opera Mini on mobile. I can use my free 100 MB Netzclub SIM but can browse normally having used 100 MB for 1 GB.
Opera desktop can also be helpful, if you're on 32 Kbit pages will load in 3 instead of 6 minutes. If you get used to it this will seem as highspeed for you.
>browser decides to ship with a pre installed plug in
>everyone praises them
Are you really that lazy? Just install ublock and you have the same thing.
>>53475247
Yeah I always found it funny how I will have an aversion to purchase of whatever and ad shows because the product then feels tainted
