What benefits does Opera have over firefox?

Thanks for the info!

Advantages? Not sure, but if you web-develop this means Opera browser can be added to your site-test-browsers and without the irritations (or cost). I hope it doesn't have trackers, but we'll find out soon enough.

Thanks again for the info, much appreciated!

Seems less of a hog than FF but I've already gone back to FF. I like/need to block images and drag links to tabs. Other than that I like what I see, esp the integrated stuff, all there and still pretty lightweight.

Dragging links to tabs is as simple as pressing the left mouse button over the link, moving the cursor to the tab bar and releasing the button again.
