But hang on... what's that non-chocolate stuff on the right-hand side of the picture? ENERGY BARS?  that stuff can kill you!
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

...has inexplicably and suddenly become my new browser of choice. Just like that.
Sorry Chrome. It was good while it lasted. Except for the bits where you used up all my RAM and then kept crashing.
cheers

I thought that's what people were complaining about regarding the new FF.

I've always used Firefox on a daily basis as my main browser (although their resent change in the add-ins was a problem but its getting better and the plugins I use are being updated).
For web development/debugging I like to use Chrome.
Opera is really good too, and I use it's built in VPN.

I really like Opera but the inevitable problem is that so many sites only support the "big 3" and therein lies the problem.
Microsoft have completely lost the plot with the IE/Edge development path. Chrome used to be great but now just eats memory. Firefox, which also used to be great, is now just bloatware. But because they established the big market shares back in the days when they were better, they're the ones that get supported - it's a Catch 22.
A quick glance at browser market share stats shows how valuable what I would call "legacy popularity" is.
It's a similar situation to Android - Android used to be cool, now it gets progressively worse due to the pointless tinkering that comes with every "upgrade" but because it was good for long enough for it to have become the only phone/tab OS in town, it's difficult to see how it will ever get dislodged.

It's been years since the last time I ran into something that didn't work in a niche browser (probably not since I stopped using the Presto version of Opera). Since then the only time I've seen a site acknowledging a 3rd party browser is one of my CC companies having an outdated browser version check that's faster on the uptake about new Vivaldi releases than the update notifier in the browser itself.

It's nowhere near as frequent as it used to be but you still get the odd site where something doesn't work in Opera. There a couple of sites I use that will only play nicely with IE or Chrome.
It's a pain because it means Opera is my main browser rather than my only browser as I'd prefer it to be.

IYDMA What sites?
In several years of using first New Opera and then Vivaldi as my main browser at home I've never encountered a single issue.

There are a couple of fairly prominent UK bookmakers' sites that don't behave too well in Opera. Admittedly, these are pretty complex sites with a mix of labyrinthine page routing, multiple live feeds, video streaming and some (hopefully) pretty heavy security wrappers - so there's plenty of scope for things to go wrong with them.
