What it is
A Chromium-based browser from Opera Software. A free VPN and a sidebar for messengers and music are built into the browser, so people who would otherwise install several extensions use it as one package. It has been around for nearly thirty years, starting in Norway.
When to pick this
If you want a VPN or messengers handled inside the browser. If you play games and need to cap resource use, Opera GX is the same company’s other option.
Details
Built-in VPN
Turn it on in settings to change your apparent region. No account, no fee. It only covers traffic inside the browser, not other programs.
Sidebar
Pin messengers and music services beside the page so you never open a separate window.
Chrome extensions
Being Chromium-based, it installs Chrome extensions directly.
