I've been using Opera on a Macbook for about a year, and have been generally happy with it's configurability although it has worse battery life than I'd like. I switched to it when Chrome mucked up the "click-to-play" function: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/chrome/xPcpRBzyPcc https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/chrome/xPcpRB... But like many others, I'm thinking this acquisition might be a good reason to switch again. I've been trying out Safari today. I appreciate how "snappy" it feel, and it seems more processor-efficient as well. Scrolling on Reddit (among other sites) quickly caused the fans to roar for Chrome and Opera, but Safari doesn't seem to break a sweat. So far, the thing that bothers me most is that my fingers are currently hard wired to shift-click links when I want to open them in a new window. And every time I do this, Safari silently "lobs" the link into the hidden reading list rather than opening it. Is there any way to configure Safari to have shift-click open a new window, or do I have no choice but to retrain my fingers? ps. I was excited to see that the HckrNews extension works well on Safari: http://hckrnews.com/about.html#extensions http://hckrnews.com/about.html#extensions
