And Opera is the only one who got tab switching with Ctrl+Tab right. That's the single most important feature which made me use Opera as my default browser. (For dev tools, just press Ctrl+Shift+I instead of F12).

Interesting. One of my biggest issues with Opera is its seemingly random tab switching order. If I open ten tabs and want to go through them one by one, I first have to go through all my old tabs. There used to be an option to change this, but they removed it long ago :/

  Opera is switching tabs by "most recently used" order, just like Windows does for applications with Alt+Tab. That's exactly what I want, but if it confuses you, you can turn it off in the settings ("[x] Cycle tabs in most recently used order")

How does it work differently from Chrome?

  It switches tabs in most recently used order in Opera, similar to OS alt/cmd-tab behavior

In Firefox, enabling `browser.ctrlTab.previews` makes the Ctrl+Tab behaviour much nicer. Not comparing, just noting.

I concur. I could never use Chrome because I'd despise having to go through all my tabs just to get back to the last one I used. I tried a few plugins to get it to work but it never did. I can't remember what it was, but there were a few things about FF I could not get used to so I always went back to Opera.
