Firefox also has been "chasing trends". Pocket, VPN, Relay, OS, and others. Maybe their conception of "trending" is different from Opera's one, and maybe more focused on what they understand of how a browser can be made more useful and the toolset around it. Or not. In any case, the trendy picks by Opera are shadier, and the next one can be harmful for most of their users.

- galaxyLogic 3y agoAn interesting piece of information from the article is this: "Hindenburg is an investment firm that researches publicly-traded companies and shorts their stocks if they find sufficient evidence of investor fraud before releasing its report. Since Hindenburg directly profits from the company's decline in stock, it's not an impartial source of information "
