Opera and WebKit: a personal perspective
- wiredfool 14y agoA good quote from the article: One rendering engine will go. Some lament that. Some of those who lament it seemed never to test in it, excluded it from their demos, or actively blocked it.
- gcb0 14y agowhat i will probably miss most about opera are the features that will vanish for several versions until they (ever?) catch-up.
- ohazi 14y ago"Opera has 300 million active users" I call bullshit. If Opera wants to make a claim like that they're going to have to aggressively defend their counting strategy. Firefox: "According to Mozilla, Firefox counts with over 450 million users around the world." [1] Chrome: "At the 2012 Google I/O developers' conference, Google claimed that there were 310 million active users of Chrome, almost double the number in 2011, which was stated as 160 million active users."

- Hermel 14y agoopera is very strong on Mobile phones (incl. old Symbian Nokias). 300 million is a lot, but within the possible. this comment was written in opera.
- AdrianRossouw 14y agoalso, their mini browser directs stuff through their servers.. which means it's very possible for them to have a pretty accurate view of how many users they have.
