That's exactly what people said with their "Designed for IE" websites back during 2000 to 2004. Whatever happened to coding according to web standards? This isn't a small boutique shop that cannot afford testing, this is a huge multinational company.

Opera is very definitely dead. > Whatever happened to coding according to web standards? So by "web standards" do you mean "older web standards supported by an outdated browser"?

O Firefox had about 3% share at the end of 2004, even less before that. >Opera is very definitely dead Huh what? Opera is still under active development. http://blogs.opera.com/desktop/ http://blogs.opera.com/desktop/ >So by "web standards" do you mean "older web standards supported by an outdated browser"? No, I mean current web standards.

    Yes, but that is based on Chromium, so it really isn't Opera. I assumed you meant "classic" Opera, since I would assume that the Chromium-based product would render sites equivalently to Chromium.

      Opera is not dead; Presto is dead.

  This is not an app, it's a web site. There's no reason for it to not work in web browsers - even obscure browsers like lynx. And this website reliably crashes Google's own Chrome[1] on iOS on an iPhone 4s. It's fucking stupid that we've gone so far backwards with web design.
