Yeah but it is nice cause I usually uninstall utorrent when trying to clear up space because I don't use it much but having it in opera makes it handy for random ones.
does it have a download statusbar?

uTorrent is tiny, there's no need to remove it.
[QUOTE=Yumyumbublegum;20163951]does it have a download statusbar?[/QUOTE]
Yeah?
I've been using Opera since the 7.5 version (back in '01)... never looked back ever since... Opera is my main browser, Firefox the second.
Looking forward to the final version! :D
Is there a way to set multiple home pages?
[QUOTE=Panda X;20164646]Is there a way to set multiple home pages?[/QUOTE]
What do you mean? Like, have multiple tabs open at startup?

If you just want multiple tabs to be open at startup, you can just save a session and have that session load when you open Opera.
Does this have the adblock and WOT addons like firefox and chrome?
If so it may be time for a change

It doesn't have "addons" like Firefox.
For adblock:

For WOT... well, I found one UserJS which implements itself into search engines to give you ratings of sites. Check out the blog here:

That right there is the reason why I won't be making the switch.

Addons are overrated. Never have I wanted there to be addons for Opera since it does everything I want out of the box. Addons only make browsers slower and less secure.
This looks awful
I don't use ridiculously JavaScript intensive pages 24/7 so I'm happy on Firefox.

By your logic, you should never install software on your PC since it can make it slower and less secure.

It's not just the JavaScript engine that's faster. The latest beta boasts a faster and better rendering engine and graphics library.

I can't get over Opera's interface. I think it's terrible. While it's the only thing I don't like about it, it's pretty big and keeps me from using it.

[QUOTE=LarparNar;20170155]What about the interface don't you like?[/QUOTE]
It just doesn't seem as smooth and integrated into itself as Firefox or Chrome. Especially Chrome. I don't like how the panel on the left (that contains bookmarks, history, etc.) looks, which has to do with it's color. I mentioned this earlier but I don't like how the main menu is integrated into the tab bar because I keep it hidden until needed which hides the whole menu in my case.
It's just not appealing.

Change the skin? Turn on the menu bar?
Eventually Firefox will look similar. I think it looks great
It's options menu also feels disordered and not unified.

Now you're nitpicking
Maybe I'm missing this, but is there a hotkey to open and hide the panel?

[QUOTE=MisterMooth;20170215]Now you're nitpicking[/QUOTE]
That's a legitimate complaint. I find it hard to navigate.

So?
I don't care unless there is a very, very noticeable difference for standard browsing, and for me, any such change would be from internet speed; from being at 512/128kbps to 64/64kbps when over my limit
