I've tried Opera, it sucks about as hard as IE.

did you get the url right?

FF is pussy compared to Opera! :)

Yes, it is cock

Opera sucks sure there's an ebuild for opera but it just get dropped to /opt, it's statically linked, and it's CLOSED SOURCE, which means that it is a BINARY package.

Yeah, what's up with that

Which means.. what, exactly?

Opera's quite nice in some ways, but the UI pisses me off more than it pleases me. The only thing I prefer is how the address bar and navigation buttons are inside each tab, rather than above the tabs. Otherwise, there's really not a lot that Opera is useful for which Firefox isn't, especially with extensions. That said, Opera Mini or whatever it's called, is really cool.

Making it available for free (as in beer) was a step in the right direction, but it's a shame it's not open source and free as in speech.

Never mind, I'm happier with my Konqueror anyway.

Why, how often do you access the Firefox source code? FWIW, Firefox is also one of the worst examples of a project run "by the people", too, the majority of code changes and general direction of the project is limited to a few (~30?) at the top (some of whom are real asses like Asa). In practice, it does not appear that truly "open source" practices in the browser space get you any further than KHTML.

Fair enough if you prefer Firefox, but remember that Opera's UI only takes a bit of time to modify to your pleasing. For an app you spend much of your life in, I think that's very important and can make you very efficient, and that this advantage can make the initially kludgy UI more forgivable. I have countless weird little mouse gestures, UI changes, keyboard shortcuts, menu changes, per-site settings etc in Opera that I just couldn't cope without now.

Because that makes it a BINARY PACKAGE.

I CANT GO VROOM VROOM!!! WITH OPERA

the fact that there is more than one vendor auditing the code makes it more trustworthy to the user's security. opera is only going to be supported as long as the company chooses to support it AND it is around to support opera. if we had the source code as well as the liberty to improve it, opera's future isn't dependant upon one company.

Whatever goes on in your theoretical world, have fun with it. Whether it's through obscurity or not, Opera is by all practical measures the most secure major desktop browser available, with Firefox somewhat disproportionately problematic compared to stuff like KHTML and Safari.

Enjoy eating up the Mozilla.org propaganda. Also, Opera is one of the oldest browser companies around, outlasting everything but Netscape. They also have a pretty profitable business with their mobile browsers, so you don't have to worry about them going anywhere soon.
