    So far OK.

    Features missing:
    - custom search engines. Sometimes I want to search piratebay or answers or dict.leo.org or wikipedia specifically, it saves a step before going to that website although I could add them to speed dial
    - middle click on back button doesn't open previously visited page in new tab
    - rightclick > view image

    I'm on Opera 12.17. Way better than the Teletubby version 22 that I test when it gets upgraded. The took a perfectly functional Opera 12 and dumbed it down to Opera Next. Sure O12 needed some compatibility work but not what it ended up as..

    I've had Firefox issues for a few weeks. I finally discovered the problem.
    OCSP is enabled by default in Firefox and disabled by default in chrome. Not sure of Opera.

    Wow, talk about a bloody change.
    29.0 is all "Chrome-lookie"
    I almost freaked when I saw Opera in the top left corner, the Firefox has gone Lucky its the name of the thread (and i'm well off topic).

    I also use Peerblock, currently blocking 1912634034 IP's

    Ctrl and something has changed the language LOL

    edit : Got it, Ctrl + Shift changes the language...

    Maybe you should check out the daily Firefox crashes.

    I've been running it for a while, and it seems very stable.
    Much more than my system, that is rarely powered down, or rebooted.
    Running adblock and ghostery, no probs.

    edit : runing 28.0, its updating now.

    I'm still using 12 here (v12.17)
    I'm on 20 - the KHTML offspring.

    All the functionality I need is find as you type (need to press CTR+F in Opera but I'm using so much of other PCs I got used to it), adblock plus. There's no bugmenot for 20 but I can go to firefox for that.

    The problem with Firefox is that there's no per tab process and with many tabs it crashes.

    I also occasionally use IE for legacy sites.

    I don't like Chrome - don't like UI design, don't like the phoning home part.
