    Hey do any of you guys use opera browser or is it just me?
    It's a great browser, even though i prefer chrome. i use both.

    It's still chrome at its base. Also, this is purely personal, but I avoid opera after finding out they're funding themselves by giving out shady predatory loans in countries like kenya and nigeria. and again this is a personal thing, but if they're pulling that I don't wanna know what they're doing with the data they're scraping from users going through their vpn...

    personally i've been liking vivaldi -- it's (another) chromium fork, but it's run by one of the OG Opera founders

    Just a head's up, this indicates that you need to set SCFG->External Programs->Message Editors->DCTEdit->Strip FidoNet Kludges to "Yes".

    Ah. SBBS v2.3 might still've had that option (I don't recall off-hand), but good to know.
