Unfortunately, the Chinese are majority stakeholders in Opera, as of 2016.

I took Google Chrome and Opera both off of my system. I installed Brave and SlimJet. SlimJet will have to be browser of choice for most Internet browsing unless Brave finally has their act together because their earlier incarnations were difficult to work with.

I still like Palemoon though and I use it for my financial transactions, but we'll see how Brave does. If it starts performing to my liking I may make the final switch.
