Google Chrome vs. Opera

It's the primary browser of choice for internet browsing and general internet exploration. It's not ideal for programming. I've had several scenarios where I've had to program browser behaviour and I found Edge to be more programmable - of course it stems from the fact that Edge is made by the same company that makes the OS for the devices where I've programmed. But for compatibility across multiple devices, consistency across sessions and user activity, and integration with other Google products - Chrome is unmatched.

• Incognito mode is really just that.
• Fast Updates and fast browsing performance.
• Stability.
• Very granular filtering options.
• Multitude of extensions are available.

• Not about Chrome per se, but Google search is fast losing relevance and Gemini AI results are useless more than half the time. If search and information gathering moves to other paltforms, then eventually the reasons I open Chrome will reduce

Ease of use and functionality is unmatched. Some of the functionality reduces on a Macbook, for example, when I can't use the windows shortcut Alt + Tab to switch between windows. I use multiple profiles on Chrome - a personal and a work profile, and Windows makes it very easy to switch between the two. Still, I've been a user for 10+ years, and I see nothing that matches the functionality, integrations across apps and devices, ease of use and the deeply entrenched habits.

Firefox has a clunky update mechanism. Although Firefox was pretty quick, I did not care for the look of it. Opera was not as compatible nor as fast as Google Chrome. Tor is slow but is used only for private browsing as needed.
