Built-In Opera Features That Firefox Needs Extensions For

Built-In Opera Features That Firefox Needs Extensions ForIf you make the switch to Opera from Firefox you might start missing some of your favorite extensions. One thing that I missed when using Opera was the ability to minimize to the System Tray which Firefox has an extension for. Days later I found out that Opera had the ability to do that natively by simply pressing Ctrl-H!

If you are an Opera user then head on over and view this page. Initially your eyes will bug out from the colors the site chose but if you look quickly you might walk away without any permanent damage :D . The list is pretty long but there are several extensions mentioned that don’t have any counterpart in Opera. Who knows, you may be able to find some features in Opera that you didn’t even know existed.

    Opera is a full-featured browser I love, if I have some compatibility problems with a few websites I use Firefox. The extensions are really nice but the only one I ever use are the ones that mimic Opera’s native features. When I first looked at Firefox I considered it as a Internet Explorer “clone”. Meaning it did the things pretty much the same way Explorer did. Opera was and is even today an innovator.

    Why will u want some feature that u will never use. Better have that as an extension so that those who want it will take it. Opera was and is an innovator. This comment seems good but then firefox is made by the people for the people.

    I do not know how people can live without an Adblock Filterset updater. Why do you like looking at ads?
