It’s made by folks that once worked on the original Opera (back when it was still good).

Basing their new browser on Chromium is unfortunate, but the spirit of old Opera is there: customizability and focus on features for power users.

It’s the browser I’d be using if I abandoned Firefox for whatever reason.

It’s not even about the lower specs, it’s the optimization in general.

My PC is a little old, but still fine for most games up to medium settings.
But when I tried FF XVI, which is mentioned in the article, I couldn’t get anything close to acceptable performance with everything turned as low as possible and looking like shit.

Because for some reason, no matter what I try, Windows 10 desktop is laggy as hell on Qemu, and smooth out of the box on VirtualBox.
