      The amount of folks I see use Opera GX “gaming browser” because some influencer said so…

          It downloads RAM for you, sells your browsing data to major gaming companies, helps you stay on top of your Twitch subs by disabling the ability to block web notifications.

          You know, a gaming browser.

              Or better yet, it adds LEDs to your web browsing experience (in-page and inside PWAs) and the colours scheme is synchronized with your computer’s LED.

          From what I’ve seen it has a lil sidebar that lets you limit the resources available to it. Also a load of shortcuts to giveaways and storefronts. It’s also hideous, as all gamer stuff should be.

          Honestly it gives me more “lowspec” vibes, than “gaming”, and there are far better ways to browse on low spec machines.

        I’m still shocked at how many seemingly tech-literate people use and defend Brave because of influencers.
