the webkit+blink opera reminds me of the early days of google chrome – it was fast and lightweight, but really buggy and lacking features, back then i had high hopes for chrome, which in turn became bloated and slow – it opens fast, the first few days opens tabs really fast, but after a week its a pain in the ass to use it
now opera looks like its taking up the same path – its lightweight and fast, lacks some features, has a handful of bugs, and as the bugs are fixes, it will become slow and bloated, but only time will tell if my expectations will come true or not
