The amount of folks I see use Opera GX "gaming browser" because some influencer said so...
What the fuck is a gaming browser. Browsers show web pages.
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.
Dude, you forgot that it had built in led control. We all should know by know that gaming = leds
Fun fact: it turns out that all those LEDs rely (in Windows at least) on a super-insecure driver written by a hobbyist who last updated it in the mid-2000s and has since disavowed it.
Steve didn’t really do his due diligence on that video, a lot of RGB software hasn’t used it for awhile, including one he said do. It certainly used to be a big problem and there’s definitely still holdouts
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.
