This has been ongoing for at least a month now. I use Vivaldi, another Chromium-based browser

The are aware of it.
They also have been fighting spammers and AI bots.

Never heard of Vivaldi before, looks kinda like Bravo, which is another Chrome based browser with privacy.

Vivaldi is made by the original developers of Opera. Once Opera sold out to the Chinese, there was no longer any point in using it. So consider Vivaldi to be a "love letter" of code the original user base of Opera.

Interesting.

Although Opera has never been a priority to use I always have multiple browsers installed for the sake of checking compatibility. In no particular order, I have Edge, Firefox, Chrome and Opera at available at any given moment. Perhaps Vivaldi may be a good replacement for Opera.

Now this thread took a turn.

But thanks for the update about the OQ. Good to know I'm not the only one.

Yea, it did make a turn.

Opera is still useful due to it's built-in Free VPN. It's the only browser I know of that does have this feature.
Which is helpful to test sites from other areas.

Indeed, I keep Opera Beta around for occasional VPN features -- although I also have a VPN Unlimited lifetime account as well (good value). But Vivaldi has definitely supplanted Opera for daily use in my toolbox -- it's my preferred Chromium engine browser, with Firefox (Gecko) and Safari (WebKit) around for compatibility testing.
