To be fair, Opera in the 2000's was craming every single feature they could think about in their browser.

So sure, they got some interesting features before the others but they also had hundreds of useless features cluttering the UI.

But it was still fast and didn't gobble up RAM so much (well other than memory leaks, but none of the competitors were free of those either and IE crashing would also crash the desktop because it was the same instance of the same app for some reason).
