annoyance: I have to keep Firefox installed on my Mint machine for the infrequent times I actually want to watch Netflix/Hulu because Linux Opera doesn't do DRM streaming content for some reason

That's literally my only complaint about Opera on any OS but it's a weird, annoying omission

@ShugoWah oh if you want flash in Opera and can't figure it out hmu

@SwooshyCueb It's not that, it's literally that Linux Opera doesn't support streaming content with copyright protection

@SwooshyCueb yeah that sounds right

apparently you can do some dumb bullshit re: shadily downloading some kind of chromebook recovery image and extracting a DRM-enabled lib from it or something but fuck that, haha. I'll just watch it in Firefox

Follow

@SwooshyCueb I wish I didn't hate Firefox's interface or I'd just go back over to that, but I just like way too much stuff about Opera, it's a -very- good browser aside from that this one edge case
