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 HDCP or w/e

@ShugoWah I think it's called widivine and I hate it

@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

@ShugoWah @SwooshyCueb it's the same issue as chromium. they are licensed to distribute the web drm modules only on certain platforms and only in certain distributions.

web drm is a fucking plague and fuck the w3c people who thought it was an acceptable compromise.
