    Is there a reason that opera isn’t listed in browsers, or that OpenOffice isn’t included in office suites? I thought they had a relatively decent userbase.

    Also Reddit -> Lemmy/Mbin could be added in social media.

        So I’ve not paid close attention to opera in over a decade, clearly, because I just checked wikipedia and didn’t even know that it was chromium now.

        I don’t have a problem with using a Chinese owned app - I’m neither tankie nor sinophobe, an increasingly lonely position - but I can see now why opera wouldn’t be included. Thanks!

          And even if ownership wasn’t a concern, Opera completely lost me when they let go most of their original developers at around the same time. Vivaldi is the spiritual successor with many original developers. I count that as a win in the ethical direction anyway (even if they still run chromium under the hood as well.)

      OpenOffice for all intents and purposes has been dead for a decade, but LibreOffice (included in the graphic) is a fork which remains active and has community and is the de facto successor.
