I was a mad Opera user about 25 years ago, it was the best browser by miles at the time. One feature it had was mouse gestures. Mouse gestures and uBlock origin are the only two extensions I can't love without, but these lists never mention them so I feel like the only one who uses them.
It's hard to explain how cool and quick it is to be able to control your browser with the mouse. Open/close tabs, navigate tabs, back/forward etc. It doesn't sound useful, I'm usually a mad keyboard shortcut fiend. But with web browsing in particular, your hand is already on the mouse, scrolling.
The specific extension I use is Gesturefy, I encourage people to install it and give mouse gestures a go.
Vivaldi (chromium) fully supports gestures and happens to have the best tab management on the market. Highly recommended.
