Is anyone running the Opera browser on Centos 7 or 6? While not available in a yum-repository, it seems to be available as a snap-package. Not familiar with those yet but curious if the browser is worthwhile to run. I have generally found Firefox less useful/compatible than Chromium but would also like alternatives, particularly since Opera defaults to a VPN-connection.

It is available in opera's yum repository:
[opera] name=Opera packages type=rpm-md baseurl=https://rpm.opera.com/rpm gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=https://rpm.opera.com/rpmrepo.key enabled=1
I only run it very occasionally, in cases where I want a second login session to AWS that's different from my primary Firefox session, etc.

Although not on CentOS, I have run Opera for some time as a result of my dislike of some of the politics elsewhere. It has some unique features but I have not found it to be as compatible as Firefox, there are situations where it does not work and Firefox does. Unfortunately I haven't gone to the effort to categorize those experiences, they aren't too frequent.

It seems that Opera does not run under Centos 6 since the dependencies won't install? I get the following messages:

Yes, it will not work on EL6, it requires newer glibc and gtk3. It's time to leave EL6 behind (or stick to Firefox).

OK, thank you. I do indeed plan to migrate this laptop to CentOS 7 this or next week...

If its a laptop; I would suggest to wait a bit[*] (EL6 has still support) and migrate directly to EL8 ...

I'd wait for EL8.1 to be honest, EL8 won't be much usable without EPEL repo and the various extra repos for multimedia etc which will take time.
