This is one of those things where they've run out of crap to shovel into the product.
It's not innovation, it's stinking of desperation.

I do my own form of stress relief while web browsing.
I am all for mindfulness or stress relief. I don’t need it in a browser, but I can see it being helpful for some.
Carrying your devices and desk. This seems to be targeted for some one who needs relief at desk. Not a sub for gym or walk.
Missed opportunity to make “your girls” the “Swedish Bikini Team” when talking about a Swedish browser (yes, I’m that old 😁).
If you need relief from screen time at your desk, the simplest course of action would be to turn off the screen for 10 minutes instead of putting some "mindfulness" themed crap on it. Also there is a thing called "getting up for a minute" which I highly recommend.
That’s why Norway is one the Happiest countries in the world I guess and the U.S. flounders. Personally I enjoy chilled music or Above and Beyond - Flow State while I’m working.
LOL! That talking pus-bag inspired my home camera network name: “Toobin My Jeffrey”
I don’t need to do any of it. I meditate 2 hrs in the morning and other 2 at night. But, every one is different, more options to different people. You do you, what ever works. Let people have more choices.
I thought I was on a different thread. Macrumors has it all.
The main thing I'm concerned with in a web browser is that it works well while using the minimum computer resources. I'm also concerned with privacy.
From Wikipedia:
As of the end of 2023, Opera Software was 72.4% owned by Kunlun, a Chinese public company, making it a subsidiary of that company. Opera CEO Zhou Yahui is a controlling shareholder in Kunlun.
There's an odd ownership structure with one org owning the IP the other managing distribution.
I confirmed the Kunlun ownership by checking their SEC filings. Here's one example.
Took a look. Sadly the interface isn't all clear and glassy looking like the image at the top of the article. Plus there's a whole lot of 'send us information' toggles and AI helpers and Social Media integrations right in the browser.
