I can't figure out what Opera's deal is now, with that weird video enhancement thing. Lucid, or whatever it's called.

ABSOLUTELY NOBODY asked for in-browser video sharpening.

How much development time and expertise does that kind of thing take, anyway? Whatever the fuck Lucid Video actually does, it must have taken thousands of person-hours to develop, of which many hundreds were contributed by people with Masters-degree levels of education and experience, in image processing.

Why, in the name of all that is good and holy in this misbegotten, shit-crusted world would they spend all that effort on that shit, INSTEAD OF MAKING THEIR OWN BROWSER ENGINE AGAIN???

That would HAVE to be easier, right? Maybe it would be pretty hard, given the commitment you'd have to make, in order to be absolutely sure you were making a product that didn't have huge security holes. But I'm just saying, NOBODY wanted whatever this Lucid Video thing is. At least just save all the effort of doing that, by just...not doing it.

opera isn't opera anymore, it's chinese-owned now (since 2016). if you want a browser by one of the original founders of the 'old' opera, look at vivaldi... although it, too, is chromium-based.
