i used to like opera over firefox till i played with its settings and made it how i wanted, i chose it over opera cause i liked how easy the addons were and i liked the type of addons available, so there ya go, just one reason to explain 1 persons preference, everyone has their own and which one is more popular doesnt change anything since they all browse the same internet.
I get where you're coming from, but those extensions for Firefox are incredibly annoying
in that the catalog of extensions is not organized into extensions that work on Firefox v2
and Firefox v1.5. Half the extensions give errors saying it "only works on v0.9 to v1.0"
and with the project being open source, no one gives two hoots about this or ever sorts
out that catalog of (more than 20,000) extensions. I bet not even 10,000 of them actually
work on v2.0.0.3 of Firefox.
With Opera, it just works straight away from one single small exe setup file. You don't even
need to bother with extensions, but you could, Opera has extensions, they are called "widgets".

Don't bother to argue with me, I will only refer you to the above figures.In fact there needs to be a "Suck It" site like Digg where the most inane trash gets to #1.
If I knew how to design it I would be developing it myself.

No offence, but IMHO someone who can't even make a website is in no position to judge or compare any software
I can make a website, but not one where people would vote, with a ratings system
and all the other server side stuff this type of website would entail.
Anyway, even if I couldn't make a website, why does the lack of that knowledge tie
into the knowledge of web browsers and my experiences with them? I know at least
one programmer who knows nothing about the internet, he is still a programmer.

ALl you can tell is that the 'skin' or layout of non-adjustable bars/buttons is more preferable to your liking in Opera than in Firefox, thats probably all...

See above about extensions.
I never change the skin on any browser or program I use, it might as well not even
have the functionality for all I care. Its web pages I am looking at, not the frame of
my web browser.
