Swiftly browse the Internet and your favorite webpages with the help of this simplistic application that is designed with speed and practicability in mind
With all the activities you can perform on a computer, surfing the web has become more than a routine. Sure enough you need a web browser for this, with some that have managed to make a name for themselves throughout the years. This doesn’t mean alternatives like Opaque need to be overlooked, with a lot to offer.
Choose color theme and preferred search engine
On the visual side of of things, the interface is simplistic, but seems to fit in any environment, with cool textures for the upper toolbar, sufficient view space, and multiple color themes to choose from. More than that, tab support gives you the possibility to access different pages at the same time.
The default page you land on when the browser launches is one of several popular search engines. You can configure which to use from the settings panel, with options for DuckDuckGo, Bing, Google, and Yahoo!. In addition, the home page can be configured as well, to have a location of maximum interest to access at the press of a button.
Various security settings
While in the settings panel, you can dive deeper in the set of security options, which let you choose multimedia players to use, whether to allow plugins, load images, and other various configuration options. The default location of the cache can be changed, in case you manually want to clear it out from time to time.
Speed is decent, and you land on the requested page in the blink of an eye. Although it may seem a little unstable at first, the associated process gets split in multiple instances, thus creating a balance in resource consumption, for a better distribution.
However, Opaque can only be used for tasks of temporary importance, because there’s no built-in favorites manager so you can create quick access links for pages you use in the long run. Furthermore, history isn’t kept track of either, while this doesn’t necessarily affect practicality, since it can be used as a method to effortlessly clear your tracks.
A few last words
Bottom line is that with the variety of browser fitted with all kinds of features on which you don’t really relly, it’s better to choose one that’s only equipped with those security, style, performance, or navigation you need. As such,Opaque combines lightweight, quick navigation, with light resource consumption, and security by leaving no traces.
