I remember opera features were wild. At some point they cached websites on their servers to load them faster, they had a builtin torrent client, they automatically created mobile versions of pages, probably more I'm not remembering

There was also a built in webserver, email client, irc client. I was quite sad when they sold out and became yet another chrome clone. Vivadli carries on the spirit, but i've since switched to firefox purely because i dont want the web to be dominated by chromium.
