I too use Opera Mobile for its text reflow feature. A feature sorely lacking in (AFAIK) every single other mobile browser.

Firefox has text reflow on zoom.
But it isn't even comparable. I've tried switching to Firefox, but the text reflow sucks badly.
every browser HAD text reflow at least around 2010~2012.

for whatever reason, they all removed it. Android stock had text reflow (and inverted color night reading). then on 2.3.3, gone. now they don't even have a stock browser. they ship with chrome, installed as a system app.

firefox started with awesome text reflow. then i think on fenec v16 they screwed up everything when moving to the Reader feature just to clone safari, safari for f* sake...

It is unmaintained and broken.
