Morning Design Team,
I've had a quick look at the usage stats from Miraheze for the last 21 days and I'm seeing around 5.5% of traffic using Opera.
Opera isn't a well used but still fairly popular browser and I'm not sure I believe it's got less 0.1% of traffic for Wikimedia. Where has this data come from?
I have no objection to dropping IE but I do note that it's still about 0.5% for us today. I haven't had time to look at Edge legacy data.
I very strongly object to dropping Opera. Opera's market share is a lot more than 0.1% on other stats services, there must be something wrong with the detection code. Opera is very popular in Africa and Eastern Europe, and has a lot of users with the Opera GX gaming browser as well. There are also multiple Opera versions as well on a large range of mobile devices. Opera Mini should still be supported as it is useful in areas of the world where data is expensive or slow. I hope you do some more studies and consider keeping Opera support.
