From what I’ve seen it has a lil sidebar that lets you limit the resources available to it. Also a load of shortcuts to giveaways and storefronts. It’s also hideous, as all gamer stuff should be.
Honestly it gives me more “lowspec” vibes, than “gaming”, and there are far better ways to browse on low spec machines.
It downloads RAM for you, sells your browsing data to major gaming companies, helps you stay on top of your Twitch subs by disabling the ability to block web notifications.
Fun fact: it turns out that all those LEDs rely (in Windows at least) on a super-insecure driver written by a hobbyist who last updated it in the mid-2000s and has since disavowed it.
Also depends on which source we are discussing. Many YouTube channel owners do no not call themselves “influencers” and just focus on their domains and are very strict about sponserships (some don’t even accept sponsorships).
I imagine all of this data collection would greatly improve AI around browser use? That could be a feature with enough draw in the consumer space.
Rich CEOs will want all their employees using it and only web apps so that they can try to use that data to replace them. Their perplexity dashboard will have a list of all their employees, AI’s fine-tuned on that employee’s data.
Why would I use such a browser?
They’ve partnered with Motorla and probably Samsung to have it pre-installed. And a lot of people stick to the default one.
Because some influencer say you should. Works this way for too many people.
The amount of folks I see use Opera GX “gaming browser” because some influencer said so…
I’m still shocked at how many seemingly tech-literate people use and defend Brave because of influencers.
What the fuck is a gaming browser. Browsers show web pages.

You know, a gaming browser.
Dude, you forgot that it had built in led control. We all should know by know that gaming = leds

Or better yet, it adds LEDs to your web browsing experience (in-page and inside PWAs) and the colours scheme is synchronized with your computer’s LED.
An influencer’s review only makes me wary of a product and makes me question their motives.
But I guess others don’t see it that way, or they wouldn’t be doing it.

“Because it really gets you, y’know?”
Once they are bought out by the singular mega corporation you will have only few choices left.
Learn to love their products
Sit idle in the dust because without their product you cannot partake in society.
