Opera’s air browser is here to make your experience on the Internet less stressful
It’s all and it’s all It’s easy to waste time on the Internet. Scroll to social media, the fall of rabbits led by algorithm, YouTube and a click on bad news after bad news. We know that too much time on screen is bad for us but recognizing the problem and Doing something about it are two different things.
The browser manufacturer’s opera has an idea of ​​growing a healthier relationship with the network and our computers, and this is a new browser called Water operaS Now available for Windows and MacOS, its reason is to “actively improve your well -being” by promoting vacations, exercises and meditations.
Opera ethos
As for the improvement of your user experience, the Opera Air begins with the main building blocks of the browser interface: this is all round angles and mastnerable glass effects, and the opera itself describes it as a “minimalist Scandinavian design”. (Opera is headquartered in Oslo, Norway.) Everything is designed to be as relieving as possible as possible -although the amount of relaxation you will feel is still to some extent depends on the sites you decide to browse.
“The net is beautiful, but it can be chaotic and captivating,” says Mohammed Salah, senior director of the Opera product. “We have decided to look at science-backed ways to help our users navigate in a way that makes them feel and function better.”
To this end, you have the choice of background sounds and the choice of exercises to work with, both easily accessible from the main browsing screen. You can also set reminders to rest at regular intervals and probably the opera will add more over time – the current version of the browser is indicated by “early access”.
To investigate the need for a soothing tool like Opera Air, the company conducted a survey of 7,000 people in seven countries. He found that 58 percent of the respondents “sometimes feel overworked or stressed while surfing the web” while 83 percent of the respondents said they would like “the web browser to make them feel better while they go through their day.”
