Opera back in 2000s.

Compressing webpages, built in mail, built in BitTorrent client, tab stacking, "fit to width" which would remove horizontal scrollbars, page tiling, mouse gestures, rocker gestures, I think it even had a calendar.

It's a shame the direction Opera took after Jon left, but thankfully he started Vivaldi which feels like the spiritual successor.

Used to be the first thing we installed on phones and PCs. Opera was blazing fast on basic phones as far back as 2008sh.
