The best extensions for Opera focused on productivity
Opera is an excellent browser that receives much less love than it deserves. We’ve talked about it before, it’s one of the best alternatives available, especially if you use Chrome and want to change the air.
This is partly because in Opera you can install any Chrome extension and you do not have to do much to achieve it. However, this browser has its own library of extensions created especially for him, and today we will recommend 11 of the best focused on productivity.
Instant Translate
With Instant Translate you have an easy and fast way to translate any selected text in the browser immediately and without having to leave the current page.

I do not care about cookies
If you are fed up with the cookie warnings that all websites must show thanks to European laws, with the extension I do not care about cookies you forget them forever. No more wasting time accepting pop-up messages that appear every time you empty browsing data or use a private tab.
