Could be Tree Style Tabs ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tree-style-ta... ) or Tab Tree ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tab-tree/ ).
Yes, I'm using Tree Style Tabs.

Ahh, the paradox of being the market leader. Remember when Chrome tried to innovate with how we use bookmarks? [1] People cry out for innovation, but then freak out when said innovation happens.

The bookmark manager is not a great example, in my opinion. There was massive outcry because there were major features missing and it was a major step back from a usability perspective. They could have improved on it without forcing people to use another Google service too.
Didn't even noticed that change since using zeerka.com.
At work I have to test the same bunch of web sites in a variety of browsers, so using each browser's bookmark manager would be really painful.

Worked fine for me, likely something external to the browser is the cause.
They changed the download link to https. The warning and block is from Opera itself. See http://help.opera.com/opera/Windows/1781/en/private.html
"If you are browsing on an encrypted connection (https://), Opera checks to ensure that all parts of the site are encrypted. If Opera detects that any live elements of the page, for example scripts, plugins, or frames, are being served by an open connection (http://), it will block the insecure content. This means parts of the page may not display properly. Opera advises against allowing insecure content to load into an encrypted connection. The best way to protect your sensitive information is to interact only with secure content. When Opera detects insecure content and blocks it, a warning will appear in the right side of the combined address and search bar. If you do not care about the security of your connection with the site, you can click the warning to show an Unblock button. This button will allow the blocked content to be loaded onto the page, and the security badge will change to show an open padlock, reminding you that you've allowed insecure content to display on an encrypted connection."

Simply shows that their teams are not in sync with security policies or they don't have one.
Probably just an oversight or a typo. They've now changed the link to https.

Isn't that your local antivirus? I know that's how that works in chrome.
That's from Opera. See http://help.opera.com/opera/Windows/1781/en/private.html

Re: Opera Neon concept browser
#218This made me realize how little innovation there is in the browser space today. Opera used to innovate extensively before the sale, and it looks like at least they're trying to keep doing it. I'm also hopeful for Vivaldi. Chrome and Firefox are completely stagnant, unfortunately.

Don't confuse innovation with what is nowadays called "streamlining".
