I know Opera is Chromium based but according to statcounter Opera accounts for nearly the same % (actually slightly higher) overall desktop browser market share (Opera 4.48% : Firefox 5.96%)
Yet support for Opera but not Firefox ๐ฟ
Its because they did not had to do anything for supporting Opera. They made their app work with Chromium based browsers and Opera is happened to be one. Firefox on the other hand requires additional development to be supported.
