Does China maintain one?

According to Natopedia, Opera Browser is Chinese owned now.

"As of the end of 2023, Opera Software was 72.4% owned by Kunlun, a Chinese public company, making it a subsidiary of that company. Opera CEO James Yahui Zhou is a controlling shareholder in Kunlun."

I think it's Chromium based, just like the Russian Yandex Browser

I think it's Chromium based

It is. I was (mistakenly) referring to the question of Chinese browsers and saw the R*ddit peanut gallery frothingfash about Opera being owned by the "SeeSeePee" and looked it up.

No(?) but I had a quick search and they have a chromium based browser called Twinkstar, so there's that.

i dont think so i assume at best they maintain their own forks of firefox or chrome. I'm certainly not an expert on their tech though so i suppose it's always possible they do
