With all due respect, I only use Opera on mobile devices that can't pull off anything better. I suppose I should check it out before I pass judgement, but they've repeatedly betrayed my expectations in the past and I doubt that this new browser will somehow change my attitue. Can someone post a run-down of features other than "it works fast"? What about plugin availability? What about HTML5 rankings?

No idea about plugins, all I use is AdBlock. Probably some more obscure plugins you can find in major browsers won't be available (obviously), but the cool/important stuff is all there.
Other features: it's completely customisable. It can look and act exactly the way you want it to. I use it as my mail client and RSS reader.
In the rare case of a site not functioning properly on Opera, it has more to do with the failure of that site's designers to adhere to web standards than anything else. However, I've yet to come across a site that doesn't work as it should in Opera 12, so there's that.
Just give it a spin when you get some time to tinker with all the settings and I'm sure you won't be using that awful amalgamation again (alliteration not intended).

Since i Updated Opera my YT uploads Crash randomly
That's weird. Sounds more like a problem with Flash than with Opera to be honest, especially considering Opera now runs plugins out-of-process.
