    Hello jmichaels29 !

    Some information about your hardware may be helpful. Is there a problem with Firefox , Chrome, Opera, and other mainstream browsers ?

    Opera does seem to have some problems playing some videos(facebook, news sites). Lynx is probably the lightest, but is text only. Some others are lighter(midori, but do miss the features of main browsers. Can usually lighten browsers with ad blockers. Can see this link for others, but depends on what you can live with or without. https://www.linux.com/training-tutor...rowsers-linux/

    The problem is not with Opera per se, but that some sites detect the built-in adblocker and blocks the video in retaliation. You can disable the adblocker for individual sites.
