While had sort of forgotten about opera web browser since it didn't seem
to work with screen readers a little while ago, realised that it
nowadays seems to have implemented a sort of embedded form of chrome,
which means that you can work perfectly well enough with it, along with
NVDA.
And, the other advantage is that while it has a similar form of
interface in terms of menu system to chrome, besides that, the interface
is a lot cleaner/simpler, and, for example, shift+tab from address bar
will in fact just take you to the web page contents.
Now, while haven't played around with all of it's settings as of yet, it
does also, at the very least, make use of all the standard/same
keystrokes as internet explorer, chrome, etc. - as in, keystrokes to
open links in new popup windows, navigating back/forward through
history, etc., and, it also seems to have a couple of nice, other
tweaks, etc., like what it refers to as it's speed-dial, which lets you
assign hotkeys to bring up specific websites, etc. etc.
Anyway, specifically what with it's cleaner form of an interface, but,
still being based on chrome, I am pretty sure this will be my default
browser - unless come across some specific problems...<smile>
And, lastly, FWIW, in the old sighted days, opera was also generally my
browser of choice, simply since it was, even back then, basically a
stripped down, cleaner interface, which is meant to be able to load
webpages quicker, use less system resources, etc. etc.
Stay well
