Opera Install Issue

[KingofGotham1]

Hello, I installed Opera browser on my M1 Mac Mini, forgot about it and then noticed it again one day. However when I went to search for it in the "applications" folder I didn't see it (only showing up in my Dock) so I right clicked on it, went to options and selected "show in finder" and it took me to..."applications folder" but with only Opera in it. What am I missing?

The Opera app was installed under your user folders, ~/Applications. It’s an alternative location for apps where admin permission is not required to accomplish the install.

I just find it odd since I have never seen another application installed there. Thank you for the response!
