Disappointed with Opera 44 for Android

Once again, Opera devs have messed up what used to be a great alternative to Firefox. Not only does it still not block ads on some sites, it now has a microscopic speed dial and there is no way to make it legible! I need my larger easy to read speed dial back; my eyes are bad as they are already, I don't need to make them worse with this crappy update!

Didn't noticed any difference.

Well, the speed dial is extremely small on my Galaxy Tab A on Tablet AND phone mode.

Cannot recommend to use a clean profile unless with a rooted device.

I'm not tech savvy or confident enough to root so I just decided to roll back to Opera 43 to get my regular speed dial back. Yet another browser I won't be updating for a while. I fear for the future of android browsers since so many of them suck these days.

Vivaldi will lunch its mobile version in a "near" future.

Add the thing that the scrolling up to summon tje top toolbar doesn't work most of the time.

@slytheringirl couldn't agree more, the speed dial has been made ridiculous now. Time to check out the alternatives again.

Yep, speed dial icons are too small. It's not that they've changed them, it's that these new builds can't be easily configured by the user. Why not allow the users to choose how the browser is set up?
