They won't 'allow' you? Very disappointed. There is a speed dial button my address bar..
I thought browsers were for anyone. You should at least have the option to not use. Well so much for choice....like the government.
I will just go back to my slow old chrome. Too bad. Except for that one thing.
Thanks

@loopy1945 It's, in fact, the start page button.

Hi
This may sound odd but I want to totally do away with speed dial. To me, it is horrid and invasive. I don't want it or need it but I've tried all the 'fixes' I see online and nothing works. In settings it says 'Hide Speed dial' but that doesn't work either. I have a new tab page that I love and want to use. I was able to use my own start page so is there a way to use my own new tab page? They should at least make speed dial an option and not mandatory. Thanks for any help. My browser is Version:93.0.4585.37

are you still having the issue?

but the start page is a speed dial is it not? a couple of websites I go to on Opera either don't work or it will not accept the url.. I copied the url from Chrome to Opera and still got an error trying to log in.
This is all info and things that just don't seem to work the way I think they should.

Thanks for your help. Much appreciated

@loopy1945 Nope, Speed Dial is part of the start page, it's a section of it

@burnout426 ...I was about to uninstall Opera because of not being able to remove some news sources, but the New Tab Start Page extension fixed it. I no longer use the speed dial page at all. (It's really dumb that I can't edit the news sources...would have been a deal breaker for me)

I don't have a problem with the start page. It's the new tab page that I have a problem with but it's ok. I've gone back to chrome. It works ok....just slow.

Privacy & Protection

This on works on Opera 100 and newer version: Go to "Settings" and then type "Hide Speed Dial" and switch it on.
