Speed dial change was the reason I registered on this forum. May be that was Opera's secret plan to increase the community activity?
Same for me.

I've learned a lot while getting annoyed at the sidebar change in the latest update. The best thing I learned was how to revert to version 58 which I liked! Simple and it works perfectly - https://forums.opera.com/topic/31873/solved-how-to-revert-to-opera-58/4

+1 that miss the side bar only in Speed Dial. On my desktop with a big screen the side bar do not bother me, but when I use my small laptop, it's very annoying.

Second this.. sooo annoying.
I can't understand why would you ever REMOVE functionality as simple and useful as this. What are you gonna remove next? Speed dial? -

Agreed! I miss the ability to access settings, extensions, downloads, etc from the sidebar in speed dial!

@leocg said in Side panel.:
Just unpin/hide it.
This reply is so low effort and so invalid, I am surprised it's coming from a moderator.
A function that was in by default, automated and served a legitimate purpose has been removed, and you are suggesting we recreate it's function manually, that's the text book definition of regression, downgrading.
If that's the case, why not just switch to Vivaldi altogether, if I have to manually fiddle w/ the side bar, I can do that and much more in Vivaldi.
All the missing features can also be implemented as addons/extensions, and at which point why use Opera?I have been using this browser for over a decade, I have always recommended it to everyone around me.
The main reason I have used it was it's customizability, ease-of-life / quality-of-life features and it's willingness to progress and innovate. It's a shame that the very user base that popularized it are being ignored.I wonder how many thousands of people are really annoyed at this change but won't say a thing about it and eventually just switch...
I have been test running Vivaldi for a while (since the sidebar change), I have few reasons to switch, but this sidebar thing is my tipping point, along w/ the attitude I am seeing by staff.

@Roverandom Same thing. But also - when you open a bookmarks in "incognito mode" they opens in normal mode. Who give them that "bright" ideas - I hate him!

I don`t wanna see side panel on any sites except start page. Can you add some feature for that?

Why I cannot see sidebar on the speed dial when I turn it off? It works very well before, I could really quickly hide notifications from my chats by turning it off during calls, but now the options to turn it off and turn it on is so hidden that it takes a while to do that... so many click, fix it please.

In earlier versions, when you turned off the sidebar, the start page would show its own sidebar. Its sidebar was implemented in code in the start page itself. Opera removed that start page sidebar code and hasn't said why. They also haven't said whether they're bringing it back or not. But, I hope they do.

@burnout426 It seems like people are talking about it already, so maybe we don't need two threads for the same thing. Thanks!
