      For example, when I change from Google Search to the New York Times, I still see the Google icon. In a different tab, when I leave the Paris Review for Barron's, I still see the Paris Review favicon.

      I restarted Opera, then my entire computer. Both seemed to do the trick for a while, but then the problem reappeared.

      I'm running:

      Opera Version: 65.0.3467.42
      macOS Mojave 10.14.5

      Does anybody know how to fix this?

        Same version of Opera, Mojave 10.14.6, no problem here.

          @xiamenese Thank you, Mark.

          I will chalk this one up to technology gremlins, as the problem went away on its own a day later, despite nothing changing in my environment.

          I kept an eye on it for another day, just in case it reappeared. So far it has not.

            After I upgraded to Opera 65.0.3467.48, the issue returned.

            I will see if it goes away again after several restarts.

              The issue remains.

              I have since upgraded my macOS to 10.14.6. I am still running Opera 65.0.3467.62.

              As I type this in one Opera tab, the adjacent one shows the SeekingAlpha favicon appearing for The New York Times.
