1. is there a dedicated Opera start page?

2. There seems to be a little red ! on a person icon top right corner

3. Can Speed Dial page be set for start/home page?

1. What do you mean?

2. It probably means an issue with Sync

3. Yes

@leocg Like Firefox has; the logo with a search box. Like: Opera.com/start. Or start.opera.com.

How do you make Speed Dial page be the home/startup page?

I added a little red icon for Home via extensions; seems counter intuitive to have it on the right side tho. Can it be moved to the left?

@leocg OK, got the speed dial all set. Sync works too. One more question; i have Opera on my iPhone; I don't see in there where it asks me to sign into an account.

@brinkeguthrie Opera Touch doesn't have sync, so there is nothing to login at.

@leocg yes but I am not using Touch on an iPhone; they don't offer it, do they?

@brinkeguthrie It's the only Opera browser for IOS. I guess it is called just Opera in Apple Store.

I'm a Vivaldi user, but I do have some questions about the Opera browser. I switched over from Chrome (and before that, Firefox) so I never really used Opera.

When Opera Neon came out, I gave it a try and I liked it for the most part, but my one qualm was that I didn't like having a smaller page display screen in order to fit stuff on the sides of the screen.

From what I've heard, the features of Neon were implemented into the newer versions of Opera. Is this correct? Also, what changed between this version and the older ones?

I also have some concerns about privacy and protecting personal information as I recall reading somewhere that Opera was sold to a Chinese company. Is that still the case?

@vinitbelam Yes, the browser making part of Opera was acquired by a Chinese group some years ago and wasn't sold again so far.

@vinitbelam In https://blogs.opera.com/desktop/ you can see the release posts for new builds of Opera, with their changelogs.

@vinitbelam Some features of Opera Neon may have been implemented in regular Opera, but not all of them.

I wonder, why can't I still choose startpage.com as my default search engine?

leocg Moderator Volunteer @HenryD last edited by

@henryd Only pre-defined search engines can se set as default one and there is no indication that it may be changing anytime soon.

Why isn't startpage.com a predefined engine yet then?
Isn't it about time that startpage.com is one of the selectable pre-defined apps
