      After deleting some Speed Dials from my home page I noticed that there is suddenly two instances of "Tab: Speed Dial" in Operas Developer Task Manager. Before there was only one instance. Is this normal?

      Opera Version: 81.0.4196.37

        I have that too and think it's normal. As for why, I would guess it has something to do with Opera's shared start page feature where it uses the same instance of the Start Page page for all start page tabs (to save resources and make display of the page faster). So, when you have the start page open, the task manager is showing the shared start page tab and the regular tab that has the shared start page loaded in it. My guess at least.

        There used to be a flag to disable the shared start page where you could then see the difference. But, it's no longer there.

            @burnout426 Thanks for answer! I'm not sure if I understand how this start page works but good to know it's probably normal to have two instances.
