      Return the speed dial

      What the heck, did that many people ask to have this removed. Was there too little space on that massive address bar. Someone wake up and say, "here is a feature that we can just remove..." What was the thought process?

          Are you talking about the start page button that's missing on the left side of the address bar in Opera One builds?

            @burnout426 It looked like the windows logo between the refresh and address field. Sorry, tried to upload a picture, i failed...as I do in life 🙂

                  @burnout426 In the side menu, it is listed as "speed dial."

                    Hi, this button on side menu is problematic when someone not use this menu and this button open new window not back to speed dial in current window.

                    It would be nice if home button was return next to adress bar

                      @adamuspl The one on the side seems to open in the current window for me. It would be nice if one could rearrange the order or if you have many hidden the visible ones would join up so that the button I want is not at the very bottom of the screen.

                        But that one opens a new tab instead of browsing to the speed dial page using the current tab. I prefer to reuse the current tab, because otherwise the number of tabs increases and increases...

                          @rgranger Hi, for me this button open new tab. I no need new tabs when finish browsing the website (and need close previous tabs manualy). And i no need sidebar so then it is close i don't have acces to this button. I preffer (and, i think, not only me) home button like before.
                          Regards

                            Bring back the Home Button (Speed Dial).
                            What's the point of removing it? It started with Opera GX, now with the main Opera when it switched to Opera One build.
                            All of the other mainstream browsers support the option to enable home button.

                              This new version of Opera is atrocious... No Home/Start button?!?! Seriously? This should be filed under "Un-Development"...

                                @leocg No, it is now on left side below and different behavior, previous- you are on same page, want to go to speed dial page behaving like a homepage, just one click. Now if you click ot that new not user friendly replaced speed dial button, it just open new page and close the one, you wanted to leave- two cliks on not practical placed speed dial button below on side bar

                                    It’s not solution but extension from Google store „home button at top right” helps a little.

                                      No better than any other browser without dial button.

                                        Free the speed dial! They really just dragged me into the forums for this...

                                          Bring back the speed dial button (please). It was super practical. If some users don't want it, some others do. So, the compromise solution is to activate or deactivate it through the settings. And to be placed in the same place where it was, (or to be able to place it where the user want it). Thank you in advance for your consideration.

                                            Can we please have the speed dial button on the address bar, as it is a pain to have to use the back button to get back to it? thank you
