This is driving me totally bonkers. My speed dial keeps getting additions from advertisers and I have to remove it every time. I have tried (what I thought) every possible setting but this still keeps happening. Is there a sure way to block unwanted additions to my speeddial?
(all I do is to remove them. I will never click on the advertiser and never have an interest to do so)
Please help.

@bramborovysalat-0 You should not be using free software that relies on advertiser support to fund work and development, then.

@bramborovysalat-0 I didn't mean to irk you, and I apologize for being so direct.
But those companies are the ones who pay Opera so they can keep working, and in exchange Opera guarantees them visibility in their service. At least I don't pay for using Opera. Your question to Opera is akin to asking a non-subscription TV station how to disable those annoying commercials that interrupt watching the show.

Opera Stable does not have a paid option. I would gladly pay a subscription fee for using the browser, considering the hours I use on it daily.
I pay for Windows, Outlook, YouTube, Adobe, Dropbox, Spotify and numerous sites — paying for a browser would be totally natural to me.

aah. that seems to be new and it worked! thank You so much. Well... it worked to find it and set it. We'll see if this really helps in the future.
Thanks again though! Cheers.
