<![CDATA[Opera new tab]]>Hello. I was Mozilla user for many years, and wanted to give a try to Opera.
Since I'm used on opening new browser windows/tabs with shortcut (CTRL+N), in Opera it always opens Speed Dial window when I press ctrl+n. Is there a way to change it so it opens my home page instead?

While I'm at it, does anyone know is there a chance to adjust cleartype text of fonts in search bar and some other parts of browser? On screenshot below you can see the difference in letters between bookmarks tab/search bar text and this one that say (Overview, Discussion, Rules, Help).. it just looks kinda blurry.

Try the Custom New Tab extension.

https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/custom-new-tab-page/?display=en

Set the page you want for your new tab, and then Ctrl T or Ctrl N will take you there.

For when you open the browser, go to Settings (Alt P), the Browser tab, and On Startup, and set what you want if you don't want the speed dial there either.

Another possibility for an extension is Home Page in New Tab, https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/homepage-in-new-tab/?display=en

though I haven't tried it.

But in this newer version text is blurry. Here's screenshots for comparison.

I don't like address bar font in Opera. It feels blurry.

Then try launch Opera with command-line option --alt-high-dpi-setting=96 - this may affect rendering substantially, if your screen dpi is set to any other value (windows text scaling over 100%).

Yes. There are extensions that can do this. I don't use any so I can't make a recommendation but you can find them on the Opera Extension store.

does anyone know is there a chance to adjust cleartype text of fonts in search bar

No idea.

Is there a change to change this white skin to some darker skin?

Not at the moment, no.
