This problem is back this week on the latest Opera Stable; I don't see any settings wheel at the top of the newsfeeds, either.
The Vivaldi browser is promising that they will ensure ad-blocking can continue after this upcoming phasing out of the webRequest API by Google/Chromium. Hopefully, Opera can do the same.
@skyrim2011 I agree with you! 
The moderator assumed you meant news sources in the forum because you posted in the “ForumFeedback” category.
As for news sources, you don’t have to view the Opera-default ones at all. You can even add any personal news sources you desire.
I always look forward to updates! It's like a new present to me!
@tobysmith568 Perhaps, some people like to change their Setup fairly frequently ... I like to go from Light mode to Dark mode at night and then reverse that in the morning, for instance. 
@edwaar You could choose to open bookmarks from the Bookmarks Sidebar, instead. When clicking on bookmarks from the sidebar, bookmarks always open in a new tab/page.
The problem I reported yesterday and seemed resolved about 4 hours later is unfortunately back. Others are having this problem I know, too. Any comments from Opera on this would be appreciated.
Some 4 hours later ... it seems that Opera has rectified this issue.
Personal news feeds and Top 50 news feeds are having troubles showing images on many entries as of today.
The same issue is also affecting "News" tiles on the Speed Dial page.
