What is your homepage on your browser?

Some of you above are using the term 'bookmarks' to refer to an array of larger icons on your home screen. I suspect the browser refers to these as 'Speed Dials', not bookmarks. I tried using Speed Dials in a couple browsers but found the tech used is unique to each browser, Speed Dials can not be transferred to another browser. I just use the browsers thin 'bookmark toolbar' now, which can be exported/imported to other browsers.

Indeed, I use Speed Dials. I have no use for Bookmarks. I only use one browser - Firefox.

The Speed Dial add-on I use is no longer supported, but with a little editing of CFG files I was able to ensure it continues working. I don't see a need to change it now. It does offer the ability to save the Speed Dials to the net though, I think those would import into another browser, assuming I was using the same Speed Dial add-on.
 

Mine is Yahoo, personalized for me. There are no ads on it. Some bookmarks and the newsfeeds that I chose.
I open a new tab and the Google search page is there. It's the only one I use for searching.

Thanks for this info.

I couldn't figure out how to add ones I wanted because I was searching for adding bookmarks. All I could do was pin my favorites and move them around in the list on the tab. It chose which ones to show based on an algorithm of recent and most used.

Searching for speed dials brings up an extension on Firefox that allows me to manage the speed dials on the browser tab.
 
Chrome shows the Bing search page and Brave sometimes shows a financial themed picture but today it has a promo photo for the game Parallel. Both browsers show icons for my most frequently used websites.
 
I have 5 tabs that open when I open my browser. This forum is one of them :)
