Re: bookmarks are added to the bottom of the list

Yes, they should
I have about 10k bookmarks (really)

since :
87.0.4390.25 – 2022-05-17 -> DNA-99391 Add bookmarks at the bottom of a bookmarks bar folder

And the reason is...? Why???
Did somebody ask for that? I do not think so. If it ain't broke, don't fix it, man!
Please let us choose like "show newest first" or "show oldest first" or "show in alphabetical order".
The latter already exists, but you guys better do not touch it, otherwise there is no way back.

10 of millions? Ok, makes sense.
If you have hundreds of sites saved as bookmarks, well... Good luck on scrolling.
I do not get it. Why would you want to scroll all the way down to find your latest bookmark? Seriously...

@an188 I support. It became very inconvenient!
Recently, the Opera has become very annoying in the simplest moments

@an188 I also think it's a problem and new bookmarks should come on top instead of bottom! that's why I preferred opera instead of chrome (partially)

@nikita38454 Yes, I have hundreds of bookmarks and now I have to scroll to the bottom every time. Let there be an option for sorting and who wants to put the new ones above and the new ones below.

Thats what Opera became.

Nothing happens when "power users" talk about problems in a forum like here.
Why do the opera-team think we write about problems in a forum - because we have too much time?
It is getting ridiculous, and not just because of this moderator called leocg (bro, do you ever give some helpful replies in this forum?)

I am so annoyed of this browser. If i havent put that much time in opera to make it personal, i would be gone over a year ago.

@leonhardttobias There is no such thing as "power users" and if there was, Opera would take "non-power users" opinion into consideration too.

And yes, I have been giving helpful replies since the last century.

@leocg OK, so what now? Will you escalate the problem, till the solution, or just ignore the fact that we are pissed with this nonsense, and agree to lose many users of this, until now, perfect product?

@leocg then you should stop answering questions like you could change anything, know anything or even understand anything about that all. if you arent employed at opera or some kind of developer, why do you know the users asked for that? how can you see there arent power-users? how can you answer "for" opera?

would be great to know that even one person, who really take questions and problems seriously and can have an impact and use them, is reading this forum. because this forum is full with helpful input, but it seems that no one cares.

@leonhardttobias This is a forum, anyone can reply as long as it doesn't violate any rules.

Power users may have been something back on the beginning of the internet, but now, in 2022, there is no such thing.
Having hundreds of tabs opened or thousands of bookmarks don't turn anyone into power users.

I don't answer for Opera and such discussion, if bookmarks/speed dials should be added to the top or to the bottom is not exactly new

Is there any indication that this change will be reverted any time soon? Or maybe that an option will be added to sort bookmarks by "newly added"?

so far, apparently, only the rollback to 86.0.4363.59 and the killing of the update...

DNA-99391 Add bookmarks at the bottom of a bookmarks bar folder
@escruting It seems like a kind of bug then.
Maybe if people make a bug report for it, the developers will take this into account.

This change also contradicts another behaviour in bookmarks. When I drag and drop a bookmark into a folder, the bookmark is added to the top of the list.

So I have been using this behaviour to add the latest bookmarks to the top from the bottom of the folder, but hope they provide a fix soon.

This new placing of bookmarks on the end of the list makes it really difficult to navigate my bookmarks and impossible on mobile phone where the scrolling is slower.

Absolutely hate this, thought all my bookmarks were not saving at first, I save to other bookmarks then keep the ones being used there while moving others to different files. Changes are good for some users and attracting new users whilst keeping the browser up to date is understandable but giving the option to those who prefer the older system without having to swap back to the earlier version would be nice.
