I wonder if these new versions of Opera have any kind of customer input behind them. To me it looks like they're based on some sort of "we know better" kind of design...
Maybe it's time to start looking for a browser that could listen along with setting new trends.
The last Opera was a shock - I agree with the users saying that we needed Opera to be a browser we can also work with... It gives a clear picture of how much the design team care about their users.
If we would need a dumb browser like IE then why in the world we should install another dumbed-down Opera 20?!

I dont need any comments here from wiseguys to the extent "clean up your bookmarks" or "create new folders" .. I want ALL of my existing bookmarks back, they represent years of selecting them and keeping them in a nice an useful order.
So please, Opera: give us pour bookmarks back! The nice way of toggling them at the left side of the screen was one of the main reasons for me to use Opera !

You evidently do not so many it IS time you found a new browser... something more in keeping with your brilliant mind that can't accept dumbed-down browsers.

I like the new opera now that I have become accustomed to many of the changes. However, I do like my bookmarks and I do get tired of the likes of Leushino telling me to either get used to not having them, that I am ridiculous for wanting them or just f off to another browser. Arrogant is him.

He didn't say that. He said get used to it for now or use another browser. He, like most of us, assumes it will be improved. But those who insists they can't really live with this, would change to a browser that meets their needs.
The people he tells to F off are the demanding whiners.
I like the new Opera browser more than Presto due to site compatibility, fixed print issues and actual copy of text with all the formatting and links into other docs (like ODF). It was annoying having to jump to Firefox due to Presto deficiencies. However, I agree that Opera bookmarks leave a lot to be desired.

Thousands upon thousands of bookmarks is ridiculous
The only ridiculous guy here is you. You have no idea what these links are. If you ever worked with online manuals you would know that bookmarked links can rapidly grow. Even all people around me (colleges, family etc) use bookmarks heavily. But UI see, we are all soooooo 1990s...That very reasoning is one of the main reasons why Opera never gained much usage even during its heyday.
No the major reason is and was, that Opera had major issues every time it released a new major version. While the last major release of Opera 15 had the most devastating effects on its reputation.And here is my final question to all those silly guys which do like the new Opera: Why should anyone use a featureless copy of Chromium if anyone can use Chrome, Firefox or MS IE?
I want my old Opera features back (tab stacks, editable keyboard short cuts and B O O K M A R K S). Without these features I can use everything else than Opera. Period.

HOW TO IMPORT 9000 BOOKMARKS TO "SIMPLE BOOKMARK"? OR TO OPERA?
ADAMYou cannot. There is a workaround, but it will ruin your bookmark order. If you can live with that, have a look at my post here https://forums.opera.com/topic/1438/coming-back-to-opera/3
You will still be missing a proper bookmark manager among other things.

OK. SO, CAN I EXPORT MY BOOKMARKS IN FUTURE USING THE NEW OPERA?
WHY DOES THE NEW OPERA WORK LIKE THIS?
WHY OPERA DECIDED TO KILL OUR BOOKMARKS ?
IS IT A GOOGLE WHO WANTS TO OPERA DISSAPEAR? OR WHAT?
** Why this irrational policy? **
I've been using Opera for almost 18 years.
WHY DOESN'T OPERA HAVE THE RESPECT FOR OUR BOOKMARKS, FOR OUR HISTORY, AND FOR OUR LIKES?w h y ?
WHAT FOR IS THIS INNOVATION? IT IS ALWAYS THE FIRST STEP TO KILL THE SOFTWARE.
THEY SHOULD THINK ABOUT PEOPLE !!!
THANKS TO ALL WHO WANTED TO HELP.
THANKS. -

Then click on Set pages, and add the link or links that you want. You can have a homepage with one or several sites.

That is not true. Opera 20 permits tons of Bookmarks -- in the Speed Dial, the Bookmarks toolbar, a Bookmarks extension, like Chrookmarks, Tidy Bookmarks, simple bookmarks etc., and even in Stash.
You can import bookmarks from Opera 12 to Opera 20. Go to Menu, More Tools, and Bookmark importer.
So don't repeat things that are definitely misstatements, and that might confuse or demoralize others (about using Opera). It's not right, or fair. You know what Mark Twain said: "A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is still putting on its shoes”

I had never counted my bookmarks before, but I had an estimate of more or less how many I had. I finally decided to take the Geek Test and find out for certain how many bookmarks I have. My estimate was in the correct range. I turned out to have 282 bookmarks in only 12 Main Folders ... 4 Level One Sub Folders ... and 8 Level Two Sub Folders. The 12 Main Folders are hidden there at the right side as I have 10 bookmarks on the actual Bookmarks Bar.
Once a couple of you guys clued me into the secrets of the Boomarks Bar and how to maximize its use, I am now officially all set ... and without even having to utilize the Stash and the Speed Dial. I was surprised at how quickly I got used to the hang of the organization, flow and functionality of the Bookmarks Bar. I had been betting that I more likely wouldn't like it. I actually like it now.
Of course, I just happen to have had the good fortune that I was able to make do with just the Bookmarks Bar without skipping a beat. That's not to say that others who have more bookmarks and a different organizational layout scheme could also make do with just the Bookmarks Bar.
