The Opera Link service hasn't been stopped yet, it's still working fine for me, but the clock is ticking!

so why u are lying?

First of all, please read the forum rules before posting.

Second, no one is lying. Just because something doesn't work for you, doesn't mean that it's not working for everyone else. And vice-versa.

Alright, I downloaded latest Opera browser on my windows PC and logged into my Opera Link account.
It redirected to https://sync.opera.com/web/ but the page seems to be broken.
All I see it white page and bunch of links.
Can't perform any action on the page. Can anyone look into it?

Try removing the # and reload the page. Also disable Turbo and all extensions.

So, no answer at all ? There is absolutely nothing to do to save/export our notes ?

To be honest, this doesn't help building our trust toward the new service Sync...

Oh and BTW, Link is already down ?! We are not even in december !!!

The # comes when we click on any link on the webpage. The page should load successfully with or without it.

@gh0st7: Do you have JavaScript enabled? It's required to browse this page.

@cqoicebordel: where is it you don't get Link to work?

• The planned shut down date is December 14
• When Link is closed, nothing will be removed from your browsers - your data (including notes) will remain in your browser, but it will not sync between your devices, and you cannot access your data on https://link.opera.com

You should have them in your computer, right? Also it shouldn't be that hard to go to Link notes page and just save it.

It is a real pity: The new sync Service does not carry over any of the notes I have kept in my Bookmarks pages.
Also the separate Notes where really useful, even so not synced to any phones (I organized my Wedding with it and my wife was able to see all I have arranged and vice versa...) and stacking the tabs is still not supported on the new browser which I made extensive use off in Opera....

For people with the same problem as me (at least for the notes in the bookmarks section):
Export your Bookmarks from the Browser as HTML, at least this way you can create a link to this html page in the new browser, open it and you will still be able to search the page for the notes as they are actually exported when you export the Bookmarks as html.
Works, but it will be a pain to keep updated in the future...
So I wonder how many years it will take before we can see stacked browsing tabs (another 2?) or Notes to the bookmarks or even as separate...(probably never, most people now a days seem to rely on automatic sorting, just not enough people using old style "logic" and "organizational" talent to sort or tag their stuff...
Works maybe for social stuff, but for technical bookmarks in various industry areas tagging and own notes are really essential...

On https://link.opera.com/ : "Access to the Opera Link data has been denied (token ATpfcch9fVXHYQx3jMf0aS5on5bet5JT)"

There is more data on the server than in my browser. So no, everything won't be in my browser when Link die.

Sure. It's in a beautiful format to be reused, imported in a new browser/extension...

Indeed, it allowed me to access it again. Thanks for that.

Well, you still have time to "fix" the problem.
