      I'd like to request some quality of life features that Firefox has that Opera is currently missing but hopefully would be simple enough to include in the feature set.

      • Bookmarks have tags in addition to a title for easier searching
        • The main reason I enjoyed this feature in Firefox was making searching more flexible and easier. Right now in Opera, searching in Bookmarks is limited to the URL and the title, and I don't like stuffing random words into the title.
        • To make this even more impressive, surpass Firefox by also adding an alias field for as many title aliases as the user wants!
      • The browser back button and the browser forward button have a right click dropdown menu of the history for that tab.
        • Having the ability to use a context menu on the buttons in the chrome is really nice.
      • CTRL+F searching highlights all matching words.
        • Easier for visual grokking

      The features above are small things that make life lovely, and I miss them after transitioning from Firefox to Opera. Please steal them and implement them in Opera 😊

        @georgepantazes Except for the bookmarks one, there are already those features in Opera.
