Because the beta has created a new interface for cards, in my opinion you should completely give up the "trash (bin)" on the cards, because it is useless. There is no Android Opera and everyone is happy.

No other browser I have used has a trash bin for bookmarks. Why does Opera need one? It is just a nuisance, because bookmarks that have been discarded will keep coming back if you do not empty it after deleting the bookmarks.

@leocg do you use this function ?
I don't, and I have to delete these bookmarks twice. Opera Android has no bookmark bin.

Useful here, despite the extra step.

In Chromium, when you delete a bookmark, it just gives you an option to undo. For Opera, just think of it as an undo list.

I've heard some users complain about that when it comes to default-provide speed dials at least. In that case, I don't remember if they were moved out of the trash and put back or just new copies were generated. Has this ever happened for a regular bookmark?

Anything coming out of the trash on its own, seems like a bug to me.

With that said though, in Chrome, I don't mind not having a trash view for bookmarks.

@campedor92 I usually don't use bookmarks but I think the recycle bin may be useful for many users.

Sure ... but it would be nice to have it clean itself periodically. Maybe on restart, and perhaps it should ask before getting rid of them. But we do see a number of issues related to Sync duplicating deleted bookmarks in their original location since the Trash hasn't been emptied. Something has to be done.

I wonder what it can be useful for?
This is my suggestion and I hope Opera is considering this.

@campedor92 Avoiding deletion of bookmarks by mistake?

@leocg If I delete a bookmark, I can search it again in the search engine or history and save it. Such science for the future to think what to do.

On my side, when merging Bookmarks.
I had to recover some folders deleted by extension's bug.

Windows offers the option to stop using the Windows Recycle Bin and to have items deleted immediately. Maybe such option would also be a good solution for Opera's handling of deleted bookmarks.

could also be the idea for a nice trash movie by "The Asylum", I think.

@leocg Because I don't want to delete bookmarks twice! I hate this recycle bin on bookmarks.
