Is there any way to get bookmarks out of Opera for Android?

I'm trying to move from an older to newer android tablet. Older tablet has Opera for Android 64.2.3282.60128. I've tried Sync multiple times (endless loop of logging in, and some server errors) and Flow to my desktop pc multiple times (tablet eventually says connection refused by desktop, and some server errors). Windows desktop has Opera 78.0.4093.184. Tried installing Opera Mini on the same older tablet hoping settings would migrate from one version to the other... Ha!
I'm at the point where I'm ready to get out pencil and paper and write down the URLs for all my Speed Dial buttons and bookmarks. This is nuts,
As near as I can tell from browsing the forums, there are related problems that have existed for some time and that Opera is not addressing,
I've been using Opera since the only other real browser choices were Netscape Navigator or the computer security threat known as Internet Explorer, but it might be time to move on.

@breathingmeat Try again. When i recently sync android and pc, it took multiple effort before sync is worked.

@mekidon Thanks for the reply. Gave up on Sync all together (got tired of entering my username/password over and over). Tried Flow a half-dozen more times. It looks like it's working on both ends (I get the rotating arc on both desktop and tablet), but then I get the "Failed to Connect" message on the tablet, saying further that "connection declined on your other device" (desktop says "You made it!").
Searched the "Opera for Android" forum for "Failed to Connect" specifically. Looks like this problem is well known and has existed for a very long time. [sigh]

@breathingmeat Could always use the web version of Sync. Certainly easier than pencil and paper. Go to sync.opera.com and login, you can access your bookmarks there and add them one at a time to your new device.

It worked for me. Thanks @sgunhouse

@elizabethjdahl101 I tried sync.opera,com on both the older tablet running OfA and the desktop running the latest OfW, After logging in to Opera, both say "This page isn't working. http error 500". Guess I'm just lucky that way.
