@sea0nf1re As far as I know, it's not possible to disable suggestions from bookmarks.

@leonhardttobias Agreed. I think it says it all that there was no solution or mention of it being looked at, no further responses, then in the thread there's an almost comical "about a year later" when andufo commented today. Clearly this will not be resolved.
When I tried looking into this elsewhere on the web last year I read several things regarding privacy issues with Opera so I'm glad I switched. I'd forgotten how annoying having your bookmarks getting pulled up as suggestions was! Firefox works fine for me and I imported my bookmarks there with no issue.

wait, did you just block the website that I, and the OP, currently have the same issue with the suggestion bar....?
And from what I have learned, a lot of other browsers have an option for you to turn off autocomplete URLs from bookmarks.
For me, i have just only used Opera GX for like 3 months, i do really like it, but this issue, yes, its not just me, is really pissing me off. -

I don't know if anyone said this yet, but the possibility to either remove suggestions from history and bookmarks, either completely, or for specific sites, should be added due to the fact that - surprise surprise - people do not want their pornhub history and bookmarks popping up when browsing in fron of other people, or when other people borrow their browser. Neither on a computer or not.
I never see anyone stating this outright even though it's likely the main motivation to have the functionality to remove it overall.. and most of us actually do browse porn.
I believe the creators of browsers are sadists, willingly not helping us out with this out of sheer pleasure.
