      Why is using the Opera browser so non-intuitive? I mean I bookmark a page for later reference and then I have to search bookmarks to find it again in the future. Trying to find it visually is a nightmare after a few dozen links have been bookmarked. I mean in previous times, with other browsers, there was an option to create a folder with a title, and to then put relevant links in the folder. This was very simple. Now, I'm forever guessing as to how to use the browser. I mean I've been using the browser for years and it still isn't clear how to manage this problem. Then there is the Speedial thing, where links get dumped after being bookmarked but at other times the bookmarked links get dumped into bookmarks. So my Opera browser is just a huge mess and I have no clue how to fix this. I fail to understand how something so simple like developing a browser for intuitive functionality is such a problem for devellopers. When one designs a car, one doesn't change the basic positional principle of the steering wheel for example by putting the steering wheel on the roof of the car and claiming this is great because it leaves more room for my legs. The point is there's a fundamental way to design something and not. Jeez, you had one job!

        Hi, how do I create a folder to place bookmarks in with Opera? There's no option for creating folders in Opera.

          @lionelbalemessi In the bookmarks manager page (opera://bookmarks), I can right click and create a new folder.

          In the bookmarks panel, you can right click in one of the "categories" and create a new folder too.

            @leocg Even in the palette when you click the heart icon to add a bookmark, you can right-click on a folder and choose New folder. Likewise, if you right-click on the Bookmarks bar or any of its dropdowns you'll find Add folder...
