This new placing of bookmarks on the end of the list makes it really difficult to navigate my bookmarks and impossible on mobile phone where the scrolling is slower.

Absolutely hate this, thought all my bookmarks were not saving at first, I save to other bookmarks then keep the ones being used there while moving others to different files. Changes are good for some users and attracting new users whilst keeping the browser up to date is understandable but giving the option to those who prefer the older system without having to swap back to the earlier version would be nice.

This is written on the official Opera site, under the Opera services section:
"Opera relies on our community of testers and long-time fans to help innovate the next generation of browsing and data-saving experiences. If you have any questions about your Opera account or the services that come with it, you may find these resources useful"
I believe that all of us here are, at least "long-time fans", so we should help to find a solution.
As someone said, we should report a bug, and maybe initiate something to happens.This is the official link for Opera bug report wizard:

@leocg in that case, if they ignore my report without any answer, i will know that it is time to move further on some other product that listens on customer demands and suggestions.
Maybe if more of you do something, like i did, there would be some reaction.What is the point of this forum if not to speak out loud and suggest some changes.

Opera should fix this.
The only reason I still open Opera it's for bookmark storage. And now they do this. This is insane. -

Opened a new file named - other - at the top of the bookmark files list to drag them to, still annoying but better than nothing

Using Opera GX was pretty fantastic as I just started using it around a month ago. The bookmark at the top was new for me and I really enjoyed it. Although sorting my date would be fantastic as well. Now neither are happening which is a bummer, and I can't find any extension that helps with that. I sure hope they resolve this.

@tarka said in bookmarks are added to the bottom of the list:
@lerinjo I agree, the more we do the better chance we have of something being done.
I followed the link you gave, clicked on suggestions for improvements and had my say.
Who knows, it cant do any harm right?
I received an automated reply as expected and then the following day another as follows:
Dear m#######n.co.uk,
Your suggestion is very interesting. We are going to study it thoroughly and decide if it's possible to implementing it.
We appreciate your opinion and hope that you will keep on sharing insightful ideas with us.Thank you for helping to improve Opera!
Best wishes, Opera QA TeamFor anyone else who finds this annoying I suggest contacting them, it may just make a difference.

There's a link to this thread in the bug that made this change. So, Opera knows of the protesting at least.

I use Opera many years and bookmarks were added at the bottom all the time (in the bookmarks bar folders at least), and it suits me well. It also works in Chrome/Edge/Vivaldi in this way so I don't understand why you think this is an incorrect behavior.
But I understand that it can be annoying for someone, so I suggest not to require to change the current behavior but I suggest to implement sorting option (asc/desc) by date added. So both points of view will be met without complains in future in this case.

@andrew84 The problem is not necessarily with where new bookmarks are placed, but at what position (top/bottom) a bookmark folder loads up. I always want to see fresh bookmarks first, that is the whole point. I do not care if the bookmark folder opens all the way on the bottom or all the way on the top. I just want to see fist the bookmarks from yesterday and not 5 years ago. I cannot find any general reason why someone would want to see bookmarks from years ago on top and then scroll for 10 seconds to get to the bottom of the page. I am genuinely interested in the why would people like it this opposite way as it is now implemented.
