      Hello!

      I think the workspaces are a great idea, but I miss more flexibility. The main thing that bothers me is that you can't have a separate shortcuts (in bookmarks bar) for a different workspaces. Adding that would be huge.
      However, additional settings related to the workspaces can be added, such as private browsing, VPN, ad blocking,...

      I hope others find this useful as well.

      Thank you and keep developing this great browser,
      Peter

        @musycho-0 Workspaces are Opera's approach for tabs grouping, not profiles. So I don't think it makes sense to have different settings for each one.

          @leocg I have a workspace for work and a workspace for private things. When I have a break, I go to a private workspace where I have different tabs and need different bookmarks in bookmarks bar than when I'm working.
          I think it would be a nice upgrade

            @musycho-0 I see, but what you need are different profiles. Having different bookmarks for each tabs grouping doesn't make sense.

            Also, I guess it should be something very complicated to implement.

              @leocg I just want to add my voice to this. I use workspaces in Opera like I used profiles in Chrome and think it's more convenient to keep it all in one window. However, I also think an option should be given to link bookmarks to workspaces. This is a feature I used in Chrome. I've only been using Opera for a few days, but there have already been countless times when I've wanted to keep my bookmarks in workspaces separate from each other. Having different Opera profiles doesn't make sense because it requires you to sign out and sign back in with a different account, rather than switching in one click. This feature doesn't even have to be turned on. You could let each user decide whether to link bookmarks to workspaces. If I don't see a feature like this, I'll look at the documentation for Opera extensions and see if I can implement this myself. Just thought Opera was all about reducing the need for extensions by building everything in.

                How, if workspaces don't exist in Chrome?
