Opera Sync doesn't work.
Or in a way, it does, but not in the way that I feel most people use it for: Bookmarks.My Opera manages to sync the workspaces, but not my Bookmarks.
And it's never synced Open Tabs in all the years I've used it, and yes, before some idiot says "oh well you should make sure that was toggled on", it's been on via "Sync Everything" for more than 3 years.
It's also never synced Settings, always have to manually change them every time I use a new device, or reinstall Opera due to some issue with my computer.When I go to Opera Sync (The Opera page, not in Settings), it says I have 12 Open Tabs (Utterly false, I have 50+), and 2322 Bookmarks (Possibly accurate, I don't care enough to count them), but that's for this account.
My other account has "5048 Bookmarks", which is not only absurd (I've never gotten that high), but also absolutely inaccurate. that account has less than 50 Bookmarks, and if it's supposed to have 5K+... then where the hell are they, cause I certainly don't see them.Sometimes it manages to sync Bookmarks cross-device (Computer to Computer, Mobile isn't worth the effort), but that's few and far between, even when both devices are turned on, both browsers are open, and both devices have Sync enabled with the exact same Settings.
I'm at the point where I might just go back to Firefox. The only reason I continue to use Opera, is because of the utility offered by Workspaces.
I know this sounds like a rant (And to be fair, it is), but it's gotten to the point where I'm not just being inconvenienced. I'm being annoyed and inconvenienced.
I know it takes time to sync things. But I think 30+ minutes is a long time, especially if it's not even Syncing everything (Both literally and figuratively, no idea what's going on with those Sync statistics).Edit: Maybe I just need to clear my Sync data? Maybe that would fix this issue? I don't know, and unless a dev or something confirms that should fix it, then I'm simply not going to further inconvenience myself by doing so.

@lkvm Same issue about not syncing. I cleared my sync data, still not working. It used to work fine for bookmarks until very recently. Hope the issue gets fixed, since I use a lot of shared bookmarks between PC, tablet and phone.

Apparently sync either doesn't work at all, only partially works, or works just fine.
Just had my bookmarks "sync" from my PC to my laptop, and it didn't even sync the bookmarks properly, as only a few of the new ones got popped over to the other device, while still failing to sync the older bookmarks.
How am I supposed to delete all those bookmarks in Trash if I can't even access them?
