First things first, thank you for creating Opera Air. Please, never stop maintaining this browser.

Opera Air speed dial allows to add only limited number of websites.
Consequently, it's essential to use bookmarks bar.
To reduce overwhelm (which I believe goes hand in hand with Opera Air idea), please introduce ability to show bookmarks only on the new tab page. Thank You.

Would be so kind and share more details about this idea: "to show bookmarks only on the new tab page." That's very interesting, but I'm not sure if fully understand.

@Mlipka Show bookmarks Only on the new tab page - major browsers support it.
Basically, what happens is the following:
Bookmarks toolbar is visible only on the new tab page.
Once bookmark is clicked from the bookmark toolbar, bookmark toolbar auto-hides. The result - distraction-less browsing.

Oh, ok, I get it.
It's actually the first time someone is asking about such feature. We're not working currently on this part of the browser, however this is an idea worth exploring in the future.

Hi @opera-browser-user,
I really appreciate your clear feedback — keeping things simple fits perfectly with the spirit of Opera Air, so having the option to show bookmarks only on the new tab page feels like a natural next step. Since the speed dial is limited, letting the bookmarks bar appear just when opening a fresh tab would reduce visual clutter while still giving quick access to your saved links, much like keeping everything neatly organized behind a clean, empty URL field!
With Best Regards Thanks!
