Sync same Speed Dial on every device

I too would like the option of syncing a single SD across multiple devices. However in another thread, gustavwiz suggested a more flexible option:
"That's because many want to separate their home and work speed dials. At the same time, many also want to have the same speed dial at some places. For example work speed dial on work computer, and home speed dial on home laptop and home desktop. That's why we want Opera to let the user be able to choose."
So a toggle/checkbox etc that lets a user switch between 'same SD on all devices' and 'unique SD on all devices' would not be sufficient for some.
I would love to see gustavwiz's suggestion implemented.

The problem with synchronization is that it is all-or-nothing. It would be nice if one could choose what to synchronize and what not to. If it could be optionally done one way and not both ways that would be nice as well.

Sorry, the whole comment about sync is all of nothing is for me an excuse. This is simple, allow determination of what is synced in every profile settings OneDrive does it, GDrive does it, Google Chrome does it. Come on Opera.

Based off the lack of response the "simple" addition of this feature is likely more difficult than we are imagining. Anyone have an idea as to why it's more complicated than we're imagining?

Yes, I agree, this feature is lacking in Opera and needs to be addressed. Cheers

This feature would be really useful because I would like some of my devices to share the same Speed Dials but some have their own ones. Unfortunately right now I have like a million separate Speed Dials )

I agree that this could be an option for synchronization.
But I strongly disagree this being a default behavior, i.e. not having speed dials folders as it is now. The way it is now is the exact behavior as I would expect and a top implemented feature. I don't want the same speed dials on my work and home PC, and actually need third set for my phone.
I wanted to try the new Firefox Quantum and had a terrible time making it work like this with the Top Sites similar to Opera Speed Dial feature.

I use different profiles for
- Home
- Study
- Work
- ...
Then, to share the same SD it's much more comfortable.
But as said, that would be a decision to leave to the user.

So if you want to study at home, or do a little work, or have a look at the link you need at work but set it at home you need to switch profile every time?

Definitely.

Yes, I do.
At home I have each profile to use for those purposes.In case I've found a new link on the home profile, I just copy/paste it to the needed profile or send it to the email or share it with dropbox.
I've found that more convenient to keep all clean and organized.
