" Well, I only have about 200 bookmarks, perhaps fewer, organized in about 20-25 folders. I hope that with such numbers I'm not quirky, geeky user... but still bokkmark tree and side panel is way more useful to me. I suppose... not only to me."
I'm much like you. Having a few hundred bookmarks, I actually thought I was a power user, I see that's not the case now.
I really miss the bookmarks from 12.16. It was really powerful. I decided to give 20 a chance, and after reading the forums, I went to the extensions and downloaded "simple bookmarks"
https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/simple-bookmarks/?display=en
It's really quite good, in fact, I have never tried the "bookmarkes bar" because of it. Now guys, don't yell at me, I know it's not as good, but it makes using Opera 20 enjoyable for me. Just my 2 cents

hi, I have a question for you. If in future simple bookmarks don't work with new opera release? Or it will become a payment?
Opera must have a built-in bookmarks because users don't have got fear of lost your bookmarks.

hi, I want to excuse for my English.
Do you think to create a petition for reintroduce all great features in opera 12.16 in the new opera? I'm very sad for the new opera isn't usable like old version.
The usability is goes down!
I don't accept this wrong way.
In old opera I've got over 1000 bookmarks and over 5000 notes!
In this thread don't mention an extensions, they aren't usable as built-in.
An extension could close in future or could become a payment!
I can open a petition in Italy , but in English I need of your help.
Old opera 12.16 is going to become unusable on a lots of website.
It's a ugly gift that Opera made at all old users.
I can't use another browser because anything is good as Opera 12.16.
Thanks for you that read this message in horribly English.
Then, we'll make a petition?

Yes! if they don't import all great features of opera 12.16, they have to give us the presto engine!

sorry for my English.
I use opera 12.16 for this great fearures:

• mouse gesture
• bookmarks in side panel with folder(I have over 1000 bookmarks! )
• notes in side panel (I have over 5000 notes)
• web panel in side panel!
  and more!
  I don't understand why they have demolished all great features opera.
  Opera 12.16 is only browser that I could to pay!
  God save Opera12!

We give us opera 12.16 features!
This message is for the opera's CEO. If you don't give us the old feature, you donate us the source code of opera 12.16 for open sourc community.
The actual version of opera is too unusable.
Who do help me with a petition on charge.org?

I wrote this message in suggest box, but was sent in this forum!

Sorry for my english.
Why opera developers don't restore all good things of opera 12.16 as notes and bookmarks in sidepanel?
I have more 5000 notes, and now i can't use it! You have made an ugly present for all old users. I use opera from version 8!

@ice007

Sorry for my english.
The programmers can't create a float panel and position it on the right? It's so ridicolous destroy all good features of opera! 12.16.
Integrated notes were a good thing! You see a interesting text, select it, right click and save! the ceo of opera is going crazy?
