I was also using the latest stable version, but I'm back on Firefox now. I had trouble loggin in just to post this, and I can't read what I'm currently typing because this comment box is smaller than the text it contains and keeps resizing down if I expand it. Lovely.

Opera Software is a for-profit company that generated $216m in revenue in 2012, so how is it possible that their desktop browser receives so little attention? It's possibly the only modern browser with no (working) sync functionality.

This is the buggiest forum I've ever used. You have to login several times to get it to stick.

I downloaded the Opera beta just to try fix this major design flaw, based on the comment above. I found a setting in opera:flags relating to a navigation bar and webui, but all it did was remove the Speed Dial | Bookmarks | Discover buttons entirely.

Am I doing something wrong? I really want to start using Opera as my primary browser on desktop, but this bookmarks nonsense will otherwise prevent that.

I don't care about the Opera file system, but having bookmarks integrated properly into the Start Page would be awesome.
