Dmitriy DHS (ID: 0000006792ebc219) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 02/16/2022 Finally! An easy speed dial that is using broser bookmarks and not the own list of bookmarks that is needed to be maintained. And looks pretty decent though it'd be nice to be able to change the size of the dials. Thanks!

Cody Holt (ID: 000000d75d0b820c) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 05/24/2021 It's a great addon, but I wish it were a bit more like Opera GX speed dial in terms of functionality. Specially how you can drag and drop tiles onto each other to either create a new folder or add a tile into a folder. Another feature I'd like from GX is a popup folder rather than loading the whole page into a folder when clicked on. If these were added I think it'd be a lot easier to use.
