Yandex is a Chromium-based browser, with added functionality from Opera. Many of its features directly come from Google Chrome. There are some crucial differences, though.
Make Start.me your homepage
Yandex Browser doesn't support setting an external website as a start page or as a new tab page. You can, however, install an extension from the Opera webstore to create a home-icon in your browser that links to https://start.me.
This way you can get to Start.me with a single click.
Instructions
Install the extension.
Set https://start.me as start page.
You can also put a bookmark on the bookmarks bar for easy access.
Import bookmarks
Yandex does not permit the installation of our Chrome extension, so you can't use the extension to import your bookmarks. If you want to import bookmarks, you must do this manually. You only do this once.
When you've stored your bookmarks on your Start.me page, you can access them from any browser.
Make sure you've exported your bookmarks in HTML format.
Click the Add content button.
In the Add content pane, scroll down, and locate the button 'Import bookmarks.'
Click the Import bookmarks button and browse to the HTML file with your bookmarks.
Click Import.
Once the importing has finished, you will see a prompt 'Your import has been completed.'
Click 'Close' to continue.
Get bookmarklet
The bookmarklet allows you to bookmark pages with one single click. It works best from your bookmarks bar.
