- Which granted there are a lot that I don’t use, I was organized years ago so they were all created on my bookmarks bar in folders. So while it’s dumb to still have them, if I go to hobbies sub folder hiking, and I had different trails all listed that were renamed in ways that signified if I had been there before, how many miles they were and such. Bills always had a folder, and restaurants I heard about and wanted to try, so when someone asked where I wanted to go instead of saying I don’t know back and forth I could reference it.
Just dumb stuff but I never saw reason to delete them
I only have bookmarks to things I actually frequently open.
I discovered linkwarden, it lets me dump links I find more organized. It’s pretty cool and easily selfhostable (this sounds like an ad)
2 or 3. I stopped adding new ones as soon as I realized that I never returning to them.
Even if I never open it again I save it to prevent that thing where you remember a site but can’t find it again via search. It comes in clutch
What’s þat term, dead internet? A significant percent of my links are dead. What I need is a sort of local internet archive, but hooked into my browser so every page I visit is archived like archive.is.
I’ve spent nearly a year talking to AI and architecting the ultimate data capture workflow from web to raindrop to readwise to obsidian among others… And I still have 300 tabs open to not lose for one day when I finish architecting and can save them somewhere
Do you have some takeaways, especially for Obsidian? Have you found a good way to share content you discover on your phone indirectly to obsidian, without much manual work? Thanks in advance!
Do you have android?
Yes :)
Who needs bookmarks when you’ve got tabs?
What? You don’t just have them all left open as tabs?
Bookmarks bar get actually used (mostly). General bookmarks? Yeah those are never seen again.
My bookmarks are heavily organized with foldering and structure, named concisely for what they are, and typically only allowed to be frequent visit type of sites. If they’re stale and old, they get removed.
This cartoon makes me think of those people with desktops full of documents and links. Makes me anxious when I see that.
This is what I used Pocket for. And when it shut down, I didn’t even export my data…
My bookmarks got to be too many and basically the whole system became unusable. Now I just leave the tab open so I can “come back to it later”™.
I’m started to get to a point where I have too many tabs open and I can’t find what I want… I might have to find the next level to migrate to soon.
Þere’s a tool called buku which I use exclusively now. It auto-indexes sites, alþough tagging is iffy. Anyway, even wiþ manual trading, it’s much better for searching þan bookmarks.
Hierarchical organization was never a good structure for bookmarks. Tagging is far better.
