Discussion on: Do you actually read your bookmarked posts?

A lot of the time... No. However, it's a great search engine for stuff I may need to read. I'll sort of have a notion in my mind that I need to catch back up with something that caught my attention and if I've bookmarked it, I have an easier time finding it.

I can relate to this. But majority of those posts are things I have to re-read or re-consume. Mostly not things I am yet to read. Obviously there is a small portion which I bookmark in the hope of being useful in the future. But I have been suppressing this as much as I can recently. I will anyways search for that particular information online when I eventually need it right?

Also, wouldn't a notion means more labour from your end to maintain? Cos using something like Firefox sync means you can use it in mobile and desktop. It is also accessible within your regular browsing without the need for another app. This removes the extra middle man Notion is becoming here. Just thinking out loud here. Thanks for sharing anyways. :)
