I'm stuck.
I have accumulated a decent set of browser bookmarks, both in the browser and in my notes. And I need to combine them somehow, comb a little and structure the whole set to make it more accessible. Like, tools, articles, documentation, whatnot.
Currently, I use default browser bookmarking capabilities and divide links by topics (in a deeply nested way). I don't use any specific tools, though I had taken a look at a bunch of them and didn't stop at anything.
What is your way of keeping your bookmarks in order? What tools do you use? How do you structure the whole system? What is your approach to fast access and synchronization?

My biggest pain point with just using Chrome bookmark folders is that for me they get very nested very fast
I put all my computer science, programming and web development bookmarks into web pages, curated and presented in a nice way, such as here:
annietaylorchen.com/resources
Whenever I need to do something I go to this page and quickly found them due to the visual guide. ;) I never need to worry about switching browsers. My tip is that: do NOT hoard stuff you seldom refer to.
Yea, absolutely 👍 and this is the most spectacular way to store bookmarks!
Toby all the way.
Have a look at bookmarks.dev - it's a side project I developed myself
to help me with the bookmarks management struggle...
Yea, several people mentioned it here already 👍
I use firefox.It allows you to add tags bookmarks.So I search using tags in the address bar.
I use Microsoft OneNote clipper .
Trust me, You dont have to do a thing this way.
All your bookmarks can be saved to a particular section now.
You can choose to save direct link/ page snapshot/ or just plain HTML.
Its way easier to search/edit/organize your notes this way.
I have a lots of bookmarks, literally a lot, in my browser (currently chromium). I have been managing (of course not well managed) since 2010 (or maybe earlier than that). Back then I used to use firefox as a default browser and then switched to chrome, safari, opera, and whatnot. And now I am using Chromium. I tried many plugins and extensions, but none of them worked as expected :D Hence currently I am using chromium/chrome's native bookmark manager synced with my account along with multiple devices (laptops and mobile phones) and I am okay with this.
Thanks for sharing your screenshot, gonna steal some ideas and the overall structure.
By the megabyte.
Thus far —gettoby.com has been the best for me. Unfortunately it’s chrome only unless they fixed their Firefox extension.
It’s helpful for me to be able to share a bunch of links at one go.
