  In Firefox:

  Cmd + D creates a bookmark.

  Cmb + B shows existing bookmarks that you can edit and organise.

  They sync through your Firefox account too.

  It's a great system.

  Check out Odin (https://savewithodin.com/), a YC company. Started by friends that I made at a hacker house in Mountain View. I think its only on mobile for now (playstore and iOS), but works across apps and websites.

  https://www.charli.ai --> add hashtags and notes to bookmarks and visualize them in a Pinterest-like board. Has a web app and chrome extension.

  https://www.teamsyncbookmarks.com --> create shared bookmark folders in your browser (chrome + firefox). Add your team to sync with their browser or can use it just for yourself when you need access to bookmarks across diff browsers.

  I considered Raindrop.io [1] at some point, but I ended up with Firefox bookmarks. I have an account and the bookmarks are synced. [2]

  Mobile app is inferior to competitors, but Mozilla products are trustworthy. [3]

  Things that get visited often: firefox bookmark toolbar.

  Things that get visited every so often: firefox bookmark toolbar folder with similar links.

  Things that might be interesting to lookup or are part of current/past research: single text file with descriptions, links, etc.

  Things that have to be checked/researched eventually: gitlab issue with link in title

  It's not perfect for sure, but works very well nonetheless.

  LinkAce seems to be a nice Bookmark Manager to self host.

  I tried different bookmark solutions and didn't work for me.

  Currently, I use chrome bookmark. I use different keywords(tags) to bookmark a page. Working out good so far.

  For example, I am bookmarking a page related to javascript or react tutorial or an article. I will add few keywords to the beginning of bookmark title like #JavaScript #React #TypeScript #MongoDB etc. I may also add a year as a tag #2021

  I typically just throw random, interesting links into a folder. Then periodically I create a new folder named YYYY-MM-DD and move everything into that folder. All of these are moved into an Archive folder to get them out of the way.

  I have started using Collections in Edge. Better than Chrome Bookmarks in terms of UX
