Ask HN: How do you manage bookmarks (grouping, freezing)

by isoos on 5/25/24, 5:01 PM with 1 comments

I'm one the tab hoarders, opening many browser windows (each for different topic), 10-50 tabs each. Besides the grouping, I also like to freeze a topic for months, revisiting them later (deferred buying or travel decisions). I'm looking for best practices to manage such setups effectively, willing to learn new ways and tools. What's your workflow that you are willing to share?

Open source and self-hosted tools preferred, but not mandatory.

    I don't really have a workflow but a nice tool is the OneTab browser extension (https://www.one-tab.com/) which will store all the tabs from the browser windows, they can be restored later, links can be moved between groups etc.

    I had a go at getting chatgpt to classify them by pasting in the link/title pairs from the onetab export tool and asking it to group them into similar topics. It was promising but didn't really scale due to the limit on message size. I'm sure a tweaked/retrained AI would do a pretty good job, not sure if there's tools out there already to do this.
