Recently I used to tidy up my pile with https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bookmarks-clean-up/
But still there about 800+ websites, articles to go. If I put it to AI, my token number will flush away. Whats your routine or recommendation?
I plan on retiring next year. My bookmark collection is so large, collected over the last 2 decades . . I’ve put this task on my “things to do in the first year” bucket. I expect it will take me days and days to sort through!
I run Linkwarden on my home server.
One folder is uncategorised catch all place and the rest is neatly categorised by projects I am working on linked to my notes.
I review once a while to clean up.
What do you use for notes and how do you connect it to Linkwarden? Many years ago I used Pocket (formerly known as Read It Later) and I eventually realized I was saving stuff and never going back to it.
I recently started saving stuff in HelixNotes because I figured the problem was saving things without context. (And putting them directly in my notes ensures there’s always context around them)
I haven’t tried Linkwarden but it sounds awesome. I just don’t wanna run into the same issue I had with hoarding links like I did with Pocket.
I currently use Obsidian for notes, I really like the canvas function this has to map out ideas and projects. Didn’t know HelixNotes, looks promising (and opensource, which Obsedian is not)
I don’t have a automatic connection between Obsidian and Linkwarden. I use Linkwarden for temporary storage and import the text/images into Obsidian via the browser plugin. Its a constant workflow for me so not a lot of buildup, but context deffinetly matters.
My bookmarks are organised into folders. Once an open folder gets a scroll bar, I prune the links.
I have three or four folders just for tvtropes. I checked one and it could be 100+
I didn’t check the others and stopped looking at my bookmarks for a long while
That long while is still going
I have hundreds of bookmarks, that I review constantly, and dozens of RSS feeds of sites I read news from. Sometimes I send myself messages on Telegrams to keep track of articles I want to read.
There’s a few hundred in there but they’re all at least 10 years old, and I never look at them.
i just bookmark everything i like even slightly, then i can search them back again with their title on my searchbar. i also extract all the urls from bookmarks.html and download them once a year or so for archival.
4k bookmarks atm. Accumulated over multiple decades. I don’t dare look at some parts of my bookmarks, but they are still useful; I have folders I refer to regularly, and doing a bookmark search with * in Firefox helps me find a lot of things I want to return to.
Mine are pretty full but I write lectures and use bookmarks to keep a record of sources if I ever need to revise something or cite my source. I do have everything organized by topic.
Bookmarks? I have a decent list, haven’t actually checked any of those links since I first bookmarked them.
Now, browser tabs that I have open on my phone? Probably close to 200.
I only have about 50 pages bookmarked, neatly organized in folders. How tf do some of you have hundreds of bookmarks?
