The thing is, your system requires a lot of discipline. If I had discipline, I would almost not need a tool :/

A very low effort way to do something like this is the following:

1) for any article, I save to read later. I used to use Pocket for many years, but recently switched to the new readwise reader. This makes it easy to search later.

2) if it’s a website or service/repo I want to be able to find later, I often screenshot it on the iPhone, and that’s it. The only downside is that you end up with a lot of screenshots in your camera roll. But now it’s quite easy to search for any text and the new iPhone automated OCR works incredibly well. I also sync all these images to google photos, which also lets you search for text in the images.
