Around 50-70 refs/guides/tools/eshops pages and hundreds of links to whatever, mostly loras and potential datasets. I have zero “good read for later” bookmarks, cause that’s formula for garbage.

Tried to look for managers before but they are selling me features I won’t need irl.

My bookmarks are organized into folders on the bookmark bar, and my browser allows to click a folder (and any subfolders) and “add active page” to it without a dialog.

There’s also a star icon in urlbar that opens a dialog with a title and folder selection. It adds or edits a bookmark and remembers the last folder (“add active page” doesn’t disturb it).

A bookmark can be in two+ folders.

Bookmarks I visit frequently have proper names like “Node FS” or “CSS Flex”.

What I could really use:

- find duplicates

- some 2-panel tree+list editor that allows quicker sorting into specific folders

- bookmarks store a screenshot of a page’s current viewport at the moment of bookmarking

- “thumbnail view” of screenshots in a folder or preview by hovering over a list item

I don’t think I need autogrouping, cause dynamic lists are not good for muscle memory (I locate mans/refs instantly cause they are always there). And for non-memorized hundreds I group them by criteria which a software couldn’t pick without mind reading anyway.
