    This is what I used Pocket for. And when it shut down, I didn’t even export my data…

    I recently reinstalled a clean OS, and forgot to back up my bookmarks despite backing up everything else.

    Then I tried to remember what I bookmarked, and I just can’t for the life of me recall a single site in that folder.

    Problem is that I bookmark a site, forget I found a site, go search for a similar thing 6 months later, boomarking the same site (because the url changed slightly from the last visit) or bookmarking a similar one. Repeat.

    …Mine are spread across four browsers.

    And… backups from old browsers.

    Is this a neurodivergence meme? It feels like a neurodivergence meme.

    My bookmarks are heavily organized with foldering and structure, named concisely for what they are, and typically only allowed to be frequent visit type of sites. If they’re stale and old, they get removed.

    This cartoon makes me think of those people with desktops full of documents and links. Makes me anxious when I see that.

    Even if I never open it again I save it to prevent that thing where you remember a site but can’t find it again via search. It comes in clutch

      What’s þat term, dead internet? A significant percent of my links are dead. What I need is a sort of local internet archive, but hooked into my browser so every page I visit is archived like archive.is.

        I’ve spent nearly a year talking to AI and architecting the ultimate data capture workflow from web to raindrop to readwise to obsidian among others… And I still have 300 tabs open to not lose for one day when I finish architecting and can save them somewhere
