I want to be able to manage and sort them. I use firefox, so both tags and folders are okay. manually exporting groups of them to like documents related to the topic I was researching (and then removing the bookmark) would also be okay. Self-hosted solutions are also welcome.
Very successful post, thank you everyone for sharing your bookmark-related tools.
Yes certainly, and I think I'm gonna need a better UI than what firefox offers in order to do it. I'm real quick and messy about saving, so a lot is gonna get deleted for sure.
I use Nextcloud bookmarks with Floccus. Floccus can be installed as an add-on in Firefox and as an app on Android. It retains the folder structures of bookmarks.
Yeah I've used it for years and it's incredibly useful! I use the citation tool on it a lot and then I bought papership on my iPad to read the articles away from my computer
In the desktop app, I created a new folder called 'Bookmarks', then for subfolders I click the '+' icon next to 'folders' then enter 'Bookmarks/Whatever' and hey presto, I have a new subfolder called 'Whatever' under the 'Bookmarks' folder. I then add tags in the 'notes' section of each individual entry for easy searching.
