I save a txt file at the start of a search with a random number in the name (I let vscode decide that), then I can just save files with the random string and can sort them later.
I save all my search terms as I proceed (and record all word-stemming, plurals..), and indent hits, and then search for cites and indent again where hits, then when a sub-search dries up I start again with a new string and so on. I find it saves a lot of time, reduces saving junk and I can always go back. And I get a valid cite chain.
I search in epic-browser as it cuts down the clutter. Mostly on scholar (I turn off citations and patents and usually start with all years as some things are mis-dated, this also and issue with ResearchGare where their pub date May be decades after the paper date), sometimes the open web (altho' mainly on specific domains; .edu .ac ..). Some countries I exclude.
