My biggest issue is that they don't interoperate across browsers. The idea that I would use a single browser is crazy. I don't use a single browser on one device on any of the devices I use. If the browsers treated themselves less like silos, people would be more encouraged to use them for this sort of note taking.
- tehbeard 5y ago> The idea that I would use a single browser is crazy Honestly, and as someone who uses >1 browser, you are an outlier. For the vast majority, you click the "beachball" or the "red fox" and that's how you internet. And among those that use >1 browser, I don't want bookmarks or other stuff interoped/shared. I'm specifically using seperate browsers to keep things seperate. I don't know how well Firefox Pocket works, but Google seems to have no issue keeping bookmarks between phone and desktops synced just fine.
- jamesmaniscalco 5y agoI have had a good experience with the browser plugin floccus, which I use to sync bookmarks to a self-hosted NextCloud instance. It has cross browser support. I have a 'sync' folder that is shared across all browsers/devices, as well as local-only bookmarks on each device (home/work/mobile/etc.)
- kwhitefoot 5y agoShould be easy to fix. Firefox already shares such data with other Firefox instances on other devices. And a UI to export the bookmarks is already present, so exporting to other browsers should be easy to automate. But, I use Firefox everywhere except for one Android table that because of Google stupidity/cupidity/rapaciousness doesn't have room to install Firefox even though it has a nearly empty 128 GB SD card.
