If you click 'favorite' it will save it to your favorites list. This is a publicly visible list - yours is https://news.ycombinator.com/favorites?id=bravetraveler https://news.ycombinator.com/favorites?id=bravetraveler and mine is https://news.ycombinator.com/favorites?id=shagie https://news.ycombinator.com/favorites?id=shagie which makes it easy to get a bookmark type style functionality within HN.
As I tend to favorite less often than I comment, it makes it easier to find those things I want to find again.
- bravetraveler 4y agoMuch appreciated! I'm woeful about using not using features like this, it's a character fault at this point. The HN interface too tends to just have my eyes filter out those links... but that's no defense. Especially good to know that it's publicly viewable! Not that I'm particularly worried of being outed by anything I favorite here, it's just good to be mindful of the data we make and where it goes.
