From time to time (months to years) I go back to those links (usually saved in my rss reader), or at least some of the newest, and try to turn some of those links into knowledge. Some may not work anymore, the remaining I try to put in categories/bookmarks, or give me time to read and then decide what to do with them. Sometimes that read implies more work, like taking notes, learning more about some discussed topics, link them somewhat with other pieces of saved content.
The awesome lists ( https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome and related ) helped me to take off some of the burden. It is not that I need to have those links, but having them somewhat available when I need them, at least for a lot of places/software/etc.
In the end, is in part some sort of external memory. Knowing how to recover something interesting you found about a particular topic make it useful. It implies work, not just storing but refreshing/(re)organizing and putting them into your present context. But either on time or volume you must put some restrictions.
