Where does one store favorite links so I can handle them on phone and two separate machines?
- CatWChainsaw 3y agoYou value the syncing browser accounts offer. Personally I like being able to go between several of my own computers and not have all settings synced. It's not a fresh slate situation but it is a bit freeing to not carry all my digital baggage all the time.
- pseudalopex 3y agoGood for you. Firefox accounts are optional.
- CatWChainsaw 3y agoIndeed. I happen to know this because I use Firefox on a daily basis and have never once been pestered to use one.
- pseudalopex 3y agoSo a browser with accounts works for you. So your comment was irrelevant.
- CatWChainsaw 3y agoWow, you sure got me. You want a medal or something?

- cogman10 3y agoI prefer to telnet it over with a bespoke protocol loosely based on gopher.
- sedatk 3y agoHold on, let me spin up my IMP nodes first.
- davidwritesbugs 3y agothat sounds like the lazy guy's way of doing it.
- dr_kiszonka 3y agoWonderful comment. Thanks : - )
- mistercheph 3y agoThis niche use case which offers a marginal benefit even to those who want it, is a laughable mask for the assembly and deployment of one of the world's largest data harvesting networks, the browser 'sync' account

- brewdad 3y agoWhat about bookmarks that I don’t necessarily want to be publicly known. Not even talking about anything potentially embarrassing. Things like where I bank or my doctor’s appointment booking page.
- dredmorbius 3y agoPresumably that's a small set of bookmarks which you could manage across devices. Other options might be to have that personal homepage on a non-public machine (e.g., on your home or office LAN), behind a VPN, and/or password protected. Another practice from days of yore was to export specific bookmarks and transfer those to other systems. This is indeed cumbersome with mobile browsers (I'm not sure these even offer bookmark import/export ... Looks as if that's synch-only for Firefox/Android, which is disappointing.

- Eldt 3y agoLinkding is great, and has some browser extensions to inject your favourites into relevant search pages on the likes of google, ddg, bing, etc, which was a nice idea I hadn't considered before
- themadturk 3y agoI'm using raindrop.io. So far, even the free tier works well for me.
