Not the OP, but I also have a lot of tabs. In every browser I’ve tried the bookmark manager is rather primitive. I once ran into a Floccus bug that duplicated tens of thousands of bookmarks and discovered bookmark managers also don’t scale very well.
The bigger problem with bookmarks for me is the inability to manage relationships. With the Tree Style Tabs add-on in Firefox and vertical tabs in Orion, child tabs are opened in a tree. It codifies my search context and makes tab management quite easy. The analog in bookmarks is using folders, but they’re rather tedious to create when bookmarking and I can’t think of any browser that will auto-create nested folders when bulk bookmarking tabs.
- Toorkit 2y agoI've been using Sidebery, which has a feature to bookmark the whole panel. It then creates a subfolder for every indentation in the tree.
- EasyMark 2y agoWhat? The bookmark manager easily allows for tree structured saving of bookmarks with bookmark folders. Am I missing something here?
- nirvdrum 2y agoWill it automatically create the folders based on the ancestry of tab open events? I acknowledged that you can nest folders, but find it incredibly tedious to have to do it manually. If you know of a way to carry the tab tree over to bookmarks I’d be very interested in knowing how. Absent that, it’s considerably easier to leave the tabs open. The tree will even be restored when the browser starts should I need to reboot.
- EasyMark 2y agoIt seems like it would be awfully easy to lose a lot of "links" when you inevitably have a crash and the browser loses all your tabs forever whereas ff and chrome both have sync which can restore your bookmarks.
