Over the years I have saved many bookmarks in Firefox in various folders for interesting, useful or just frequently used websites.
Now I’ve recently moved a lot of stuff to more private (foss/selfhosted) alternative and I’m considering moving browsers too. Since the bookmarks are so integrated into the browser I was wondering what you guys do/recommend in order to keep a bit more freedom.
One option I could think of would be to write them into a Markdown doc and to sync it with all the other notes I keep but that’s a bit inconvenient - there’s got to be a nicer way that doesn’t send every action to a browser corpo, right?
nextcloud bookmarks are it for me
as longs as u have ownership over your nextcloud instance, you can basically sync bookmarks from every firefox profile (i have a LOT) and to different computers or mobile devices
its helped me actually manage bookmarks and stay tidy, but then again most of the time bookmarks are just a glorified autocomplete for me now a days.
Yes! They are nice for navigation indeed. On Firefox you can even set keywore so all it takes to open youtube.com is typing ‘yt’ - I hope ungoogled Chromium can do that…
Thanks for suggesting nextcloud, didn’t know they could do that aswell.
