  • > Isn't this tab fatigue of every user not more a hint that bookmarking is broken?

    In some ways, I agree. My own solution was to develop reading lists storage (https://github.com/domovikapp/domovik-server/), i.e. an intermediate storage space between “saved for the years to come” of the bookmarks and the “in my face” pinned tabs. They are then displayed on my new tab page, so I can remember to read them whenever I open a new page.

  • Wallabag

    wallabag is a self hostable application for saving web pages: Save and classify articles. Read them later. Freely.

  • Can recommend this a lot. Using it to either save websites (wallabag downloads all HTML content) or catch up on longer articles I've added during train rides etc.

  • side-view

    An experiment with opening mobile views of pages in the sidebar

  • I do this my having two windows open side-by-side (a 32” 4K monitor and a tiling window manager make this easy) and just drag a link from the left browser window over to the right. Not as nice as simply clicking, but usable.

    If you’re willing to change browsers if necessary, Firefox has a Side View [0] extension that offers some functionality, though it’s just an “experiment” that hasn’t been updated in years.
