My bookmark manager is also a web scraper.
Do you happen to know if it supports tabs in code blocks (renders tabs as tabs instead of spaces equivalent)? I failed to find a way to test without installing.
The author, bouncepaw, is very friendly. If you need a TAB to look like it's, say 4 SPACEs wide, perhaps he will accept a feature request.
I've written a lot about this, and I got so annoyed with bookmarking and highlighting services getting it so frustratingly wrong[2] that I wrote my own solution from the ground up in 2020[3], and I have never looked back to Pinboard, Instapaper or Readwise.
It's honestly not that hard once you get the mental model and if you aren't interested in using a service you can easily build something that suits your own needs over a few weekends.

There are lots of similar tools that also support this flow; basically anything that supports note backlinks (Obsidian, Joplin, Logseq, etc.). I don't ever really use browser bookmarks, because I never found myself actually doing anything but saving links (I never referred to them later). I actually find and navigate to links I save in my notes all the time though.
It helps visualize and organize bookmarks into boards, which you can then share with others. It also scrapes the contents of the links, which is then searchable.
You can see an example of it in action here:

Maybe this can help?
Edit: Also it’s the first time for me to try to do an extension for all three browsers at the same time, Chrome, Edge, and Firefox.
On the paper it works great, if only you can tags those links and write a comprehensive description using keywords you'll remember. But in real life, it's something like this: https://links.l3m.in/en/ and the search barely work (because no tags nor description is not helping).
The project seems cool btw!
https://raindrop.io/ apparently also has full-text search for page contents as a paid feature. I'm on the free tier and haven't tried it either.
- I want tags in my bookmarks.
- Firefox no logger supports tagged bookmarks.
- -> I need to use a third-party service (Raindrop) for bookmarking.
- Common web searches in the Firefox address bar do not search my bookmarks at the same time, as they would normally. I need to directly use Raindrop to search specifically from my bookmarks.
- -> I might save useful things but forget about them entirely, and end up searching for them again.
How so? You can still set tags on bookmarks, and those tags get matched by text you type in the address bar to determine what bookmarks to show you.
> Common web searches in the Firefox address bar do not search my bookmarks at the same time, as they would normally.
Yeah, that's something I would love Firefox to add: a local search index for full-content search of every page in my bookmarks and history, based on my cache.
You can get some of that in various combinations, but I haven't seen all of it.
I didn't end up completing the project, though. I lost the code once due to an unfortunate home directory accident. I also worked both the front and backends at the same time, which slowed things down. Additionally, it was more of a hobby project where I was just learning the tech stack.
The end goal was sort of a small federation of independent indexes of good-quality webpages, which could function as a search tool for use cases such as finding different alternatives in a certain product category. Search results would be ranked based on how many linked instances save the links.
I might end up trying Betula, but it doesn't really seem to fulfill my ideal. I'm fine with Raindrop too, search works, and publishing my bookmarks is not a passion of mine.
It automatically opens a Save link page, parses URL, Title and even description if there is one or you selected some with a cursor.
On bookmarks, if you impose some logic and organization, you can actually deal with a large number of them.
My only real gripe with Firefox is that the mobile client lacks the option to add tags. So frustrating!
1) The central party running the website accumulates value from its growing network but doesn’t want liability for their database being hacked and corrupted (eg having someone give themselves a lot of votes or internal credits), or prevent the fear that they won’t pay out (eg when PayPal froze accounts for the tiniest reasons, or Lebanese banks, or Canada, etc.). In the past this was partially solved with reuquiring middlemen to post surety bonds in every state and registering as a money transmitter. But many marketplaces (eg Etsy, Ebay, Kickstarter, Uber Eats) today operate in a gray area when they do payouts.
2) When a community (whether local or global) are engaging in some ongoing collective action and want to make sure everyone can verify the rules were followed, without relying on fallible middlemen. The Factory Pattern allows them to easily verify that the publicly audited software was indeed not tampered with. Examples include: contests, elections, roles and permissions, escrow transactions, memberships with recurring subscriptions, disbursements to approved entities etc. In the past we just had bank accounts be a block box for most investors etc.

Bookmarking software isnt one of them.

so I can hardly see the benefit of them going off and propagating throughout the entire known universe
