Hi there. I've been using Pinboard for over 10 years, and delicious bookmarks before that, but lately Pinboard's performance has been on and off. I recently tried raindrop.io, but it didn't suit me. Can anyone suggest similar tag-driven bookmark managers I can try out? Thanks!

Looks like a sweet alternative (currently use raindrop), but unfortunately would not be usable on my windows desktop

I’m curious. What do you find more useful about a tool like that rather than the built-in bookmark manager?

i used to do folder-based organization but eventually just started throwing bookmarked into larger buckets of general topics and then using the search in FireFox’s bookmark sidebar to find the one I want.

Checkout https://www.partizion.io/. Find it super useful because it auto-saves sessions (so I can close anything and not worry about losing it) and you can create permanent collections of tabs that you can restore in one click.

I’m using Raindrop.io but not for bookmarks, I’m using it to save all the interesting articles and stuff.

I currently use xBrowserSync and I've had zero issues, it may not be your exact use-case, but it does allow tagging of bookmarks, searching, etc.

DevonThink ToGo on iOS (DevonThink on Mac) is an excellent catch-all for any kind of content, including bookmarks which is a specific type for capturing. When you share, the modal that comes up has options for naming, assigning a type to format it properly (bookmark/webpage/pdf/markdown/etc), and tagging/flags/note.
