Are You also the kind of person who typically has 100+ tabs opened at any given time?
First I started putting everything in bookmarks.
As the mess shifted from the tabs to bookmarks, I started creating folders of bookmarks.
Then I reorganized the bookmark folders hierarchically and recursively.
Avoided "misc" folder like devil.
Sometimes I create some temp folder for stuff, which I'm planing to delete in the future. This could be an investigation, ticket-related stuff, gathering knowledge about a particular topic, etc. After job's done, one button click and clean.
Saves time for the daily used stuff.
Saves a lot of time for the something I need once a year!
And don't forget to back up the bookmarks time to time:
Chrome: bookmarks -> bookmark manager -> (three dots in the corner) -> export bookmarks
Firefox: bookmarks -> manage bookmarks -> import and backup -> export bookmarks to HTML

That's a next level organisational grit. Mad respect. How long did it take to complete the entire scope?
It's interesting you're sticking with native browser bookmarks. Why not use a more sophisticated bookmark manager app?
I developed a browser extension for saving tabs. It's a way easier way to find links and keep your bookmarks organised. You can even import your bookmarks with their current structure. You're clearly a power-user, and I'd love to get your feedback.
That looks like a cool extension, thanks for sharing!
I'll definitely try it out!
Tabler.one is indeed a fantastic option; you should definitely give it a try.
In the defense of bookmarks 😅 we've been working on an extension that enhances the native bookmark experience and also help with tab management.
The idea is to bridge the gap between tabs and bookmarks management, to let you save better and feel safe closing tabs!
Oh great, thanks for sharing and creating such a great tool!
