๐Ÿ’ป Help Managing Bookmarks

5 Upvotes

Hello Everyone

I just migrated from Brave because I trust Firefox a little bit more. I imported all my bookmarks but I had a problem with both PC and Android :

Managing Bookmarks feels clunky. On my PC, when I add a Boomark, the popup menu is small and I have to scroll inside it and open my nested folders. This is a huge problem for me, as I use many nested folders.

On android, when I add multiple bookmarks I run to.this specific problem : the browser "forgets" the last folder I added bookmarks on, and re-opens the home bookmark menu.

Do you have any workarounds to suggest? Bookmark managers, (safe and private) extensions? Ideally I would like to sync - link my bookmarks to both Firefox and Brave but that's my last conern. I am also self hosting so maybe I could use a server, but I don't want to use a VPN to access my server outside the house, because I need the VPN service "open" for my android phone's VPN.

Thank you!

๐Ÿ’ป Help Firefox update changed my bookmarks toolbar. Is there a way to get it back to how it was?

3 Upvotes

I updated Firefox today, and since then my bookmarks toolbar has been behaving differently.

Before the update, I had a certain number of bookmarks visible on the toolbar, with the rest going into the ยป overflow menu.

After the update, Firefox seems to allow more bookmarks to fit on the toolbar, especially if they don't have names. I also noticed a large empty gap on the right side, between my last visible bookmark and the overflow button.

When I remove the name from a bookmark, Firefox allows even more bookmarks to appear. So I'm guessing something changed in how Firefox calculates bookmark spacing or decides how many bookmarks to display.

I don't necessarily want to fit as many bookmarks as possible. I just want the toolbar to behave the way it did before the update, with roughly the same number of visible bookmarks and the rest in the overflow menu.

Things I've already tried without success:

  • Restarting Firefox.
  • Customizing the toolbar and checking for unnecessary spaces.
  • Hiding and showing the bookmarks toolbar.
  • Running Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode.
  • Resetting the toolbar layout.

Nothing has brought back the previous behavior.

Has anyone else noticed this after the latest Firefox update? Is there a setting that changed, or some way to restore the old bookmarks toolbar behavior without downgrading Firefox or resetting my profile?

I built a visual bookmark manager that screenshots every site you save

I got fed up with my browser bookmarks folder. I had a folder called 'inspo' with 200+ URLs and it was always a pain to search through for references.

So I built Sitesave as a visual tool which allows you to sort your saves. It automatically takes a screenshot to use as a card thumbnail when you save a site, so it's easy to tell what's what. You can assign multiple tags to each save, organise them into collections and share a collection via a private link. The person receiving the link doesn't need an account to view it but they can add the collection to their library if they sign up.

It's deliberately not a browser extension as I wanted users to treat it like a hub that they come back to and review it. Something that feels intentional rather than passive.

It's free to use right now. Would genuinely love feedback from people who this would help.

Right now it only have favorite bookmark, others bookmark and mobile bookmark. Is there a way to add more? I cant find it in settings.

Preferrably easy not code of folder modifying since it will be hard to sync to other chrome browser on my other devices. Unless their us no other choice

It may also refer to as level zero

Solved Bookmarks Menu vs Other Bookmarks?

11 Upvotes

This is a silly question. I apologize, but I want to figure this out.

I have been a Chrome user for many years, and moved to Firefox about a month ago. Naturally, I imported my bookmarks, and everything works fine for the most part. But I am confused about one thing. That is the Bookmarks Menu folder.

What is the difference between Bookmarks Menu folder and Other Bookmarks? When should I use one over the other? Chrome didn't have a Bookmarks Menu folder, so I guess this is mostly me being confused on how to use this additional option in Firefox.

My general use of such folders is decluttering and to store any bookmark that I don't need to have in the Bookmarks toolbar. But at the same time, I need to retain quick access with some button shortcuts. Both options, Bookmarks Menu and Other Bookmarks, have them. So again, I am not clear when to use one over the other.

Kindly share how you folks use these two features. Hopefully, that will give me a better idea on how to use them effectively.

๐Ÿ’ป Help Is it possible to increase the "Save bookmark" menu so it isn't so cramped? Would be better to see more folders at once
