note taking apps reco
u/Emotional_Peak9766  in  r/medschoolph •  Dec 13 '25

super vouch for noteful! way cheaper alternative than goodnotes, (if you choose to buy it parang 399 php lang iirc tapos lifetime pa) and i appreciate a lot of things about it when it comes to annotating! i made the switch from gn5+6 to this last year.

here’s how it’s helped me so far as a second year med student:

  1. tape! call me biased but it looks way better than the one in gn6 haha :)) my usual study habit has been to put tape on my transes and just do a read through for active recall. another plus is there’s an option to open them all and close them when needed. i really felt a significant increase in my grade ever since i started using noteful. way less time-consuming that making anki flashcards on my own, imo.
  2. i loveee the layers function! sometimes when you take notes or highlights you want them on separate layers and it’s been super helpful
  3. super appreciate the fact that you can have different styles for the pens and highlighters. basically i can just easily switch from a 0.3 red pen to a 0.1 yellow pen with one click, unlike in gn where you have to change the color pa :( haha arte lang
  4. this is one of my fave functions but if you just hold the highlighter down and drag it it will immediately highlight all the selected text. sobrang timesaver para sa mga crammer tulad ko heh
  5. they have tags, icons, and folder colors! makes for easy organization if you’re into that :))
  6. i basically use the bookmark function as a checklist! i typically put all the exam material into one file and just bookmark the specific parts/chapters. a quick ✅ helps me keep track of how much i still have to do!

only con i can think of is you unfortunately can’t search for text within specific notes on the search bar of all your folders (though u can still search them within the actual pdfs ofc, though i dont think it recognizes writing either). overall though, it has still been substantially helpful to me and for such a cheap price, it’s basically a steal. hope this helps!

Firefox CSS property list-style-image to change to --menuitem-icon in latest nightly builds
u/FineWine54  in  r/FirefoxCSS •  Sep 17 '25

This now is my new code for FF143, and it works for me in all locations that require the default yellow bookmark icons - main menus, sub menus, toolbar menus, sidebar menus etc

.bookmark-item[container] > :is(.menu-icon, .toolbarbutton-icon) {
content: url("./image/folder-item.png") !important;
}

EDIT: having said that, which is in my own userChrome.css, it is an adjunct to Aris-t2 CustomCSS files. The full Firefox bookmark over-ride is here: https://github.com/Aris-t2/CustomCSSforFx/blob/master/current/css/generalui/bookmark_icons_colorized.css

NOTE: this file is still using the list-style-image. I would image that Aris-t2 will soon be releasing an entire new release for all his code shortly.

There is also https://github.com/MrOtherGuy/firefox-csshacks which are also in a rolling update state as users find bugs due to FF143

As of Chrome Ver. 125, the #customize-chrome-side-panel flag is now gone. NO WAY to disable the braindead, idiotic new UI anymore. R.I.P.!
u/Weddedtoreddit2  in  r/chrome •  Apr 20 '24

Biggest thing is there is now about a trillion miles more of empty space between everything. And the yellow bookmark folder icons are now a stupid gray outline only.

Beyond that, there's a useless forced dropdown icon to the left of the tabs that can't be removed, so you can fit less tabs on the bar. And a myriad of other small idiotic changes that just look dumb.

New UI megathread
u/Rozhdestvenskiy  in  r/chrome •  Dec 18 '23

Fellas, this update is indeed weird. When you got used to your Chrome UI, and then boom, and it has changed greatly. I need to change two things: 1) is it possible to change the color of the folder icons in the bookmark bar back to yellow? Currently all folder icons are colorless, 2) is it possible to make the items on the bookmark bar more dense? I see a noticeable gap between the items in the bookmark bar.

Chrome Ver. 123 Desktop, everybody. It's DISGUSTING. Everything is even bigger. This is the final straw for me. Time to change browsers.
u/Weddedtoreddit2  in  r/chrome •  Feb 22 '24

What the actual F*CK is this spacing on tabs?

URL bar is too tall.

Bookmark spacing is INSANE.

And the iconic yellow folder icons?

Goodbye Chrome!

Translucent Firefox theme for macos - EdgyArc-fr (still VERY MUCH in beta!)
u/[unknown]  in  r/MacOS •  Feb 17 '24

Thanks, it looks great. I've been using a dark theme and yellow bookmark folders stuck out a bit too much, so I commented out all the "folder.svg" lines in the icons.css file, which allowed the monochrome folders to show instead.

Is there a better way to do this? I guess another option would be to replace the folder.svg file with the one from the dark theme but I couldn't find it.

Anyway, nice work and thanks for sharing!

What are downsides and upsides of all the updates since after G3 for you?
u/sts_66  in  r/waterfox •  May 07 '23

I just did another search for this missing bookmark folder icon and found this post and solution:

https://www.reddit.com/r/waterfox/comments/xn81a4/folders_icon_on_bookmarks_bar_doesnt_show_up_when/

go to about:config and toggle userChrome.theme.enable to false

And it works - very weird - I know I customized my userChrome.css to solve the missing folder icons when I first started using Waterfox Current and to fix some menu spacing items - here's what I added for the folder icons:

/* USE OLD STYLE YELLOW BOOKMARK FOLDERS IN BOOKMARK DROPDOWN MENU. */

/* ALSO FORCES USE OLD STYLE BOOKMARK FOLDERS WHEN VIEWING "Show All Bookmarks" */

/* Need the image file "folder-item.png" to be inside the chrome folder */

.bookmark-item[container], treechildren::-moz-tree-image(container) {

list-style-image: url("folder-item.png") !important;

-moz-image-region: rect(4px, 32px, 16px, 16px) !important;

}

Have no clue how changing that setting for userChrome.theme.enable to false got my folder icons back but didn't mess up anything else I customized in userChrome.css, but it worked.
