Free online bookmark manager?

Any experience?

Chrome and Edge sync bookmarks to a profile and across devices.

Been a while since I used an online bookmark manager. Curious what extra functions you're looking for.

In the same way people have a better user experience with online password managers i was just wondering if it was the same for online bookmark managers.

Why wouldn't you use the one built into the browser? Log in, turn on sync done. This isn't the same as a password manager you don't really need secure bookmarks as it's not really important data as such.

Same can be done with browser passwords but a password manager give a better user experience so i wondered if a bookmark manager would be the same.

Just thought i'd ask before i waste time trying them out.

LOL, that why i asked for user experience instead of guessing.

I'm not guessing I know. But I put I think so you don't hold me liable for your wasted amount of time and sue me.

If i find one i like you'll have to try it to see if it can change you.

You won't they are all horrible. There's another way but involves creating a webpage with bookmark links on it.

Actually.... you could use an open source bookmark platform then set it as your homepage. That might work.

Rather than going to that effort you might as well just use the one in your Browser.

That's up to you - I told you though. You heard it here first mind.

Just been trying Google's top result raindrop.io and so far i really like it, You can do everything from a webpage without any need for a plugin or syncing.

I've only spent 10mins with it so i'll see how it goes.

SOLD! , raindrop is a beautiful thing, Just like a password manager it makes life a lot easier and gives a better user experience.

Each family member can have their own account and it's so easy to use that even my elderly uncle (who's going dotty) can use it without any need for plugins and syncing.The export html file is also compatible with firefox.

It's really fast, if anybody wants to try it out the signup process for raindrop.io only asks for a username and password and it accepts disposable email addresses if you want to make a quick temp test account.
