I started converting my bookmarks to Raindrop.io and noticed the following:

- timeless recipes and instructions should rather be saved locally (pdf, mp4)

- research oriented links are better saved in a doc or kms for multi-device and person access.

- travel & outdoors oriented links are sometimes best saved in a map app (especially those allowing you to save notes like “Organic Maps”).

- tech “how-to” links are often not save-worthy when advice is/was easy to find, especially when tech or best practices change.

- organizing many links with folders is really frustrating when categories overlap and you end up duplicating links using extra url parameters (ex: abc.com/#1)

- most things I save only have tags. I use folders for things like account access, car, finance, and health where visible, quick access is important.

- organizing can become a chore and reason to procrastinate on much more of important things in life.

- Naming categories, folders is hard, and I wish Raindrop or other services used word2vec or other tools to improve indexing and search results in case keywords used are insufficient or slightly off

"travel & outdoors" > I do the same thing, Google Maps stars for me.
