Google is shutting down Google Bookmarks. Here are alternatives

Google will shut down its Bookmarks service on September 30, 2021. The service won't be available afterwards anymore and users who use it have until then to export their bookmarks to save them.
Google Bookmarks is a free bookmarking service by Google that is available online and via third-party applications. It should not be confused with the Bookmarks feature of the Chrome web browser, as it is completely separate from Bookmarks.
Google Bookmarks was launched in 2005, predating Google Chrome. You can check if you have bookmarks saved to the service by opening https://www.google.com/bookmarks/ in any web browser.
If you have used Bookmarks throughout the years, you may be looking for an alternative. While you could use your browser's bookmarking feature and sync, it does fall short if you use different browsers or want access to your bookmarks online, regardless of device that you use, e.g. a terminal that you don't own.
Google Bookmarks Alternatives
A Bookmarks alternative should offer a similar feature set, at the very least; this means access via a website and easy management of bookmarks.
Saved -- Saved is a simply online tool. It requires an account but setting up an account is free. Bookmarks can be saved by prepending saved.io/ in front of URLs open in any web browser. These are saved to your account then and you may access all bookmarks from the main site at any time using any Internet browser.
Raindrop -- Raindrop is available as a free and paid service. It has more to offer than just bookmarking support. You can install browser extensions or apps, create collections, use tags and filters, automate saves, and more. Paying members get additional features such as a full text search, duplicate and broken link finder, and cloud backup support.
Pinboard -- Pinboard is a commercial bookmarking service that is available for $22 per year. Pinboard lets you bookmark from any browser, and you may sync the data with Instapaper or Pocket. It features full text search and dead link checks. Browser plugins are available, as are third-party clients.
Mozilla Pocket -- Pocket is available as a free and commercial version. You may use it to save content that you discover on the web. Pocket saves links but it makes articles available on its site as well in a readable way (just the main content). It features a discovery service tags and an archive. The Premium version removes advertisement, saves article copies automatically, better search capabilities and more.
Now You: do you use Bookmarks? How do you manage them?


Doesn’t Windows 8 know that www. or http:// are passe ?
Well it is a bit difficulty to distinguish between name.com domains and files for instance.
I know a service made by google that is similar to Google bookmarks.

@Ashwin–Thankful you delighted my comment; who knows how many “gamers” would have disagreed!
@Martin
The comments section under this very article (3 comments) is identical to the comments section found under the following article:
https://www.ghacks.net/2023/08/15/netflix-is-testing-game-streaming-on-tvs-and-computers/
Not sure what the issue is, but have seen this issue under some other articles recently but did not report it back then.
Omg a badge!!!
Some tangible reward lmao.
It sucks that redditors are going to love the fuck out of it too.
With the cloud, there is no such thing as unlimited storage or privacy. Stop relying on these tech scums. Purchase your own hardware and develop your own solutions.
This is a certified reddit cringe moment. Hilarious how the article’s author tries to dress it up like it’s anything more than a png for doing the reddit corporation’s moderation work for free (or for bribes from companies and political groups)
Almost al unlmited services have a real limit.
And this comment is written on the dropbox article from August 25, 2023.

For the God’s sake, fix the comments soon please! :[
Yes. Please. Fix the comments.
With Google Chrome, it’s only been 1,500 for some time now.
Anyone who wants to force me in such a way into buying something that I can get elsewhere for free will certainly never see a single dime from my side. I don’t even know how stupid their marketing department is to impose these limits on users instead of offering a valuable product to the paying faction. But they don’t. Even if you pay, you get something that is also available for free elsewhere.
The algorithm has also become less and less savvy in terms of e.g. English/German translations. It used to be that the bot could sort of sense what you were trying to say and put it into different colloquialisms, which was even fun because it was like, “I know what you’re trying to say here, how about…” Now it’s in parts too stupid to translate the simplest sentences correctly, and the suggestions it makes are at times as moronic as those made by Google Translations.
If this is a deep-learning AI that learns from users’ translations and the phrases they choose most often – which, by the way, is a valuable, moneys worthwhile contribution of every free user to this project: They invest their time and texts, thereby providing the necessary data for the AI to do the thing as nicely as they brag about it in the first place – alas, the more unprofessional users discovered the translator, the worse the language of this deep-learning bot has become, the greater the aggregate of linguistically illiterate users has become, and the worse the language of this deep-learning bot has become, as it now learns the drivel of every Tom, Dick and Harry out there, which is why I now get their Mickey Mouse language as suggestions: the inane language of people who can barely spell the alphabet, it seems.
And as a thank you for our time and effort in helping them and their AI learn, they’ve lowered the limit from what was once 5,000 to now 1,500…? A big “fuck off” from here for that! Not a brass farthing from me for this attitude and behaviour, not in a hundred years.
