I often find myself browsing videos on different invidious instances or posts on various lemmy instances, and I would love to be able to create a “watch later” list or a “favorite” list that works across all of them. I don’t want to have to manually import and export these lists between different instances, either, like I have to do on lemmy, invidious, etc.

I’m currently using a single bookmarks folder to keep track of everything, but I don’t like this because it’s a mess. I’d like to be able to create two or three different lists for different groups of websites, so that I can easily find what I’m looking for. For example, a favorite list for reddit, tumblr, etc, another favorite list and a watch for later list for invidious instances, and other lists for other sites.

Is there any way to achieve this? I’m open to using browser extensions, third-party apps, or any other solutions that might be out there. I would prefer a free solution, but I’m willing to consider paid options as well.

A bookmark can only exist in one folder at a time, whereas I want to be able to add a single item to multiple lists (e.g., both “favorites” and “watch later”).

I believe the closest to what I’m looking for are Raindrop.io, Pocket, Wallabag, Hoarder, etc.

I use Manjaro Linux and Firefox.

    A text file(s) with a list of links. Use LibRedirect or some other redirector extension to redirect the links to the instance of your choosing, just change the redirector when you want to change instances.

    Also- Couldn’t you add ‘groups’ to your current setup by just creating folders in your existing bookmarks? (assuming you’re using bookmarks that are baked into your browser)
