I did not stop bookmarking, I just radically simplified my routine. No (sub)folders, no system, just bookmark everything into one folder, lightly sprinkled with some tags from the top of my head.
Since I never know what I will actually find useful at a later time, I spend no energy organizing them. But having a simple record of my (want to) reads is super useful whenever my brain vaguely remember having seen or read something that comes up in a conversion/project, but not where and the exact name. Since I use broad on-the-top-of-my-head tags, I usually find what I'm looking for within a few seconds.
This strategy has lowered my barrier to bookmark something significantly, and reduced the mental overhead to almost zero.
Decades of overthinking my bookmarking habits and this has been by far the most useful system!
