Let users categorize Bookmarks #4465

Open noantiq opened 1 month ago

noantiq commented 1 month ago

Pitch

Give users the ability to categorize bookmarks. This could be done with user defined categories and some kind of folder structure where users "save" posts in a specific bookmark folder or tag like categories, where each bookmark can potentially have multiple bookmark tags.

The idea is, of course, not new. The concept of bookmark categories exists in browsers for a long time already and even in Instagram you can categorize your saved posts. Nevertheless I didn't find any related issues when searching for issues related to bookmarks.

Motivation

I frequently bookmark posts to come to easily find them again and come back to them later. Unfortunately that results in having to scroll through my long list of bookmarks trying to find something far too often. It unfortunately doesn't scale too well.

Needs support by a Server Api, you should ask Mastodon first

Thank you for the pointer. I actually found https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/28409 and https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/16595 that already suggest something similar.
