Right now I’m moving my stuff from Floorp over to Librewolf and noticed that some of my bookmarks are ones that were auto-created by Manjaro.
Manjaro was the first Linux distro I used as a daily driver (after Windows Update ate my boot partition) around the spring of 2022. I know that four years is not a long time, but within context, I’ve wiped and reinstalled my PC at least six times (soon to be seven) and moved from Firefox to Brave to Floorp to Librewolf, and those bookmarks survived everything.

I have had browser tabs open longer than that I’m pretty sure. Don’t even get me started on bookmarks.
I have bookmarks from 2006. I stopped using bookmarks 10 years ago
I still have some bookmarks on my phone browser from when I was in school :3 I don’t really use the feature, so I forgot it was a thing until now and I checked lol
Do you just remember all the domains or what do you use instead of bookmarks?
Not the person you asked, but at some point I stopped using bookmarks and just started leaving 900 tabs open. I had no rational reason for this transition.
What happens if you close your browser and everything is wiped or switch machines?
Same! Check out tab groups. It’s a game changer, if you want to organize all those open tabs a bit.
Yeah, I operate mostly on the principle of “if it’s important, I’ll remember it/find it again”, though on some occasions I’ll also check my browser history in the rough time frame I know I was last on the site in question
