Ask HN: Why are bookmarks second class citizens in browsers?
I don't know about Chrome, but in Firefox:    Chrome now hides the bookmark bar by default

Not sure if it is the default, but my Firefox bookmark bar is always visible    load common favorite news sites & blogs
    or load a window with all my productivity SaaS sites.

Shift+Click on a bookmark folder does that    pick up where i left off on a research rabbit hole

Right-Click on one of the open tabs, click "select all tabs", right-click it again and click "Bookmark Tabs"    i want it to be intuitive, efficient, and a prominent UX feature set

I'm a heavy user of bookmarks, and I am pretty happy with the state of bookmarks in Firefox.What I do miss is a way to back them up from the command line. Firefox has a nice "Export Bookmarks to HTML" function, but it seems only available from the GUI, so there is no way to automatically backup the bookmarks in this nice format. I tried for a while to extract them from the SQLite DB FireFox stores them in, but the layout of that DB is pretty complex and bloated. Even after a bit of fiddling, I wasn't sure I really correctly got the data out.
