Funnily the another me deep inside somehow agree with you lol. I even think about it while archiving 'Do I really need it in the future?'

However as a neat freak, archiving things, put it out of sight, gives me a bit peace of mind. With bookmark, I still see its accumulated through time and always feel the need to do something about it, even it not necessary.

Maybe one day I will realize and decide that all the thing I save is just nonsense and throw everything away. One day...:)

I can relate with you!

However, to prevent the time-expensive and often difficult-to-answer question 'Do I really need it in the future?', I'm archiving (more or less) everything.

Concerning your archiving method, I am suggesting: Create a folder in your bookmarks called 'Archive'. A psychological trick to reduce mental burden similar to the archive button in Google Keep :)

Sound like the sanest and sustainable way dealing with information overload. I'll give it a try, Thanks. :)
