Link dump for macOS

Too many tabs. Too many bookmarks.

You find something interesting. An article, a tool, a video. "I'll check this later."

So you keep the tab open. Or save it to bookmarks. Or send yourself an email.

A week later you have 47 tabs and zero idea what any of them were about.

And if you use multiple browsers? Good luck. Safari bookmarks here, Chrome bookmarks there, Firefox somewhere else. No simple way to collect links from everywhere and open them wherever you need.

I needed something simpler. A place to dump links without thinking. No folders. No tags. No accounts. Just throw it in, find it later, open in any browser.

That's 500. A bucket for all those links. Five hundred, five thousand, whatever. Just dump them in.

How it works

A small window sits at the edge of your screen. See something interesting? Drag the link and drop it in. Done.

Later, when you need it, just search. One click to edit the name, double-click to open.

Drag & Drop - from any browser, just drag the URL

Search - find links instantly as you type

Browser choice - open each link in Safari, Chrome, Firefox, whatever

Export - HTML bookmarks, JSON, or Markdown
