    Stop attacking me!

    Then you forget or misremember the name of the site or idea, and it’s just lost in a sea of broken dreams.

    You know what moment brings me true joy?

    Whenever I accidentally close my main browser window but have a second window open so that the browser forgets all my open tabs.

    That’s when I’m able to live in bliss for a few days.

    Backup your bookmarks and then delete all of them. The backup is for peace of mind “just in case I ever need one of them” (you won’t)

      Try that count on each of 5 separate browser window. Amaeteur. I exaggerate, of course. Only a couple have that many tabs. I actually closed a window today - it only had 8 tabs - and opened a new one with more tabs from the references of the pages I closed. Eventually I will read the internet.

      I realized I got this from my mom when she asked me to fix her slow phone and the problem ended up being that the tab count on her phone’s browser was “:D”

      I go a step further and (browser) bookmark each post I save. All of the bookmarks are sorted by Comments vs Post, and Community. This means I can ensure that I can search by the title of the post in my bookmarks.

      Just like basically every mental attribute, ADHD is a spectrum. I’ve been diagnosed ADHD but don’t have it half as bad as many of the people here seem to, and yet I’ve also had a variety of bad reactions to every medication I’ve tried. Other people may have a few symptoms but not enough to bother getting a diagnosis, as it may not affect their daily lives at all.

      But also I’m another person who has too many favorites to ever properly read through, so this is a definitely real, medically valid internet comment diagnosis that you undoubtedly have ADHD

        Also there is a problem with some clinics diagnosing adhd ad hoc

        You just go they talk to you and bam you get diagnosis after one hour of half assed interview and questionnaire. It’s more or less harmless for individual imo but you waste money and time where the problem may be something different

        I don’t know how to approach this fake half assed diagnosis topic but it has disturbed my inner peace and itches the back of the brain

      This is something everyone does in varying degree and does not necessarily mean you have ADHD.

      Looking at this behaviour in isolation says nothing WRT whether or not you have ADHD…so the answer is maybe, maybe not.

    Jokes on you, I just keep tab groups on my phone. Only 3 groups of 500 tabs are hanging out and it’s it’s own overwhelming problem…

      And you can tie in AI ✨! So you can make an LLM categorize the stuff that you’ll never look at again.

        Honestly, I think this was probably the initial product idea for this Microsoft Recall shit. If I could have something like that running locally, open-source and with a non-insane security architecture, I’d never again use a folder in my life.

        Dump it all to ~/mytrashpile and let the AI figure out what I want I’m looking for 😄

          It supports using a self-hosted LLM, and it’s used for automating tags. It’s not really generative AI, and you don’t need to send your data to the cloud.

      My first response to seeing this:

      “Interesting. I’ll add this as a bookmark so that I can go back to it later.”

      Honestly, with how many projects I have bookmarked, I should probably allocate some time to just looking through my bookmarks to see if anything especially interesting stands out.

      At work I use tab groups to keep them organized by project, so I can tell just how far behind/how overwhelmed I am with a given project by the count of tabs in a given tab group.

      It’s a highly effective way to quantify my work-related anxiety.

    I’m certain my wife is ADHD, undiagnosed.

    One thing she does is constantly buy storage containers of all shapes and sizes to organise her insanely disorganised world.

    All this has achieved is an insane amount of forgotten storage containers in the house and we have no idea what’s in any of them.

    And yes, she once attempted to buy a giant storage unit to store her storage containers.

    I know that in the future AI will scour my screenshot folder and group everything neatly, add tags even.

      Also maybe we will be able to prompt our pc with a local open source model “pick all science related screenshots and group by the topic” - sure 1344 results, do you want to see them?, no list all the topics, - astronomy(34), quantum(23), ethnology(10)

        I don’t see whats stopping you from doing exactly that ten years ago. What you describe it just tag searching. Plenty of software exists to do that.

          You’re missing the point that actually requires tagging and organization to begin with.

          The difference they are talking about is automatic parsing and natural language understanding of their screenshots and other data.

      Newer Pixel phones can do this already, and I quite like it. Basically a local model on the device writes a text description for each screenshot, and you can sort/categorize them based on that. It will refuse to describe particularly spicy screenshots (either political or graphic), but perhaps that’s a good thing.

      You do need to sell your soul to the corpo overlords though and join the Google ecosystem, which I continue to have mixed feelings about.

        I wonder if there is a way to do this on a degoogled graphene OS installed pixel phone.

        BTW, I’m looking for a source of a cheap pixel 6 or newer phone for privacy purposes (to install graphene OS on), I’m a disabled activist on a fixed income so it’s hard to afford stuff like that most of the time but at the same time it’s becoming more and more important to take measures like that for privacy, if anyone is interested in a trade or otherwise has a good idea for how I can get one, please let me know.

            Thank you, that’s a good recommendation. I added my region. What I am really hoping for is that someone will have one they’ve been meaning to get rid of and knowing it will be used for that purpose is hopefully a bonus to someone that might apply to and we can work something out that helps both of us.
