Yeah, there’s always a trend (like syncing everything and storing everything in a cloud), but fortunately there’s also always less known alternatives for the “weird” people :D

Bmm may be a viable option: https://github.com/dhth/bmm
I’m just not sure it can handle folders, but you could use tags as folder names to replicate this behavior ;)
I’ve been using Arch for over 15 years, and honestly, I never check the news before updating. Once in a while, I’ll get an error — maybe once a year — and the fix is always just running a quick command I find on the Arch site or the package page. Takes seconds, no drama.
I’ve only managed to break my system twice, and both times were 100% my fault. Even then, recovery was easy: just chroot in and run one command.
As for updates, doing them regularly (daily, weekly, or monthly) is recommended. No need to go crazy with updates. Too frequent updates are actually discouraged. Arch is a rolling release, so your packages and dependencies get updated together — meaning things don’t randomly break. Skipping updates won’t nuke your system either, and if something ever goes sideways, you can just downgrade and be back up in no time.
Welcome :) The myth that “Arch isn’t user-friendly” will probably never die — and neither will “Arch is unstable.” I’m honestly relieved you didn’t dare push the door to join us 😏
If you ever switch machines, you can check how Arch is supported on tons of laptops here.
There’s actually dedicated tools for this specific need like bmm and buku. Browser-agnostic bookmark managers are very nice for different purposes like multi browsers use. The idea is not to use browsers offline but to manage bookmarks outside of the browser as mentioned by OP.
Comparing to other tools they have the advantage to be dedicated to bookmark management, meaning they offer all features inherent to such task.
