Bookmark Dupes by Martin Väth
Review by LS
Rated 2 out of 5
by LS, 4 years agoWhen I used the "select a folder" button, nothing happened. After trying several times, I just pressed the general "Dupes" button. Then I had to manually deselect many bookmarks that I wanted to keep, after using the "mark all but oldest in each group."
All seemed well... I walked away, as it was going to take a while to delete my over 4,000 dupes. I came back only 10 minutes later to see that the app crashed after deleting only 222. It said something like... some function was pending.
I restarted my browser, closed other programs and I set it up again. It crashed again before 200 deletions. What a waste of time.
The only reason, I'm not giving it one star is because the buttons let you custom search your marks to delete. The extension "Bookmarks Organizer" is the worst, where you have to delete each bookmark manually, and sometimes it doesn't give a great description of the path, so I ended up deleting useful marks. This one is better than that one.
My search for a good bookmark extension continues. Why are there so many good reviews in the past year? Deceptive.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18701784, 2 months agoAn sich eine Spitzen-Erweiterung. Allerdings nach ca. 8 Stunden nur 274 von 89911 duplizierten Lesezeichen entfernt. Alle sonstigen Erweiterungen extra vorher deaktiviert.

posted 2 months agoWie schon mehrmals geschrieben ist die normale Geschwindigkeit beim Löschen mehrere hundert/tausend Lesezeichen pro Sekunde - eigentlich nicht merkbar. Bis jetzt habe ich noch kein bei mir reproduzierbares Beispiel von deutlich langsamerem Verhalten gefunden. Wenn Du technisch genügend Erfahrung hast, kannst Du mal versuchen, die Lesezeichen als Datei zu exportieren und die alte Firefox-Konfiguration komplett zu löschen (d.h. die zugehörigen Dateien mal komplett verschieben) und dann im jungfräulichen Firefox nur diese Erweiterung und Lesezeichendatei zu benutzen um zu testen, ob es wirklich an der Erweiterung liegt (und auf diese Art zumindest eine Lesezeichendatei ohne Duplikate zu erhalten). - Rated 5 out of 5by anselmoarantes, 3 months ago

posted 4 months agoThe normal deletion speed is some hundred bookmarks per seconds. If it is considerably slower then very likely the cause is some bad configuration. An example might be another bookmark related addon is installed which slows down the process.- Rated 5 out of 5by Michael, 5 months ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by SusilaGuy, 5 months agoFantastic! Just what I needed. Reduced my 13,000+ bookmarks to about 3500 and afterward, I was able to delete over 700 empty folders.
I loved that I could choose to retain the most current of each group of duplicates. Thank you. <3
