Summary

When you're browsing and come across something you'd like to revisit later you have a few options: keeping the tab open, bookmarks, copying the url to notion/obsidian etc.

Faros is an extension designed to make revisiting the easiest possible. You save both the URL and a highlighted snippet - to act as a tagline - from the page. So you can: ➣ remember better what the page is about ➣ search by text ➣ get back to exactly where you were in text - no need to scroll

They're also presented as a scrollable feed with most recent saves first - so you can: ➣ remind yourself what you saved recently ➣ organise your saves with tags later

Moreover, you can copy a link to your highlight and share it, or paste into Notion, Obsidian, etc.
