Sometimes I come accross a comment that provides really good insight about a topic, and I want to keep it around. The problem is that the save feature on Lemmy/Reddit just creates one massive pile of hundreds of comments. This defeats the point of saving it because when I later encounter the topic that it related to, I'd still have to dig through this massive pile to be able to find it – so the save feature has in fact not made it any more accessible. I feel like someone on the internet must have surely worked out how to catalog these snippets of text in a way that allows you to quickly find the ones relevant to what you're currently doing. Perhaps some sort of tagging/mind map system? What do you use? I have considered Google Keep but my Keep is already a mess as is.

I know it doesn’t help you now, but Apollo used to have a feature where you can save your posts in folders. Used that feature all the time. Maybe one of the Lemmy apps can implement something similar.
