Let’s talk about the Bookmark feature on Medial. It’s one of the most useful and most useless features on the app—depending on how you use it. Let me explain. People on Medial (and elsewhere) generously share articles, tools, frameworks, videos—goldmines of value. And what do most of us do? We hit Bookmark. Again. And again. And again. We pile up posts thinking “I’ll get back to this later.” But we don’t. We never revisit them. And that’s where the problem lies. The Bookmark feature isn’t your digital junk drawer. It’s supposed to be a library of resources that you return to, read, watch, apply, and learn from. If you’re not doing that, then honestly—those bookmarks are just clutter. Until Medial develops a better way to organize bookmarks—like letting us create custom lists, rename folders, or group related posts—we need to self-regulate. Keep your bookmarks lean. Intentional. Here’s something I’ve started doing, and I suggest you try it too: 📌 The moment you bookmark a post, pause. 📌 Go to your bookmarks tab. 📌 Pick one post you haven’t fully consumed. 📌 Read it. Watch it. Apply it. 📌 No time? Schedule it. If you won’t? Remove it. Don’t let your bookmarks become a digital graveyard of missed opportunities. Use them with intention—or not at all.
