Brett Terpstra’s [Markdown Service tools](https://brettterpstra.com/projects/markdown-service-tools/#linkschrometabssafaritabs) can collect markdown links from Safari and Chrome. I have not tried this for a few years. Gathering associated URLs is not that hard- heck copy and paste with some Keyboard Masetro magic will work. But, Hook can also tie files together—can this be done manually ?

Safari is such a tumbleweed-strewn wasteland when it comes to extensions that it’s good to see options appear… even if they cost money when multiple free alternatives live on other browsers.

On the whole, I’d agree with you - except that a lot of apps add their own share extensions to Safari, representing a kind of underground garden of extensions. I have, for example, buttons for Bear, DEVONthink, Pinterest, OneNote, Keep Everything, Zotero and Panic; I have share extensions for Ulysses, SnipNotes, Notes, Notes4Me, Curiota, Things; I have services for a whole bunch of other things, including three separate paste options for Notebooks. Having experimented with many other Mac browsers, I’ve always ended up coming back to Safari, and increasingly, feel that I’m not missing out on anything I could feel green with envy about.
I’ve given up everything to do with Google, I’m afraid, because I no longer trust them enough. I do use Firefox occasionally, but find it more cumbersome than Safari. And I do sometimes use Brave because of its excellent built-in VPN. Opera I tend to avoid because of its new Chinese owners (I may be unnecessarily paranoid - after all, I’m not an Uighur -, but I prefer to be safe than sorry.
Cheers,
Bill

I use many extensions on Chrome but most are disabled till needed for memory and privacy reasons, these 2 related to open-tabs are usually on though:
