The problem is that there is no time in my life when I specifically think to read bookmarks. Whenever I have downtime there's 20 other things I can do, and I usually just revert to the one that requires no thought (YouTube). I'd have to either incorporate reading bookmarks into my routine, or set myself a calendar notification.

Just skimming through it will be more than enough

~~I remember reading an advice about this on https://fs.blog/ but forgot which article it was~~

The third component of reading is learning when to quit a book.

Good writing is effortless reading. Bad writing, on the other hand, feels like a chore. Good writing is felt instantly. It is packed with ideas and insight and has a certain momentum that compels you to keep reading.

Quitting is not as easy as it seems. If you were taught to finish what you started, that invisible rule is still with you today and might prevent you from quitting bad writing.

When it comes to reading, you don’t need to finish what you start. You can quit. Once you realize that you can quit without guilt, everything changes.

Skim a lot of books. Read a few. Immediately re-read the best ones twice.

All the time you spend reading something bad comes at the expense of reading something good. Reading a great book twice is better than reading ten average ones.

It's largely about books, but I'd argue it applies to web pages
