Pages you keep, one menu item to add and one key to find; and every file you downloaded.

Bookmarks#

Bookmarks › Add This Page bookmarks the page. With several tabs picked, they go into a new folder together. It has no key unless you give it one in Settings › Shortcuts: ⌘D keeps the tab in the sidebar, as in Arc.

⌥⌘B opens your bookmarks in the field, one folder at a time. Search finds anything in the folder you are in and below; esc goes up a folder. The folder menu at the field’s end also has Recently Added: every bookmark, newest first, by day.

⌘K moves a bookmark to another folder or opens a whole folder in tabs. The Bookmarks menu lists them too, the bookmarks bar shows them above the page, and they are found in Spotlight.

Downloads#

The downloads button is always at the foot of the sidebar. With tabs across the top, it appears at the end of the tab bar, or of the address bar, once something downloads. It shows each download’s progress. ⇧⌘J lists your downloads in the field.
