As others already have mentioned, there are actual bookmarks in Twitter, that is not the "like" button (click the share button in the Android app, for example)

Maybe, but that feature is pretty new and it doesn't even show up on the Desktop site. I've never even heard of it until now. I've been using the "like" Button for bookmarks since forever. Those are my bookmarks.

You can access your bookmarks on the desktop by going to http://mobile.twitter.com/i/bookmarks, but it really doesn't make sense to me that they're not integrated into the non-mobile page. I often bookmark things because I want to read them a) later or b) on a bigger screen. Currently, only the first use case is supported by Twitter.

I don't blame you. Bookmarks is about as buried as lists are, but at least lists show up as an option on desktop mode.

In the past the Twitter “Like” feature had a star instad of a heart and was called “favorite”
