You had me at "My bookmarks are ... tabbed".

Please tell me I'm missing something and that there's a way to do this in Chrome so I can access the tags on my phone????

I have about 30,000 unsorted bookmarks.

Yes.

Because I need tagging.

I'm not sure about Chrome, as I use Firefox.

Sadly Firefox does (for some peculiar reason) not give acceess to the tags on the mobile browser.

So I navigate by folder hiearchy on mobile; read > professional > development > android > db for instance.

Mobile Firefox (Fennec) doesn't support tags, but the text descriptions are searchable when entering URLs, so you can key off of those.

Effectively full-text-search tagging.

Oh. TIL. That's... a bit of an unexpected shortcoming I wasn't aware of. Hmm...

(My Chrome session is big enough that I don't quite have the RAM to play with Firefox, which I was coincidentally last playing with just as the WebExtensions update kicked in and broke my UI setup. Welp.)
