## Description
**Cleaning up bookmarks is boring. The Firefox add-on Keep or Delete Bookmarks brings some fun to this task by
allowing you to sort out the bookmarks the "Tinder way".**
The add-on randomly displays one bookmark, including the title, the URL and the bookmark folder. The user has
several options:
1) Keep the bookmark. The bookmark will be added to a whitelist and Keep or Delete Bookmarks will never ask again about
this bookmark.
2) Delete the bookmark. The bookmark will be deleted from your Firefox.
3) Skip the bookmark and defer the decision. Keep or Delete Bookmarks will show you the next bookmark without any
action.
4) Open the bookmark. Maybe you are not sure about the bookmark yet. This options lets you open the bookmark in a new
tab before you make a decision.

### Permissions
Keep or Delete Bookmarks needs several permissions to work properly.
#### mandatory permissions
Keep or Delete Bookmarks does not work without the following permissions:
##### access browser tabs
The permission to access the browser tabs is needed so that Keep or Delete Bookmarks can jump to the already opened
user interface if the user interface is already opened in another tab and you click the button in the browser's toolbar.
##### read and modify bookmarks
You installed Keep or Delete Bookmarks to show and remove bookmarks, so it should be clear why the permission is needed
to read and modify your bookmarks.
#### optional permissions
##### access your data for all sites
The add-on checks the bookmarks by sending a request to the appropriate URLs. This cannot work without the permission
to access these sites. Keep or Delete Bookmarks asks at runtime for this permission if you want to execute this check.
#### silent permissions
Keep or Delete Bookmarks needs some more permissions, but Firefox does not prompt for the following permissions:
##### menus
The menus permission is needed for providing a menu entry in the tools menu to access Keep or Delete Bookmarks's user
interface.
##### storage
The storage permission is needed so that Keep or Delete Bookmarks can remember which bookmarks you want to keep.
## Compatibility
Keep or Delete Bookmarks is a WebExtension and compatible with Firefox Browser 68 and higher (Firefox Browser 109 or
higher is required for the latest version of Keep or Delete Bookmarks).
