How do people organize their reading? Perennially frustrated by this. I want one system that lets me trivially add books, papers, webpages, etc, re-organize very easily, search & filter. What works for you?

It’s like meta note-taking across reading. Your subconscious has a better sense of what you need to read, but your awareness needs some prosthetic help to optimally form the long-term memories the effort deserves
Do you have a single place where you store a big list of books/papers seen that might be worth reading someday? Essentially, an anti-library...

I store these using github issues. The fact that they appear as issues keep me reminded that i need to get back at them. No rush. But github is pretty good at organizing

In Polar you can flag articles as priority. You can have any arbitrary sort so you could just flag articles that you currently want to read but still maintain the queue. It also supports 'archive' so that if you' get done something it's no longer clutters the main view.
