How to export bookmarks from various browsers & services

Bookmarks are usually exported/imported in a special HTML file format called a “Netscape Bookmarks file“. Even though “Netscape” is no more, the bookmark format they created has lingered around and is now just a relic of a bygone era. However, it is still the standard format for bookmarks export supported by most browsers.

Clipd.io also uses this format to import/export bookmarks in its bookmark manager.

Here are simple instructions or links to straight forward guides explaining the process:
