Hey there, thanks for posting this! One thing I've noticed it that it by starting at the top it imports recent bookmarks first. This means that your oldest bookmarks will be shown first. You can fix this by reversing the order of the json file (last line):

done < <(jq -c '. | reverse | .[]' < $FILE)

@appel Thanks for the tip. Updated.

Sure thing, thanks again for publishing this gist, I appreciate it.

No problem and thanks
