> The behavior differs depending on the browser we import from but overall it seems we are not affected.

>    for Chrome we don't import date created only url and title
>        we use current time & import history so higlights will show up.
>    for Edge we try to import date created and also import browsing history so everything should work fine
>    for Safari we only import bookmarks no history so no highlights will show up

> This is true for Windows as well (where it probably matters most).
> So we might get more bookmark highlights then we actually want from Chrome because using current date + importing visits means all bookmarks are potential candidates.
> Not sure if it's something we necessarily want to fix/change. Leaving this open for comments.

> Some other things noticed:

>    no icons until you visit the website but we do fetch screenshots.
>    there is no description until you visit the websites

Bug is invalid we actually get bookmarks, except for Safari. Confirmed this with abenson.
