Okay, I gotta know:

I use AO3 bookmarks to save my favorite fics--fics I want to reread, fics I think people who like my fic would also like, fics I recommend, etc.

I use the Mark for Later function to mark fics I want to read later.

And when I see someone else's bookmarks, I assume that they are saying "This fic is fantastic! You should read it!"

But apparently people use the bookmarks for things they want to read later? So they may not actually be recommending the fic in their bookmarks?
