Found a trick to track seasonal anime without using any apps

I kept losing track of what was airing each season because I don't use any of those tracking apps. So last month I set up a simple calendar reminder on my phone for every Saturday at noon to check the seasonal chart on MyAnimeList. It takes me about 10 minutes to scroll through and note down the 3 or 4 shows that look interesting. That simple reminder has saved me from missing episode releases and having to binge catch up later. Has anyone else found a low-tech method that works better than the fancy tracking sites?

Read an article saying most people just use their browser bookmarks for this.

@elliotm57 That "just use bookmarks" idea works fine for a handful of sites, but it gets messy fast once you start collecting more than fifty or so. I found that out the hard way when I lost a whole folder of saved articles during a browser crash.

Jumped straight into the deep end with bookmarks once, ended up with 200+ links organized by vibes instead of seasons lol. Spent more time clicking through random tabs than actually watching anything. The calendar trick sounds solid though, at least you're not digging through a graveyard of saved episodes from 2018 like I am now.
