New bookmarks always marked as duplicates when adding
When I add any new bookmark to nb, I receive this warning and have to confirm that it is not a duplicate: <n> bookmarks for this URL exist in this folder (screenshot below). I'm a new user of nb with a very basic configuration. I have gone through the documentation fairly closely, believe I am using the tool as intended, and have not found any settings that would cause this to happen or similar bug reports :( so am not sure why this happens.
I'm happy to provide any other details about my setup/config if that's helpful.
Hi @axelav, thanks for the report. Can you share the output of the following command?
uname -a; bash --version; grep --version; rg --version
Sure thing @xwmx - here's what that spits out:

Thank you for having a look at this issue :)
Hi @axelav, so far I've been unable to reproduce the issue. I don't have an M1 mac, so that might be a factor. The Bash version being used is 3.2 which comes with macOS, while the current version is Bash 5, and that might also be a factor. It works on Bash 3.2 on my intel mac, but maybe there's a difference on the M1 macs.
I recommend trying to update Bash and see whether it works. If you have homebrew, you can update Bash with brew install bash. If you can, please let me know whether updating Bash resolves the issue.
Another update: I had someone try it on Apple Silicon with Bash 3.2 and none of the recommended dependencies, and it worked normally for the couple bookmarks they tried.
I looked at the code and don't see anything that seems like it could be causing it yet. I still recommend updating Bash with brew install bash and seeing whether that helps at all. I'll look into this further.
Thanks @xwmx. I did try installing bash 5.2 but it didn't change anything. I'll take a look through the dependencies and possibly try a clean install on my machine as well. It sounds like something specific to my set up, but again thank you for taking the time to look at this.
