The right first click depends on what you already know
It is easy to open a broad feed because it feels safer, but a better session starts by naming the job: discovery, comparison, or final checking. Each job needs a different page.
I do not know what I want yet
Use a flexible category such as shirts, shoes, or accessories. Keep the session exploratory and do not save too many early options.
I know the category but not the exact item
Use a direct category route and compare similar listings. This is where a spreadsheet-style guide saves the most time.
I already have two or three options
Stop browsing and move into QC. Extra links at this stage often make the decision harder instead of better.
First-session advice
Pick one category, set a small time limit, and write down why each saved option is still alive. If you cannot explain why it belongs on the shortlist, it probably should not be there.
