If it is important and you don't need it right now, use a bookmark and close that tab. Bookmarks have been around for literal decades now in browsers.

In my experience the bookmark button is essentially the, 'This is interesting and I'll check this out later but never really will' button.

Now, I have a thousand unsorted bookmarks that I am ashamed to look at and half of them are decade old dead links.

Everyone is different, though. A sane person could categorize different bookmarks into relevant sub folders and review/clean them out monthly.

I'm not that person.

There should be a 404 checker built into bookmarks. Once a year run a quick scan.
