Yeah, I bookmark stuff, but just in my browser. No apps or extensions — keeping it simple.

I do the same with Firefox native bookmarks because they auto+sync across devices. But to find/organize I use the add-on Bookmark Search 2 Plus which is great.

Yes, heavily.

I use Firefox and so use an extension called Floccus[0] to sync my bookmarks via my own Nextcloud instance.

I also use a self hosted instance of Wallabag[1] to store pages that I bookmark for reading later (as opposed to bookmarking as a utility) so that I never have it happen that the article/blog/etc has disappeared when I finally get to reading it.

Can't say I know, or care, if bookmarking is fashionable. It works well for me, and with this setup I am in control of my links.

In social bookmarking delicious was the perfect platform, pinboard is the spiritual sucessor but apparently it has not the same technical support it used to have https://notes.kateva.org/2024/09/the-end-times-have-come-for...

Tired of relying on other people's servers I'm moving links from google keep and browser to linkding https://github.com/sissbruecker/linkding

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Let me know if there's ever a tool to search HN limited to discussions I've interacted with in some way eg. submission/favorite/comment (public) or upvote. My interactions disappear quickly and are no help when trying to find that one relevant discussion to link.

Sorry for causing some confusion here; I understand I can search using Algolia's author: keyword within my own comments. I want to limit my searches to all comments by anyone within discussions that were interesting to me in any way.

That would be useful. I assume the feature doesn’t exist. You could ask for it, or maybe it’s possible to develop an external search site or tool that can do that.
