Would like to know how the tech community deals with bookmarks and links. They might just be read-later entries that you want to visit later on. Or could the links you have been collecting be a valuable resource? How would you share them?

#3I built my own service and client as a hobby project to scrape and categorise articles for myself. I realised throughout the project though what a monumental pain scraping article content reliably is and have have spent less time on it lately, I still dogfood it however.

#5Not really. Long-form things that I want to read later, I put into Pocket [0]. Everything else I don't bookmark, I can just search for it later, or it's lost forever like tears in rain.

#6i think that bookmarks will solve search. see my thoughts here: https://www.pythondashboard.com/articles/2020-01-23-search.h...
apologies for site not being done yet and article not fully fleshed out. but the topic has come back many times now that i think i needed to share what i thought about it.
to answer your question: we need to share and distribute our bookmarks in GitHub. it works for developers because our search queries are keyword-based.
pocket, pinboard.in, etc. don't work because they feel like "todo" lists.

#7You could just bookmark everything, and use tags for specific categories.
Maybe add a 'ril' tag for every thing you want to read later, no tags for generic queue of things to look at, 'archive' for things you want to keep, etc.

#8If the link has any value then I will put them in an internal wiki along with the details on why they are interesting.
This makes them easy to find again at any later time due to mediawiki's excellent built-in search facilities.

#9I use Notion for this kind of stuff. Free, crossplatform and easy to operate

#10I use a self-hosted wallabag for long-form articles that I want to get back to or are part of a particular string of research and it ensures I can always read it even if it disappears.
Bookmark wise I mostly just use the standard bookmark manager. I have considered a self-hosted syncing mechanism but I only have a few hundred bookmarks, it is stuff I use.
