#13A chrome extension would be necessary for something like this to replace Pinboard/Instapaper for me (I see that in the TODO already). But looks good otherwise. The only thing stopping me is the time commitment of hosting another app for personal use.
Why do you want to replace Pinboard/Instapaper? What feature do you miss?

Thanks fo linking bookmark-archiver here. I liked the sound of reminiscence but unfortunately it requires bleeding edge python and tries to integrate the webserver (and many other things that don't need to be). It's a matter of taste I suppose but I couldn't get it working. bookmark-archiver just works on all my systems, old and new.
I personally only support the latest stable release, so I only support 3.7.
Python is extremely backwards-compatible so there's never been any breakages for me, from 3.4 to 3.5 to 3.6 to 3.7.

#17Exciting! I'm still badly in need of a bookmark manager (and hopefully sync-capable) since xmarks shutdown. I'm looking at Shiori, ymarks, and Floccus. How does Reminiscence compare?

#18I would love the ability to bookmark an entire site. Does this allow full spidering?
Re: Show HN: Reminiscence, self-hosted bookmark manager and personal wayback machine
#19I love the idea, but is this a little bit overkill if you just want to mirror your bookmarks? There's several simple spidering tools out there that you could change the User-Agent on in order to get mobile or desktop pages, and then you don't need to maintain or run any servers or special tools. I would export my bookmarks, run a cron job on them with a spider tool, and commit the result to Git.
