Is it open source and self-hostable? At this point I no longer trust these kinds of services since they always seem to be abandoned, suffer from enshittification, or just degrade. I need to know I can migrate easily once it happens.

pinboard.in has been around for quite awhile :)

Pinboard is abandoned. Not just in the sense that no new features have been added in years, but in the sense that existing features are actually broken and are not being fixed, despite still accepting money from customers.

There is Shaarli and Wallabag (archives pages to read later) Both open source and self hostable.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I thought pinboard.in is not longer maintained? "Ask HN: What Happened to Pinboard (Dec '22 edition)?" ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34062802 ) There's also a June, August, November edition.

It still works fine for me including archiving. So either it's very resilient or there is maintenance happening.

He's stated in past threads that whether it works or not for you depends on what machine your account gets assigned to. So it's not resilient or maintenance, some machines are borked and others aren't. Pray you aren't on the borked machine.
