This looks slick. Because archive.org is getting a little problematic by not allowing more sites to be archived, decentralized archiving is becoming more important. I have been using archive box on my server. It does not have the collaboration features, but that is what my fediverse instances and other collaboration tools provide.

> Because archive.org is getting a little problematic by not allowing more sites to be archived I haven't heard anything about this, could you elaborate or link to some article?

I’ve heard no such claim. Interested in an offices statement as well

Looks really clean. A few questions: - It’s not clear if this saves highlight in Ng and annotations (notes about the highlights). More than saving a bookmark we think about a sentence that can be searchable. - Is there any plan to save the entire webpage as text (to maintain the annotations in it) in addition to pdf and screenshot? One product I am overly dependant on is Diigo - I would love a replacement even if it…

Saving webpages as text was actually something we wanted to do before launch but just went for the “MVP” for now. So yeah we’re definitely bringing more archive formats.

Great to hear, will keep an eye out for it. I take the saved pages and pull them through my workflow via API.

I'll definitely give it a short this weekend. Are there any plans to support different authentication methods? Like LDAP, OAuth2 etc? I'm using linkding at the moment https://github.com/sissbruecker/linkding which also has a browser addon, the only missing thing is some form central user auth but we're using it as it is.

Linkding does support header auth if your provider supports that (I run authelia backed by ldap).

Thanks for pointing that out. I'm already using authelia backed by ldap, it'll be an easy setup. I might've to figure how to merge the existing users and their data though.

Does this have the capability of setting an option to periodically check the page for updates and save a revision? My ideal bookmark/page archiver would have this workflow: 1) Find a page I like or find valuable for whatever reason, so I click on a browser addon button. 2) A little dialog would then show up from the button, allowing me to set the following 2a) Add tags, as well as offer suggested tags I could add or…

Other things that come to mind as complications. Saving the page as presented in my current browser session can be vastly different vs a non-logged in guest with no changes from browser addons. Many websites require browser addons to be tolerable. Reddit likes to hide the end of comment chains to artificially inflate their fucking click metrics, and addons are required to load those comments inline. Saving pages with…

I suggest trying out HamsterBase (HamsterBase is not open source).

1. It supports direct binding with SingleFile, enabling one-click web page saving. Because it saves in the browser, all other plugins will take effect.

2. It provides an open-source plugin https://github.com/hamsterbase/hamsterbase-highlighter, allowing you to annotate directly in the browser, and it automatically saves a snapshot of the web page when you annotate. When you visit the page again, it automatically displays the previous snapshots.

3. All data is stored on your local device, with both a docker version and a desktop version available. Different versions support P2P synchronization.

4. Provide full-text search function, which can search all the articles on the webpage.

Amazing. Collaborative bookmark management needed to happen.

Imagine deciding you want to learn a new skill and not having to start from square one learning the lay of the land around your newly chosen subculture but rather it's already been curated for you and you can hit the ground running with great links to various assets and communities like software tools, forums, discords and video tutorials. I love the archiving functionality too.

Your website looks great and all the information I needed was right there. Concise, informative and neat.

I think the real value here is a tool that will allow people of all kinds to aggregate relevant content and help onboard people to the communities they know, live and love.

I feel like a freemium model would allow this tool to reach a massive scale as I see awesome utility in it but I don't expect normal people would self host or pay for it even if it cost 10 cents. It's just too much inertia.

I feel so dirty telling you how to charge for your own product.

Pagerank and SEO killed search. What you have here sounds a hell of a lot better.

Awesome work mate! I'm aways up for a chat.

That looks like a web app, not an actual browser bookmark sync. Apples and oranges. There is a value in using native browser bookmarks and syncing them cross browsers/OS's.

>There is a value in using native browser bookmarks and syncing them cross browsers/OS's. Don't most browsers do this automatically WITHOUT a third party app? Firefox and Chrome both sync bookmarks across devices. What is the usecase for a third party bookmark syncer in that case? Shiori acts both as an archiver as well as bookmark saver. My bookmarks are ...cluttered otherwise. I have a OneTab page with over 37000 '…

They don't natively sync cross-browsers i.e. chrome/brave/firefox.

Safari would be a welcome addition but alas.

eeeeh. Shiori looks like it'd work infinitely better compared to floccus. It has an extension, tags, and everything is stored in a central repository you can visit from web (or server itself) any time you want. It also archives your bookmarks. It has been working flawlessly for me for a couple of years now. https://github.com/go-shiori

I've been self-hosting and using Shiori for couple years now. Originally it was my replacement for pocket. It’s the closest thing I found to Pocket. Not only for read-it-later, but also as my archiving tool. My only issue with Shiori is that I have not been able to find a working browser extension or get the official Shiori extensions to work. So adding URLs is a manual process. So I only use it archive dev and longf…

Really? The official extension works fine for me. What issue are you running into?

I couldn't get the extension working on any chromium based browser. (or chrome or edge either)

Using the chrome extension - I get an error "json: cannot unmarshal bool into Go struct field .remember of type int" when attempting to login to my local Shiori server.

The extension - https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/shiori-create-book...

Looking at the reviews on that extension,that seems to be the common complaint.
