Started with the $11 forever plan but then actually started paying for archive option on pinboard just in case.
Link rot is a bit of problem I think about 30% are dead.
I trust pinboard more than pretty much any VC backed company.
Only problem is the bus factor of 1.

Honest question, not meant to be rude, but what value do you get from having created 20k bookmarks?

> - Browser integrations for every browser worth mentioning I'm missing the ability to sync with a browser's built-in bookmarks.
that's probably true, but I can't say for sure: I purged all of my local browser bookmarks years ago. Pinboard is ground truth for me for specific links. Feedly has become my repository of bookmarks-of-sites-i-like-to-read-in-general.
The above mentioned floccus/nextcloud looked promising but then they mentioned they can't sync different browsers from the same root. Somehow Xmarks doesn't have that problem. I am still looking for comparable replacement. Bookmarks are a way for immediate direct access to things I don't remember than a search tool for me. For search I can just google.

Definitely. Reasonably priced, I'm the customer, and it works with Android and Firefox, which are my everyday tools.
Had an account for a while, just now really starting using it. How do you use it with Android and Firefox? The official plugin says it doesn't work with Firefox Quantum.

As in I am doing a research on some topic and I already have a whole bunch of links nicely tagged and ready to go.
The problem is that you do not know which 1% are going to be useful again.

Why can't it be ground truth and sync to browsers' bookmarks? - I refuse to use anything that is not integrated with the browser bookmarks. All these numerous web "bookmarks" are just silly.

It would be nice to have a Firefox addon that would automatically submit your bookmark links for archival at major link archival services..
edit: Looks like at least one such addon exist: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/archiveror/
