I'm patching servers, and the site has such a complex environment that it always takes me a few days to figure out how to run it again. It'll be back.

EDIT: it was never gone, you doofuses are clicking on www.del.icio.us or something. Everybody in this thread owes me a beer.

While I'm enjoying everyone falling over themselves in this thread the really amusing part is all the people confused this isn't loading because they use Chrome, which hides the www that shouldn't be there in the URL. Thanks Google for the entertainment!

Seems like the mobile version of Firefox does the same thing.

I was both a fan of del.icio.us (yahoo times) and later pinboard.in, but I'm more and more loosing faith and trust in the guy who operates it. No mobile apps (all third party, relatively unreliable, to one that I've used disappeared from the store overnight). Sometimes slow or down and no status page. Twitter account is being used for political messages on US politics (no objection against the expression of opinion -…

I fixed the Chrome plugin some months ago, take another look.

Thank you for your grumpy business :-)

Your experience mirrors my own. While I had hopes that pinboard would stay stable, perhaps even slowly add features over time I’ve seen the opposite. The lack of status page has left me thinking that perhaps I should ping the maintainer to ask if some downtime is planned. Alas their twitter account doesn’t appear to be business related.

I’m on the lookout for a replacement but not many competitors can match the open data format.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Whois lists Ceglowski Maciej as the tech contact, and he is the owner of Pinboard. It doesn't explain why he would let it point to a vanilla Apache install and not point it at something useful

For anyone else wondering why that name might sound familiar. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maciej_Ceg%C5%82owski

Oh I missed that brawl:

Having had the concerns and experienced the issues described, I eventually built a clone of Pinboard and now run it privately. Added Telegram bot and iOS shortcuts for dumping links, adjusted tag system for my needs, and so on. Having control over your bookmark archive feels great, and then you can transform it into some kind of a knowledge management system like Zettelkasten. In any case I don’t see how the author is going to work on Pinboard being busy as he is with other issues.

Just curious. Is there a reason to not redirect the www. to the non-www. ?

Is it common for sub-domains to have sub-sub-domains?
