Call me old-fashioned, but I use Cmd-D to save bookmarks, and either the search bar or the bookmark library to organize/look through them. When I decide I want to blow away my operating system, I export my bookmarks and import them at the new incarnation.

I just started using this because my iPhone refuses to sync Chrome Bookmarks and decided I needed another solution.
It's not bad, but I haven't used it for long. I like that it finds dupes and has thumbnails like a news reader. I used yt-download to extract my YouTube favorites and playlists video urls into a .csv file and loaded those in as well, and it did the right thing. So we'll see.

#63https://diigo.com It's less simple than Delicious used to be, but it scratched the itch for a while for me. I barely ever bookmark anything these days. When Delicious was sold I stopped using it, and realised I didn't miss bookmarking and hardly ever read any of my bookmarks anyway. Excessive bookmarking seems like FOMO to me, I try to avoid it and embrace a more Zen-like attitude :)
I like diigo's web highlighting feature a lot.

#64Well... Shaarli. Dead simple to install, no fuss. https://github.com/shaarli/Shaarli I have been using it for the past 15 years with great satisfaction.
I expected this to be higher up. I used pinboard for years, but finally decided it's not worth the money. Self-hosting this requires very little resources and knowledge. Super happy with it, use it daily.

#65If you would like to keep all your data private, self hosting is a good option. - LinkAce ( https://www.linkace.org ) - Linkding ( https://github.com/sissbruecker/linkding ) - Wallabag ( https://github.com/wallabag/wallabag ) - Buku ( https://github.com/jarun/Buku ) - Linkwarden ( https://github.com/Daniel31x13/link-warden )
That's the exact opposite of being a spiritual successor to Delicious.
It wasn't about hoarding personal data and keeping it secret. It was about sharing it publicly, like Twitter, and people following each other based on either personal connection or just a shared interest graph.

#66If you are on the Mac, give my app Anybox a try.
It’s not a website but a native app for macOS and iOS. But the fact that it’s not a website allows many deep integrations with macOS.

The problem is link rot and searching contents for me

#68Earlier quoted context omitted.
Pinboard was nice and simple once, but nowadays doesn't seem to be maintained and is broken in many ways. I've been trying to export my archive backup for almost a year without success.
It feels more "complete" than "unmaintained" to me. It's pretty basic in what it does, but it does that well. I haven't noticed any bugs as such - what did you find that's actually broken?
The tweet search function has been broken for a few years (yes I reported it).

#69I use https://histre.com/, which also has a Hacker News integration.

#70I’m building Scriffer.com as a platform to save all your thoughts on internet content. You can highlight and share pages and they’re all saved for later.
I’m thinking of adding user profiles to be able to follow people and see what they’re reading and noting too.
I’m not sure if it’s entirely a spiritual successor as I’m too young to have used del.icio.us sadly.
