Out of curiosity, why has a replacement for this service not been created? I don't use the product myself but love the developers blog.
I can't get his blog to load, seems to be a certificate expiry. https://blog.pinboard.in/

#42I'd love an alternative but none of the suggestions integrate directly with IFTTT[1] which I use extensively to stuff things into pinboard. Tens of thousands of things over the years.
(I also requested my archive a couple of weeks back with no result. It's disheartening.)
[1] It's possible that some of them could be integrated via the Webhook functionality but eh.

raindrop.io It had a few hiccups 2 years back, but it's been going great. Been using it fir 2 years and it's really good. My choices were raindrop or pinboard and went with raindrop due to native apps ans open source client.
Just signed up to Raindrop free account, very impressed. This is a strong web app, I'm instantly a fan. Free plan is solid.
Used Pinboard years ago then stopped. Raindrop is leaps ahead in design and function.

#46I don't use pinboard but I have seen enough posts on HN now complaining about lack of response from Pinboard to paying users. I know it is run by 1 person and he clearly doesn't care. Try and move on if you can.

#48This is my first time hearing about this website. Surprising to see the founder is American but the top level domain for pinboard is Indian, any particular reason he chose .in ?

it's very funny to me that the post below this at the time mentions that you'll be off twitter for the year
