Delicious[1] was delicous, and Pinboard[2] is just there. Not into bookmarks that much except for less than 10 significant websites. I might look at ArchiveBox[3] or something like it to bookmark and take a snapshot. Again, none of them as important as it used to be. 1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delicious_(website) 2. https://pinboard.in 3. https://archivebox.io

I setup Raindrop.io [1] to feed into Archivebox, mostly as an overcomplicated way to automatically submit the page to archive.org [2].

Raindrop is nice since it works in browser and as a phone app - so it truly is a single bookmarking tool. I mostly use it for search purposes, bookmarking things I may want to find again in a few years.

I rarely look at my Archivebox, but it's nice to know it's there with offline copies if I ever want them.

The biggest problem with bookmarks isn't the bookmarking; it's the rediscoverability. Tags and folders aren't even close to solve the problem of surfacing bookmarked links when they're needed. And the only way to fix this, is to have them integrated into search. "You're looking for how to do X? Here's what I found on the internet. Also, you bookmarked these links about this topic, so check them out." That, or a RAG b…

Thanks for the project idea. That sounds amazing. I always forget about very useful bookmarks I have.

I think I would enjoy something like this (or pinboard), but with comments. Sort of a smaller version of Hackernews, where I could see what my friends are bookmarking and then write comments on those links, so we could chat about the content not necessarily with random people of the internet but with your smaller community (or maybe with everyone too, but in a different section).

Maybe someone here knows if anything like this exists already? I've taken a look at some of the options out there, but didn't end up trying them because it seemed like they didn't do anything like this, and were more focused on simply storing bookmarks (and maybe sharing them with upvotes, but nothing for conversation).

What I'd like to see is some kind of "ongoing" or dossier for news. So when an errata or new development happen, even years later, you get a notification and can update your knowledge.

Specifically for things like "future miracle cure for X" or trials. Like "what happened with the Panama Papers"? Then you'd get a full dossier of articles, links, comments etc. It may require some standardized way to link news article together.

I believe that's called reddit.
