I have settled on https://readeck.org/ it's absolutely brilliant. It supports postgres and a service with systemd. omnom looks promising, will keep an eye on it.

I encourage you to check out my app ;) Demo for Showcase: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehGolVAHm8U App Store link: https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/showcase-co/id6740991352?platf...

Your app looks really and the website is also cool but Readeck and Omnom are both selfhosted bookmark managers. A cool app is good to have but not a requirement.

Use readeck, too. It’s exactly what I need, the only feature I miss is not being able to add arbitrary comments to text passages.

I am happy user of https://historio.us/

Does this kind of service really need a subscription? Immediate turn off.

I am getting used to paying for the services I need. To me at least it makes sense to be paying for something being maintained.

It's not only open source, it is free software. Take a look at https://github.com/asciimoo/omnom - suggestions/contributions are appreciated =)

That looks like a pretty heavy-weight solution, with a lot of complexity, and I don't mean that as a criticism at all. I'm not a 'go' developer myself. I've always wanted a pure JS solution (as a browser extension, maximum of 200 lines of code) that can capture the content of a web page (doing a virtual scroll to the bottom, to capture the whole page). Since there's no perfect way to translate HTML to PDF, my idea ha…

I recently released a Chrome extension that converts webpages to PDF. It's free, but you need to register to get a key. Unfortunately, this solution isn't client-side JavaScript; I'm using an API underneath. To be honest, I mainly created it to promote the API, but if it's useful for people, I might develop it further. Perhaps it could be useful to you in some way. I don't know your requirements, but maybe with this base in the form of this extension, it wouldn't be difficult to add something that meets your expectations, let me know. However, if you want to export a PDF from Ahrefs, for example, I'm afraid that might not be possible; currently, only basic authentication is supported. Unless maybe I could add an option like in my API to pass JavaScript code, but I also doubt that would work because Ahrefs probably has some bot protection.
