Ask HN: What Happened to Pinboard (November '22 edition)

14 pointsby 3y ago
2 comments
The pinboard threads have been petering out. However for me a month ago my archives finally started working again. Maybe Maciej is actually somewhat maintaining the service? Has anyone else seen some improvement? Sadly I still am unable to download the archive of my cached pages though.

I've also compiled a list of many of the alternatives that have been mentioned on HN in the past: -TinyGem -Buku (FOSS) -GGather -Diigo -historio.us -espial (FOSS) -BrainTool -Larder -Are.na -ArchiveBox (FOSS)

If anyone's had a good experience with an alternative please vouch for it as many pinboard users are looking for a new home.

I've used buku for years now. It stores everything in a simple db that can be version controlled and exported to json. I sync across multiple machines, but usually only care about bookmarks on my desktops. I search it through FZF and add new items at the command line. It's a very simple, very reliable tool that's faster than anything out there.

The biggest alternative is raindrop.io?

raindrop.io Global Rank #21,503 Total Visits 2.5M (according to SimilarWeb)

diigo.com Global Rank #61,731 Total Visits 968.5K

pinboard.in Global Rank #130,249 Total Visits 499.7K

historio.us Global Rank #2,700,314 Total Visits 9.2K

Bookmark OS (bookmarkos.com) is another one I tried:

bookmarkos.com Global Rank #323,703 Total Visits 113.7K

Also Instapaper/Pocket should be mentioned as alternatives I think.
