I use smashing. It isn’t super active but there are still a lot of extensions for it and it is super configurable, especially if you know a little ruby and coffees script. I’ve written some of my own for tracking my city’s bus.

They are pictures of my dog and YES THEY DO! :) I mean, it is 25 years of my computing history there…

I have started doing something completely different than using bookmarks. I set up yacy on a personal, internal server at my home, which I can access from all my devices, since they are always on my wireguard vpn.

Yacy is actually a distributed search engine, but I run in ‘Robinson mode’ as a private peer, to keep it isolated, as I just want a personal search of only sites I have indexed.

Anytime I come across something of interest, I index it with yacy, using a a depth of 0 (since I only want to index that one page, not the whole site). This way, I can just go to my search site, and search for something, and anything related that I’ve indexed before pops up. I found this works way better than trying to manage bookmarks with descriptions and tags.

Also, yacy will keep a cache of the content which is great if the site ever goes offline or changes.

If I need to browse, I can go use yacy’s admin tools to see all the urls I have indexed.

I have been using this for several months and I am using this way more than I ever used my bookmarks.

Mid 90s, my ftp server with music and warez over dial-up that wasn’t always online!

My biggest issue with Nextcloud is there is no LTS version. Employees do NOT like things constantly changing, and Nextcloud has some pretty major changes every 4-6 months. As an admin you really have to keep up to date, or you run into trouble, not just with security, but with trying to upgrade later, as you can’t upgrade across major versions.

In my opinion, a 2-3 year supported LTS version would make Nextcloud way more attractive to hosting in stable environments.
