What's a really niche tool you use that you can't live without?
Instead of archiving collections of images in tar or zip files, img2pdf losslessly packs images into PDF files. This makes them really, really easy to browse without unpacking or archive-mounting them.

The best datahoarding hint that changed my live: use RAR archives (or any other archive format, really)
archivemount can mount into the filesystem any archive format that libarchive supports, which is several: zip, rar, tar, cpio, ISO9660, 7-Zip, ar, lha/lzh, Microsoft CAB, mtree, pax, shar, WARC, xar.

Container for archiving many small files
For bundling, my main constraint is that archivemount or gio mount archive:// can seek within the archive: so tar and zip are fine, but tar.gz is not. Squashfs also works well.

Ask HN: Why are people publishing FAQs/articles on Medium instead of Gist?
I use Obsidian and want to incorporate it in with my Gist usage. Found this which might be helpful: https://github.com/defunkt/gist
P.S. My biggest peeve with Gist is the missing dark mode :(. Otherwise, I find that the ability to use Markdown and embedded images in my gist's actually covers most of my documenting/blogging use case. Obsidian will hopefully address the dark mode issue.
