muxile VS share-links

I have plenty of ultra niche projects and I never regretted working on any of them. On the contrary - i use them daily and it brings me much joy. Here are three:

https://github.com/bjesus/muxile lets me continue my tmux session on the phone, bridging the two over WebSockets. How many people use tmux extensively AND want to continue on the phone? Not much i guess...

https://github.com/bjesus/callibella is my way to sync my personal calendar to my work calendar without revealing my personal entries. It's very useful for me but less needed if your personal calendar is Google because i heard they have their own integration.

https://github.com/bjesus/air is my AwesomeWM based Interface to my PostmarketOS Kobo e-reader. Linux on your e-reader isn't a huge market share to begin with...

Love mosh, back when the connection was bad I had it aliased to ssh. Somewhat relevant: if you actually a need to take your shell mobile, check out my tmux plugin that allows you to quickly transfer your tmux session to your phone without any app, using websockets and a QR code: https://github.com/bjesus/muxile

> A proposal, dear reader: Create a list of bookmarks linking to websites you find interesting, and publish it for the world to see. You decide what constitutes “interesting”.

That's exactly what I did with share-links : It's a tool that allow you to easily store and share links of things you like on the web.

Here's the repo where you can find more info (see the file DEPLOY.md if you want to launch an instance on the web): https://gitlab.com/sodimel/share-links

And here's my own instance, whith over... 4000 links: https://links.l3m.in/

Here's a (my own) lightweight alternative, built using django & no javascript: https://gitlab.com/sodimel/share-links

It allows you to store links (title & language of the page, a pdf of the page, assign tags, to include them in collections), it has a very simple (moderated) comment system, a lightweight ui (remember: no js), multi-accounts (permissions), translations, some rudimentary stats and some other things (access a random page!).

See my own instance for an example with thousands of links: https://links.l3m.in/

I don't think I have ADHD but I created a shaarli clone (https://gitlab.com/sodimel/share-links/) in order to be able to store, share and retrieve all the interesting link (the act of sharing interesting links happens more frequently now that I have a dedicated tool to store/retrieve them) :P

I did the same for a while, but it was a mess (700+ unsorted bookmarks on my main computer, 100s more on others).

I tried shaarli, but soon after I tried to build something myself, and I created share-links.

It's an open-source Django app that you can self-host, and that lets you store (and share!) links, titles, descriptions, and tags. Then it display them in a nice way (for me : not much css, a simple page with no js).

It took some dozen of hours to get to the point where it's really usable, and it still have problems now (comments are not moderated, I just realized that you can't add a description in links or tags, but I will fix this soonTM).

Here's the link of the repo: https://gitlab.com/sodimel/share-links/

One cool feature is to set your browser homepage to the url that loads a random page : each day I get a cool article to read/concept to discover!

That's my useless side project (because shaarli already exist and it's way more mature).

Not a full deploy guide (you need to have apache running & working fine), but I made a small tutorial for a bookmark-related app I'm working on on my free time: https://gitlab.com/sodimel/share-links/-/blob/main/DEPLOY.md.
