    Espial is an open-source, web-based bookmarking server.

  • I use Espial[1] for bookmark management. It’s a self-hosted Pinboard clone.

    Worth reading the “What Happened to Pinboard” threads before considering it.

  • elfeed-org

    Configure the Elfeed RSS reader with an Orgmode file

  • 3. For priority tracking, I use the builtin org-agenda with org-super-agenda[4] to create "views" based on some metadata[5].

    This is all done without closing Emacs once.

  • I use [nb](https://github.com/xwmx/nb). It's a CLI tool (easy to write a GUI for if you want one) that is fast, uses Git to version control things, and handles more than just bookmarks. I sync across computers using Dropbox.

  • I would also offer to use a single file wiki such as tiddly wiki. It’s more than a bookmark manager, but it can be edited on the web and even stored in a git forge (like GitHub page).
