    🗃 Open source self-hosted web archiving. Takes URLs/browser history/bookmarks/Pocket/Pinboard/etc., saves HTML, JS, PDFs, media, and more...

    I looked at Wallabag and went for Pinboard again. Even subscribed for two years.

    Seems, it was a mistake.

    Archiving stopped around 85% of my bookmarks.

    I've had those problems before, especially when the owner played U.S. politics and didn't care much about Pinboard anymore. I still went back.

    Pinboard's support doesn't reply to mails, Pinboard's Twitter account doesn't reply, either.

    I've asked for a refund (within the one week refund window). No reply.

    Maybe he'll reply here. Last time I had such problems he also ignored my mails for a long time and finally replied on HN.

    People, look at Wallabag seriously. Maybe Pocket. And maybe Archivebox (https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox).

  • Wallabag

    wallabag is a self hostable application for saving web pages: Save and classify articles. Read them later. Freely.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • yunohost

    YunoHost is an operating system aiming to simplify as much as possible the administration of a server. This repository corresponds to the core code, written mostly in Python and Bash.

    I'm using it through Yunohost [1] on the lowest end DigitalOcean box. Works beautifully. I'm pondering bringing it in house on a RPi, just for shits and giggles and so I can truly own all my stuff...

  • wallabako

    It can: https://gitlab.com/anarcat/wallabako/

    I have tried many times to switch to wallabag. That darn kobo integration is what holds me back. I've installed this on my Kobo, but it is obviously not as polished as the official Pocket integration.

  • koreader

    An ebook reader application supporting PDF, DjVu, EPUB, FB2 and many more formats, running on Cervantes, Kindle, Kobo, PocketBook and Android devices

    I have installed KoReader[1] on my Kobo device and loving it. Less clutter and more functions in every way. Plus it has a NATIVE integration with Wallabag - I read all my articles on my eReader.

  • Shaarli

    The personal, minimalist, super-fast, database free, bookmarking service - community repo

    I was using Wallabag for years prior to around a month ago. It was largely working fine aside from being a bit slow and resource heavy. Looking around at other self-hosted options in that space brought me to a few other contenders like shaarli (https://github.com/shaarli/Shaarli)and shiori (https://github.com/go-shiori/shiori). Shaarli has been around forever and is insanely quick to load and add links, I just wish it had some sort of web-clipping support. Shiori seems ideal as a replacement, but it was essentially unmaintained for 1+ years, though a new maintainer stepped in within the last few weeks and has been pretty active during that time, so hopefully optimistic. I'll be watching Shiori for the next few months and see where it stands with development, then decide to make the move or not.
