    How do you "compile" the bookmarklets? I know of https://bookmarkl.ink/ but then we're back trusting some third-party service again. I get that it's not rocket science, but this is definitively a small hurdle to overcome.

    Hi! Agreed re: advantages of gist/git backing. Comments and gist history via GitHub add a lot of value for free. The tool also allows bookmarklet creators to write in modern, un-obfuscated JS as there are transpilation, minification, and IIFE wrapping applied to the bookmarklet.

    The security risk angle is also a concern I share. If you take a look at the disclaimer at the bottom of my project README [1], you'll see this exact issue mentioned. Versioning gists and thus bookmarklets is discussed in the same document [2]. This locks bookmarklet source to a specific commit of the git repo underlying a gist.
