    https://impermalink.spiffy.tech - Save Links for Later. Optimized for a triage-save-read-trash loop.

    I'm a long-time Instapaper/Pocket/Wallabag user. I love scanning my RSS feeds, saving links into those, and clicking 'mark all as read'. Then, when I have some downtime, I pore over all the interesting articles/videos I saved. I always have something interesting to read, and I can read it with focus, not doomscrolling and hoping to luck into something good.

    But Instapaper et al. aren't built for the way I use them. I put a link in, read it, and delete it. No tagging, no archiving. I usually don't even want text extraction. I just want to read something interesting, then I'm done with it. I can bookmark the link in my browser if I really want to.

    Also, I want to open HN/Reddit/YouTube links in their native mobile apps. Instapaper/Wallabag make that clumsy, Pocket makes it almost impossible. These apps also have bugs with sync, but I don't care about offline access, so why am I paying the cost for buggy offline sync I don't use?

    Impermalink is designed to streamline my workflow. You can share to it from other apps. When you click a link to open it, it's marked for deletion and will disappear the next time you click another link. You can rescue a link from the recycle bin. Links are grouped by domain, so it's easy to lump all those YouTube videos under a collapsed header so you can focus on other content. Links are just links - your browser will open them however it's normally configured to, including opening them in native apps on mobile.

    The app's condition is "rough and ready". It works enough that I use it every day and really enjoy it. The UX has obvious areas for improvement. The home page has no content. Svelte has bugs that double-render some of the content sometimes. But it's there, and it works.

    Give it a try, let me know what you think, [email protected]

    Install the app to your home screen with Chrome on Android. Yes, Chrome, not anything else, not even Chrome derivatives. I haven't tried on iOS yet. You can use the app in any browser you want, but only Chrome on Android knows how to share links to web apps.
