congrats on year 7!
I signed up years ago when delicious decided to completely redesign their service for no apparent reason and broke backwards compatibility with all plugins and made the main site less usable.
I am very happy that none of that asshattery is happening at pinboard and the site remains the boring plain ugly link collector that it is.
I do find myself using pocket more and more however and would be curious if Maciej has any thoughts on that service. seems like so far the've done everything right. Although they are aggressive with new features which to me is a little worrisome because sooner or later some executive will try to be brave and fuck it up with useless redesign.
- idlewords 10y agoI haven't looked at Pocket for a long time, so I don't have a meaningful opinion to share. The scenario you lay out is exactly the kind of thing I wait for. It takes superhuman effort (or laziness) not to make gratuitous changes.
- 100k 10y agoI use both Pocket and Pinboard. For me, Pocket serves as a "I'll read this later" service. If I find the article noteworthy, I'll bookmark it in Pinboard (using the email gateway). Pocket has released a number of premium features that put it more in Pinboard's area of strength, but at this time I'm happy to continue using Pinboard.
