I loved Pinboard when I was using it, but my biggest pain point was the lack of a decent Android app. It was cumbersome to get websites from my phone's browser into Pinboard. I'd easily pay $2/month for a polished, modern Android Pinboard client.
- mevile 7y agoNevermind, my brain wasn't working.
- idlewords 7y ago$2/month * 50,000 users = $1.2M per year. Where exactly do you live where that's a year's pay?
- kej 7y agoI've been happy with PinDroid. It adds Pinboard as a share target, so you can bookmark things from any app with a share menu (including your browser, obviously). https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pindroid https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pindroid
- dstaley 7y agoI was specifically thinking about Pindroid actually! It hasn't been updated in over two years. I had some weird issues where the back button of the share intent wouldn't correctly return me to the app I was sharing from, instead bringing me to my bookmarks. There were a few other little small things, but the fact that it's not being maintained anymore doesn't give me hope it'll ever be fixed.

- kej 7y agoNot sure how it would fit in your workflow, but you can avoid that back-button bug by using the "read later" share intent (it's the pin with a white background instead of blue). With that one you get a toast message saying the bookmark has been added but you never leave the original app. That does mean you don't get to add tags at that time, though.
