I was recently going to get a Pinboard subscription, but noticed the price doubled to $22/year. That's still a low price but at the same time I don't see obvious benefits over services I can use for free. This appears to be specialized for developers, so at least after an initial glance, it might be worth $24/year. Plus it comes with a six month trial.
- simonw 6y agoThe biggest benefit is that Pinboard has a solid track-record of NOT going out of business.
- bachmeier 6y agoNot as solid as Microsoft
- platz 6y agoI used pinboard happily, until i amassed enough bookmarks that filtering by a tag took upwards of 15 seconds to resolve.. So I built an open-source self-hosted site for my bookmarks now: https://github.com/jonschoning/espial https://github.com/jonschoning/espial
- VoxPelli 6y agoPaying for a bookmark archive should be considered a feature, an archive with no sustainable business model is less of an archive and more like a black hole. Partly because of that I also subscribe to Pinboards optional archiving of the actual pages bookmarked, so that even if they disappear from the internet I still have a copy from the day I bookmarked it.
