Ask HN: Need help finding a specific HN article
I need help finding an article posted on HN in the beginning of this year. Probably it was on the first page. Also it could be a top comment in some "Ask HN" thread.
I don't remember title/site/author, but I remember what is it about. I have searched HN (site search, DDG, etc.) and all my bookmarks and browsing history for hours but still can't find it.
The article was a blog of some person describing how he set up a system to backup all their browsing history, chats, bookmarks, etc. The post included an image showing the architecture of all this. As I can remember he was backing up telegram chats to SQLite database for example. The author also mentioned that all this system took him a long time to create.
Thank you very much in advance!
- notional 5y agoDo you remember the image hosting site? If so, you could narrow down your search in Algolia to an approximate time frame, looking only for comments with a link to that site.
- fedormoiseev 5y agoThe image was in the article that was hosted on the author's site. The post/comment only linked to this blog post. But anyway I don't remember any urls
