We're back to the pre-Google era and suddenly I'm aggressively bookmarking stuff like it's 1995.

I recommend not just bookmarking, but downloading a copy. Either a webarchive file or manually extract the main content from there (Reader mode in browsers is great help). Link rots happen. More than half of my bookmarks don't work.

  Yes!!! I've been playing around with SingleFile and other similar software to try and hoard as much useful data as I can. And I've been mocking preppers for all these years.

    An acquaintance of my second cousin has experimented with SingleFile CLI (https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/single-file-cli https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/single-file-cli) and she reports it works great (it is rather heavyweight because it does invoke headless Chromium or even Firefox if you set it up right).

  it also never hurts to throw the URL into archive.org. This will archive it for everyone else too

On the other hand it is not 1995. Time has moved on. I wrote a Simple RSS feed, that also serves as search engine for bookmarks. I am able to run it in attick on raspberry pi. We do not have to rely so heavily on google. https://github.com/rumca-js/Django-link-archive https://github.com/rumca-js/Django-link-archive It is true that it does not serve me as google, or kagi replacement. It is a very nice addition though. With a little bit off determination I do not have to be so dependent on google. Here is also a dump of known domains. Some are personal. https://github.com/rumca-js/Internet-Places-Database https://github.com/rumca-js/Internet-Places-Database ...and my bookmarks https://github.com/rumca-js/RSS-Link-Database https://github.com/rumca-js/RSS-Link-Database Some more years, and google can go to hell.
