It's been a year since last I was there, and it looks like they're halfway back to where they were when they bought it.
I can find links to a website by typing its name into a search box now. I can see a list of my own links now. Those are nice improvements (or dis-catastropic-mistakes) over the last version.
I still can't sort search results by anything other than, well, randomness it seems. Certainly not by number of points. Maybe by date of the last save?
So yeah, halfway there. Even the font is halfway between the terribly oversized font from the redesign and where it belongs. I once got 20 links to a page. Then I got 4. Now I'm back to 9, which at least looks like a list.
I'll check back in a couple years to see where they're at. But I'm not going to start using them again. Fool me once, and all that.
- sergiosgc 13y agoThe only thing that kept me on delicious is an unofficial android app (droidicious, if I recall correctly), that keeps all the functionality of their old site. It's ridiculous to the point that I send my browser tabs to my tablet so I don't have to suffer the horrid bookmarklet (pet peeve: add all common tags; are they stupid?)
- wslh 13y agoI don't think they had a good product manager. I quit delicious a few months ago because of their lack of support of browser add-ons. It takes less than one week to develop a good add-on for Chrome! Another disturbing thing was the UX: delicious was slower in 2013 than in 2009... Sorry, I can only bash them: it is hard to do a business around Delicious but destroying what worked is irrational. The delicious app for Android goes in the right direction but it's late.
