I've been a long time Delicious user, and I'm still a Delicious user. I used to use the Firefox browser plugin until that stopped working. But I still continue with Delicious. Why not? It does what I need it to do.
But now I feel like I just want a self-hosted version of what Delicious does. I use my bookmarks for my own sake - I really don't care about sharing them with others or discovering new links through Delicious. Should I self host or is there a better option for me?
Time to download my links before they disappear, I think.
- Skywing 12y agoChrome's bookmarks auto sync to your gmail account, if you sign in to Chrome. I've been using it to replace Delicious for quite a long time, now.
- rexreed 12y agoBut I don't just use Chrome and I want to access my bookmarks not just on my own browser. I want access on all my browsers and in any setting where I wish to reach them. If I was always using the same browser then Chrome would work, but there are times I'm working at a client site and don't have the ability to either use Chrome or sign in to my personal account, yet I wish to access a stored bookmark. This is where Delicious comes / came into the picture... Maybe my use case is different?

- voltagex_ 12y agoExport them from Delicious but also set up pinboard.in to import them. It's worth the one-time fee.
