Anyone else using this? I was on the waitlist for a while, finally got access last week. So far they have Chrome and Firefox covered, and the app is available via a link.
I've been a big Pocket user for about three years or so, and apparently people who were also longtime Pocket users love this far more than Pocket.

How did this get past the new QBN SMS verification system?

I signed up, looks cool. I've been looking for a good service like Delicious since Yahoo bought them out fucking ages ago.

Nothing on the FAQ page about their charges or how it would be sustainable without?

Made by Tobias also the owner of Semplice WP theme and Carbonmade
The idea is cool, but I got some screenshots from a friend that got an invite and the tool is barely useful from what I've seen...uploading content is ridiculous when you have tons of content
This app needs to be offline/self hosted anyway and the main useful feature is tagging of content for easy search, but you can achieve this just with basic Dropbox/ Mac folders and tags and just use Spotlight search...
Then again I can remember where are all the files I've used since I started my career and can also recognise again countless images, websites, fonts just be seeing them - used to run http://www.baubauhaus.com/ with 2 of my designer friends and could recognise duplicate images we uploaded up to 40-50k images before I quit the project
Also provide WhatTheFont "services" for all my designer friends
Try to train your real mind, instead of uploading and unloading everything into a cloud somewhere, train your real memory!
- Love the transparent logo on http://www.baubauhau… brother!
Smart AND sharp!ideaist - re: Baubauhaus it's all Stefan and Andrei now, it's all custom made, but initially we run this website on Tumblrgrafician
- Btw re: Tumblr, the daily upload limit was 200 posts per day (back then at least, now Idk)grafician
- But imagine uploading 200 posts per day for a year or so and visually remembering each image to not post duplicates...grafician

I find Are.na just as or even more useful as it has collaboration: https://www.are.na/ for bookmarking stuff and content sorting

I’ve been using Dropmark for a few years now. I like the look of mymind - worth a try

Savee.it is good too but more for saving inspiration/images

grafician,
Good comments. Thanks. I use Pocket simply as a bookmarking tool, and that's it. I've not booked anything to a browser in years. Am I potentially under-using an app like this that I could be using to save even more?
My Mind seems interesting especially if there's an AI behind it that makes things far more searchable.
I've already asked them if there's going to be a sync from Pocket. I love Pocket, but I don't use any of their features that promote other content. I just use tags same as I would with browser bookmark folders.
- You can still use this only for real bookmarking, but it would be overkill if only for this. Try it out tho' before deciding anyway.grafician

Btw mg33 I think we really need just a simple tool for keeping bookmarks, think:
- a facebook or linkedin kind of timeline for all bookmarks
- you just copy paste a link into a post box
- the system recognises the link, pulls up title, cover image, link, description, just like on Facebook
- you add tags for this link and maybe add it to a folder/category
- that's ityou can add other features in time like
- quick search based on tags/keywords
- auto check for broken linksit could look like https://www.siteinspire.com/ more or less, but all in an app/self hosted webapp on your domain/hosting/local
Just all this, simple enough ha? Would pay $99-299 range for this app
I'm considering designing this app and looking for a develop to build this...

Are your data saved on their server?
What if they close tomorrow? You lose everything?
These unknown, small business always make me wonder if I will lose my data suddenly if they close down.

pasteapp.com/ from wetransfer.com is interesting
But for bookmarking I use google.keep.com, I love the drawing option if you have a wacom tablet.
But to keep track of documents and task from different services I find eesel got it right https://eesel.app/
