Samuel ProulxI'm still on the hunt for a good self-hosted link manager. #Goodlinks is okay, but only on IOS and mac, not windows. #linkwarden uses hover for, like, everything, making it almost completely inaccessible. #Hoarder has basically no labeled buttons or links. I want something that's #accessible, cross-platform, #selfhosted, will archive pages, and offers full-text search. Three quarters of the time when I use Google, I'm just searching for something I already know about. In an ideal world, a selfhosted link/bookmark manager would reduce my dependence on big-tech search engines. Maybe #archivebox? But that looks like it's more about storing the data than actually doing anything useful with it like search or tagging or whatever. #a11y
of course, neofeudal lords are looking to #wikipedia and #internetArchive with arson in their hearts, as they always do with the great libraries
between this and the web continuing to enshittify with AI slop and critical mass of advertising, it's probably time to start thinking about things in terms of offline-first
make local copies of resources that are important, get your personal content off of cloud providers, and archive everything you can
old phones, random flash drives, unused laptops - all of that can be put to good use as self-sovereign libraries. and if you have the financial means, seriously consider building or investing in a NAS
we have plenty of tools to make this possible:
kiwix is an offline reader for Wikipedia, Project Gutenberg, and several other online sources - there's even a method to turn a raspi into a hotspot that serves the archived content: https://kiwix.org/en/how-to-set-up-kiwix-hotspot/
youtube-dl is a program that you can use to download content from youtube, including full channels: https://ytdl-org.github.io/youtube-dl/
the Internet Archive also has a command line utility to bulk download content: https://archive.org/developers/internetarchive/cli.html
and take a look at #archiveBox - a self-hosted project that takes in urls and downloads relevant content while stripping out all of the extra shit you don't need: https://archivebox.io/

surviving and healthy bookmark archiver tools from last time i looked into replacing Pocket include LinkAce and ArchiveBox. i don't see a clear winner based on two minutes of browsing docs except based on implementation language vibes: ArchiveBox is Python, while LinkAce is PHP.
@benbrown you can do direct download from https://jouwbuis.nl/ and the software they use for that service is opensource i believe, so i could build a YouTube proxy service that strips ads, and i have a handbrake container that will re-encode anything i drop into a share into a high-quality bitrate 1080p mp4 container with AAC multi-channel.
i will probably wind up another docker server for tinkertime on this. i've been meaning to look at #ArchiveBox again too, it's kind of complicated!
Getting my mind blown by #ArchiveBox's README/docs. Good thing I don't actually have a ton of spare room on my NAS because…
"shove my entire Pinboard bookmark set into it for offline archival" as one of the first-listed usecases?!
