24 alternatives to Tinboard; a terminal-based client for the Pinboard bookmarking service
I've just made the first "proper" release of a tool I've been wanting to work on for a while now. As a long-time user of Pinboard I've been wanting to build a terminal-based client for the service, one that works "just so" and which I can hack on. I hope it might be useful to other Pinboard users too. See https://blog.davep.org/2023/12/19/tinboard.html for some more background and detail on the project.
Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes. Tinboard; a terminal-based client for the Pinboard bookmarking service launched in 2023; newer entries below may have overtaken it.

Just wanted to share that I just open-sourced Pushpin today under the GPLv3 license. I've been building it since 2012 and it's become one of the most popular iOS clients for Pinboard [0] [1] [2]. It hasn't gotten a large update in quite a while, but it still runs perfectly on the latest iOS and iPad OS devices. Enjoy!

We are longtime members of HN and this is our only submission requesting feedback from the HN community on our product, Clipboard which we have been developing for the past year. Clipboard is a service to save anything online using a bookmarklet or browser extension (think Dropbox for content on the web). Clipboard is built using open source technologies, including Riak, Redis, NGINX, Node.js, and jQuery. One of our core differentiators is how we preserve the visual look and functionality of the original source, which is evident in the sample clips from github here:…

I like playing around with bookmarklets (bookmarks that are executable JavaScript) And I wanted to make a Quine (code that prints a copy of its own source code ad infinitum) So I made a bookmark-only notepad that saves a copy of its own executable and current state to a JavaScript executable bookmarklet. As you type, a link on the page updates with the source code and the internal state. You can drag this link to the bookmarks bar to “save” your work. Works cross device if you have browser sync on. No server involved!
