My personal DIY bookmarks app to replace Pinboard launched on June 21, 2022 with 11 votes, #966 of 3,005 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 4 years on.

In plain words

This is a personal DIY bookmarks application designed as an alternative to Pinboard. Launched in June 2022, it allows users to manage and organize their saved links independently. The project is hosted on GitHub, making it accessible for those interested in self-hosting their bookmark collection or modifying the code to suit their needs. It's aimed at users who prefer controlling their own bookmark data rather than relying on third-party services.

    I recently re-jiggered my blog to use pinboard as it's CMS. A cron job runs once every 15 minutes and generates a static HTML file of my most recent 15 posts. Yes it is fairly limited in what it can do, but it's a great simple way to make what I already do on pinboard into a link blog.

    Nothing fancy. Bookmarker is a simple, browser-based app for managing bookmarks. Save links, create collections, pin items, search your knowledge base quickly. Still in beta, would be great to hear your thoughts so I can make it better.

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

    I've seen some interests in (simulation) video games here on HN so I thought I'd share a short version of our story. More than 6 years ago, me and my friend from university were playing around with an idea of making a game we always wanted to play. We worked on it on weekends but the progress was quite slow, especially due to so many dead ends and wasted effort. Eventually however, we solidified our direction and decided to take the risk to resign from our well paid SWE jobs and work on it full time. It took more than a year but yesterday we have finally released it on Steam:…
