Looking for people to interview about my self-hosted bookmark manager in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

Thanks for the input! Lots of these features are on the roadmap already. There are no AI features planned.

I’m fine with an informal structure, as long as we talk about some of the topics I want to learn about :) DMOZ looks fascinating. Seems like curlie is its successor, but their page doesn’t load for me.

Thanks! Integrated search & website icons are coming soon. Tags are already there but are called lists - which is probably a bit confusing.

Thanks for the hint - it seems there are some routing problems to the server. I'll look into it!

linkblocks is inspired by wikis but differs in some key goals:

  • the UI for discussions will be more upfront than in most wikis, and will look more like lemmy's comment UI.
  • bookmarking-specific features like dead link checking, full-text website retrieval & search
  • optional stream of new bookmarks & comments from people you follow

That's one of the reasons I'm doing the interviews :)

Looking for people to interview about my self-hosted bookmark manager (lemmy.world)
 

I’m interviewing folks to determine the roadmap for my federated link sharing project “linkblocks”. If you like bookmark managers, lemmy, are.na, or any other app for curating and sharing stuff, this is your chance to make me build your dream app ;)

A session takes about 30 minutes in a voice chat. If you’re interested, comment here or send me a DM!

For the curious, here's a demo for the current prototype. The code is on github.

In contrast to other bookmarking apps, linkblocks focuses on collaboration and discussion. Discussion will be a bit like on lemmy, but instead of voting, bookmarks are discovered through tagging and following individual users.

I created a user-friendly reader for AskHistorians, using the pushshift archives (ask-historians-archive.netlify.app)
 

I wanted a way to browse the AskHistorians subreddit on my phone without using the reddit app or website. It also bugged me to have all this valuable information on a site that might make it disappear on a whim.

So, I present to you the AskHistorians Archive. It allows you to browse past submissions to the subreddit, it’s ad-free, works on mobile, loads fast, and works without JS.

For now, it only contains some of the most recent posts up until 2022-12-31, but I’m planning to upload more over time.

I hope this is useful to some - happy to hear and implement any feedback!
