  • A list of SaaS, PaaS and IaaS offerings that have free tiers of interest to devops and infradev
    Raindrop.io - Private and secure bookmarking app for macOS, Windows, Android, iOS, and Web. Free Unlimited Bookmarks and Collaboration. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago
  • Linkhut: A Social Bookmarking Site
    I setup Raindrop.io [1] to feed into Archivebox, mostly as an overcomplicated way to automatically submit the page to archive.org [2]. Raindrop is nice since it works in browser and as a phone app - so it truly is a single bookmarking tool. I mostly use it for search purposes, bookmarking things I may want to find again in a few years. I rarely look at my Archivebox, but it's nice to know it's there with offline... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago
  • Firefox on the brink?
    What about https://raindrop.io/ ? Seems to do exactly what you're building. Source: 5 months ago
  • What is the best web clipper?
    Raindrop.io is a bookmark manager, right? Source: 5 months ago
  • Evernote is not alone.
    I switched from Pocket to Raindrop. Raindrop is an order of magnitude more feature rich and also less expensive than Pocket. I highly recommend it. Source: 5 months ago
  • Grimoire: Open-Source bookmark manager with extra features
    I use raindrop https://raindrop.io/ to manage my bookmarks but would switch if this actually gets browser extensions and stuff. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago
  • Show HN: Linkwarden – An open source collaborative bookmark manager
    I like to save the best / most interesting links I come across as I browse the web. It can come in handy to pull up a blog post I read a while ago or remember some new sass product or developer tool I wanted to check out. I'm using https://raindrop.io now which works great for this. When I looked into it I was surprised that browsers don't have this kind of bookmark management built-in. I'd be very happy with two... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago
  • Show HN: Linkwarden – An open source collaborative bookmark manager
    I've used Raindrop[1] for the last few years and it works well - cross device support, archived pages, and tags/folders. Going to check out Linkwarden since I really like the idea of being able to self-host something similar since Raindrop could one day disappear (#googlereaderneverforget). A feature Raindrop has is it can export bookmarks to a standard xml file, which I then have a script that automatically adds... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago
  • IT Pro Tuesday #259 - Collaboration Platform, Cisco Training, SyncML Tracing & More
    Raindrop is a highly capable, all-in-one bookmark manager. Oliver explains, "installs as a browser extension, desktop app, and phone app. Anything which has the option to share, you can share to raindrop… has a ton of cool features such as:. Source: 10 months ago
  • Advice for an Apple GTDer academic/researcher considering moving from Evernote
    I don't know about forwarding an email directly but you can sync your Obsidian with a lot of different apps that would allow a third party dump. I use Trello and raindrop.io for this purpose. Source: 10 months ago
  • Chrome's bookmarks manager on Mac is painfully slow. How to fix?
    There's https://raindrop.io but its iOS app has problems like folders won't collapse or expand, and it was a pain for me to use, plus it just gives you a tab on the Mac version of Chrome. Source: 10 months ago
  • Help me decide on moving from android chrome to a more privacy friendly browser
    Kiwi is probably your best bet. Sync can be achieved with apps like raindrop.io and floccus. I tried it out once, but the problem is I use Opera GX on PC so a proper sync was an issue for me, and that sidebar has spoiled me too much that I don't wanna switch browsers right now. Source: 10 months ago
  • Switching from Chrome to Safari (MacOS 13.4 / M1 MacBook Pro 14")
    Thanks for the advice! I have just found this https://raindrop.io to sync my bookmarks between platforms, haven't looked into it just yet though. Source: 10 months ago
  • Any Suggestions for Bookmark Managers?
    I really enjoy https://raindrop.io/. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago
  • Ask HN: What's a good, privacy focused bookmark manager?
    Https://raindrop.io/ I like Raindrop. Developed by an indie dev, no ads and tracking, revenue comes from subscriptions. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago
  • Firefox scrolling on Facebook
    Floorp and FF: Very fast, boring UI and got the scroll problem. Brave: Very fast but after a while it breaks my internet and say no internet connection. Way too big UI. Chrome: Privacy is not good, quite fast and amazing scrolling, I am allergic to choppy scrolling. Edge: Fast and nice scrolling, beautiful UI with the rounded corners but it is way too big UI. Vivaldi: Would be my favorite if it didn´t crash... Source: 11 months ago
  • Can we import all Medium reading list articles to Reader?
    You can use a second app called raindrop.io. They have a Medium integration (to save your lists/rss feeds). Then share the Raindrop RSS to Reader. I tested it and it seems to work with non premium articles. Source: 11 months ago

  • Any URL/Website hoarders?
    I currently use https://raindrop.io/ & I have workona looking for a free alternative. Source: 11 months ago
  • Todoist for capture? Thinking about using Todoist to capture web bookmarks (articles, websites, books, podcasts, etc.). Are any of you doing the same? If not what tool are you using?
    Raindrop.io is probably the best for bookmarks.. Free as well. Source: 11 months ago
  • Sure is hard to leave you Evernote
    Not sure what you used EN for but I just had notes and web clips. I use raindrop.io for bookmarks now which lightened the burden on finding a replacement notes software. Source: 11 months ago

Pinboard vs. Raindrop: Two bookmark apps enter…
Raindrop’s URLs, by contrast, are an absolute dumpster fire. Collections (which are the only “shareable” aggregation in Raindrop) are identified by a lengthy meaningless number-string, not collection name; I haven’t memorized my collections’ numbers and likely won’t. Worse, I can’t copy-and-paste URLs from the address bar because they’re different for the logged-in account owner and anyone else! There’s a whole...

Raindrop.io is a capable alternative to Pocket in terms of versatility and intuitive reading experience. In other words, you should consider it a feature-rich bookmark manager.

It can help you get your work done efficiently whether you...
