Problem: I scroll on lemmy, I talk to friends, I see some interesting page, project, funny meme or something else. (when I was on reddit i pressed SAVE, when I was on Instagram I pressed PIN (or something) and now I’m stuck with (uncategorised) information all over the place.
My current idea is: push everything to Telegram group where my bot listens, take the URL, maybe even extract some data and save it somewhere. 90% of my input will be over the phone but here and there also PC.
Any suggestions for self-hosted service to dump data in our (even better) to even skip whole bot part altogether?
UPDATE: Maybe I was a bit unclear. I want to “save” URLs and also somehow tag/categorize them. So I think plain bookmarks won’t cut it, also flow is important (on mobile), switching copy/paste is to much hassle.
Reminds me of the days of Stumbleupon when you could save webpages. Isn’t what you’re talking about just bookmarks? You would need a URL so it’d have to be in a browser anyway.
@mwalker789 Are you looking to create a “to read later” list, or to save the content to disk? Pinning and saving is like the former but your ideas about a telegram bot suggest the latter.
If it is more on the archiving side, here is a short list to get you started https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/wiki/Web-Archiving-Community
@mwalker789 @selfhosted Solution?: Use Yuito + a mastodon account to browse around.
I have a bookmark button below your post as I type this.
Not sure though if mastodon’s favourites translate to lemmy’s likes though, you also lose the “best of day/week/month” UI. So it depends on your use case.
I hope this helps!
@mwalker789 Not sure what you mean by everything else. You can see, follow, post, comment, favourite and bookmark any ActivityPub-compatible posts (that includes lemmy, for which I don’t have an account, yet here I am talking with you)
You want a “read it later” service, like Omnivore or Wallabag.
What is your workflow if you find something on mobile and you want to save it to omnivore?
You share it to the Omnivore app. Couldn’t be easier.
It does neat things like unfolds Twitter threads also.
