I love bookmarks. I have made RSS app with bookmarking mechanism.

My links about bookmarks and links below.

https://github.com/rumca-js/Django-link-archive - django app, RSS client, simple web crawler, under construction

https://github.com/rumca-js/RSS-Link-Database - my bookmarks repository

https://github.com/rumca-js/RSS-Link-Database-2025 - RSS links for year 2025

https://github.com/rumca-js/RSS-Link-Database-2024 - RSS links for year 2024

https://github.com/rumca-js/RSS-Link-Database-2023 - RSS links for year 2023

https://github.com/rumca-js/Internet-Places-Database - I also maintain a list of domains found in the Internet

https://rumca-js.github.io/search - search that uses links maintained in zip files

https://rumca-js.github.io/music - my music library, browsable

https://rumca-js.github.io/bookmarks - my bookmarks, browsable


Damn this is internet gold. Gonna be lost in those repos for days, man.

Awesome work!


I use mixture of solutions for Web browsing

- I use RSS to see 'what's new', and to search it. My RSS client support search

- I maintain list of domains, so when I want to find particular place I check my list of domains (I can search domain title, description, etc.). I have 1 million of domains [0]

- If I want more precise information I try to google it

- I also may ask chatgpt

So in fact I am not using one tool to find information. I use many tools, and often narrowing it down to tools that most likely will have the answer.

I have been playing with idea of one big SQLite for domains. I can search it relatively fast, find things related to "amiga", "emulator" etc.

I must admit, that this is a difficult task. There are many domains for "hotels", "casinos", so I have to protect myself, just as google agains spam.



I have been gathering a lot of information about myself.

I wrote my own RSS reader. It is self hosted, so tracking is also done on phone.

I gather pages I visit through my reader, browse history, times a page was visited.

It is my window to the internet.

Many things needs to be an app, but so so many do not require.

Many apps are apps just because they can collect your data, and create walled gardens. It is harder to create extensions for existing apps, for web pages it is easier.


Not so sure. There are a ton of bad apps. They also do not work properly often.

Besides companies focus on apps, not on web pages. Less money, less focus, therefore worse experience


transparent in

what data is collected, how/where it's stored

...also if it is sold to anybody, or handed to.


Krita is so good, and so easy to use! I rarely use gimp now


I left big tech on the other hand. I use RSS for most 'news'.

I have bookmarks for most common Internet places: https://rumca-js.github.io/search

I have my music bookmarked also https://rumca-js.github.io/music

I have some parts of the Internet crawled. It takes a long time to boot, but once project is running I can search all domains: https://rumca-js.github.io/internet

Some people complain about AI slop. I do not encounter it.

That does not mean I do not use google, or chatgpt, but only for things I cannot find at my bookmarks.
