What if I store my collection of links on merv.news or something like that instead of my garden? It's not like anybody looks for these links there except for me.

I'm applying for an account on merv.news under the same username. What is the culture there? What are the conventions? Are there any link-capturing tools? Can I depublish links? Are there tags?

@bouncepaw you can't totally erase something from the lemmy instance, so keep that in mind when you share something. You can make it hidden, but you can't erase it entirely.

If you don’t wanna store links on your garden, try Zotero. You can sync data between devices. Desktop and mobile apps are there

@danilax86 oh Zotero is the last app I want to use for that

> We are excited to announce the release of lemmyBB. This is an alternative frontend for Lemmy, based on the design of phpBB. It turns Lemmy from a link aggregator with upvotes and image previews into a traditional forum, or bulletin board.

here they are, playing on my phpBB nostalgia

While cooking the dinner, I was thinking of what I want from my perfect bookmarking system. Looks like I'll end making my own hahaha.

It will be named after a tree. It will have #IndieWeb and #Mycoverse federation, with the former being simple to implement and latter being made up by me; I'm not talking about ActivityPub here. It will be a single binary. It will have a single file storage (SQLite). It will have categories.

Tell me something like that exists before it's too late.

@neauoire I know this HTML file, it's cool. But this is not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about collections of contextualized links. For example, see the links here: melanocarpa.lesarbr.es/hypha/c

Your collection is more like “Here are some cool sites”. I should have a place like that too, of course, and it's going to be in Melanocarpa.

@bouncepaw I'd write that /c page by hand I think, I'd add a <p></p> tag if I have something to say about a specific link.

@neauoire Yeah, that's basically what I'm doing and I don't like it. I want to have these links separate from my garden, and my garden to focus on my content, not links few people out of few people who visit the site will click.

@bouncepaw when your done building it, let me know, I’ve been looking for something like this too.

Currently I’ve been writing weeks in review with described links of what I’ve found interesting that week. I use obsidian to keep contextualised lists of links, usually as research for a project or essay.

I've come up with a name: Betula, which means Birch in Latin.

Fun fact: birches and fly agarics are known to form a good mycorrhiza with each other. 🌳💚🍄 Ah, I wish I had time for that. Uni is tiresome.

Also, listing the ideas here from now on:

melanocarpa.lesarbr.es/hypha/b

It is fun to revisit these toots now that @betula exists not just in my dreams.
