lastmark

Save a link.
Find it in
ten years.

Lastmark stores a url, its title, and the labels you give it. That is the whole product. No feed, no recommendations, no tracking — one Go binary and one SQLite file, plain enough to keep running long after the fashionable alternatives have been acquired.

Free up to 1000 bookmarks. No card, no trial clock.

A preview of the Lastmark list: a search field, a bar for pasting a url, and saved bookmarks shown one per row with their date, host and labels.

What you are actually signing up for

stores
A url, the page title, and the labels you put on it. Search covers all three.
does not store
Page contents, reading time, cover images, recommendations, or anything about who else saved the same link.
tracking
None. No analytics, no third-party scripts, no fonts fetched from Google — the two typefaces on this page come from the same server as the html.
saving
Paste a url and press enter, drag the bookmarklet to your toolbar, or import the export file your browser already knows how to make.
built on
Go, SQLite, templ and plain html. Nothing here needs a build step to keep serving pages, and there is no framework to age out from underneath it.
price
Free up to 1000 bookmarks.

Why this exists

I miss del.icio.us. Saving a link and tagging it is a small thing, and having done it for years is a large one — my labels are most of how I find anything I read more than a month ago.

The replacements I tried were slow, or busy, or had quietly become content feeds with a save button attached. The good ones were fine until I started wondering what happens to ten years of links when the company behind them gets bought. I did not want to migrate my bookmarks a third time.

So this is deliberately unambitious software. Go, SQL, templ and html, a single file on disk, no dependency I could not replace in an afternoon. It is not clever, and that is the entire feature.
