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.

If it's all URLs, you can look here: https://github.com/awesome-selfhosted/awesome-selfhosted#bookmarks-and-link-sharing. I use linkding myself and save everything I want to look at later, avoiding the need to "save" or "pin" posts. Other solutions can also offer offline caching locally too.

can you quickly explain wait is your workflow if you find sth using mobile phone? do you copy URL, switch to service and paste it there?

For phone usage, I use this guide (Android): https://github.com/sissbruecker/linkding/blob/master/docs/how-to.md#using-http-shortcuts-app-on-android. So I never have to really copy any URL as long as there is a share button somewhere.

The browser extension also works like a charm.
