Awesome! Once AI local LLMs are efficient enough maybe incorporate one to use the meta for semantic searching. Could even be possible now with rudimentary machine learning.That'd be an absolute game changer... Google search for your bookmarks

Have always felt the same way about bookmark managers, we need one to rule them all.

Thought about a semantic search? I always end up looking for bookmarks but don't remember the website and I haven't stored it in an organised way

I wrote an application from scratch which allows backup jobs to be added / scheduled with the usual incremental, full options. I wanted to use backblaze and do it as efficiently as possible as well as learn a few things on the way. The thing I realised when using a backblaze app on Linux to backup was the list charges become massive when dealing with a huge photo library, videos, millions of files etc. in total I'm backing up around 4-5tb.

The application I use stores a checksum of the file in a local mysql dB then if a rescan is necessary it's done locally. It also allows me to store encryption keys locally and not depend on backblaze encryption keys.

Given I'm storing checksums locally I can also do duplication checks and purges which is great for images.

Probably overkill and no doubt other applications exist which does the job better but this runs flawlessly and costs around ยฃ7.50 a month for my data needs
