Ditched Pinboard for Raindrop. Been using the former's archival version for years whilst the free tier for the latter. Was mediating via Spillo + Pinner. Yet, the former's founder has always been too much of an innovation sceptic for all things web2/3. 

Are there any hybrid crypto solutions for bookmarking?

I've stayed with Pinboard all these years because I'm reasonably sure my data's not being sold. After I'm done with my current project, I'm thinking of creating my own bookmarking service.

Are you happy with Raindrop?

I've used Raindrop for several years (and Pinboard before that, and led engineering for a large social bookmarking competitor before that).

Raindrop is fantastic. Right abstractions (notes, tags, collections, shared collections, cached copies), full text search, fast bookmarking. I will pay for it forever.

The fundamental problem with bookmark services is the market is small, so it's hard to have an outlier outcome. So many startups have died.

Pinboard checked a lot of boxes, but is ~basically abandoned. Raindrop has more features at the cost of complexity, and seems not reliant on venture growth (10 years and counting)
