Can probably set up some kind of AI workflow that exports your bookmarks -> attaches them to an LLM chat -> asks the LLM if anything across your bookmarks can be useful for the problem you're tackling/googling/etc.
Appreciate the comment, feels great
Carouse != peruse? Though maybe on Fridays everything has a party atmosphere...
I can’t think of a more relevantly time to carouse than when browsing my deep archive of ADHD-sorted bookmarks.
I'm influenced by Tom Nook's usage of the term in, "Animal Crossing" or, "どうぶつの森" for the Nintendo Gamecube.
I'd be happy to see that list. Perhaps consider sharing it.
Apparently the "Show HN" prefix would be appropriate here [0]. And this kind of a service is usually called a pastebin [1].

Thanks for the heads up! I update the title to show the appropriate tag. I'm familiar with the term pastebin, but this is not limited to just text and I do feel like pastebin.com has taken ownership of the term so I wanted to avoid confusion.
What happens if people use this to publish base64 versions of pirated works?
Or other illegal activities?

I've added a report functionality. It's not the perfect solution, that's for certain. But it's something while I figure out better ones :)
I've implemented a similar site a few years ago, with one crucial difference, which makes it even simpler: https://pastila.nl/
The difference is that there is no "share" button, so you don't have to press it, and just copy the page URL any time.

Neat! I like your solution, much better for simple text sharing.
Can I curl this file to a linux machine easily?
I was just the other day looking for a tool to easily move a non-sensitive file from my macbook, to my network-locked production machine. Rather than doing many hops through SSH tunnels, the easiest thing to do would be to host the file online, and wget it down to my linux machine.
The options out there were lacking. I used https://bashupload.com/ for a bit, but the problem is that after you download the file once, it gets deleted. Sometimes I want to share the file to multiple machines.

I use ffsend, the old send.firefox.com stuff https://github.com/timvisee/send There are a bunch of public instances available here: https://github.com/timvisee/send-instances/

You can do this with tailscale: https://tailscale.com/kb/1106/taildrop

I’m currently using Gokapi for transfer, but planning to switch to this one.

I made an initial version, let me know if you find it useful! Docs at dum.pt/dev or just curl https://dum.pt :)
It wasn't a usecase I thought of, so it's not really accommodated for it, but I like it! I'll try make a nice little "for devs" page with simple endpoints :)
Something like a `/raw` suffix would be amazing. Example: `https://www.dum.pt/dump/302460a1-1ed0-40b0-b637-e9d04a168678...`.
you can just use catbox https://litterbox.catbox.moe/
Magic wormhole?

I love these websites. I think as bapak (and codefined) suggested, they tend not to last though, which is unfortunate. I also imagine it's fun to build. Good old fashioned simple utility.
Thanks for sharing.

This was in all honesty a very self-serving project! Fun to build, something I wanted and that's that. Fingers crossed it's smooth sailing and it doesn't end up in the graveyard like all the other :')
Why not simplify the URI?

"dump" seems redundant.

I've been giving this some thought... While I definitely agree with you, adding the extra route seems more "future-proof". And it's not like the urls are rememberable anyway... But it might be worth just making the whole link much much shorter over all. I'll think about this!
> And it's not like the urls are rememberable anyway
They're what everyone sees, when a link is shared. It's a fundamental part of the user experience, for a service like this. As stupid as it is, I would be a bit embarrassed to share a link with "dump" in it. Dump.ty is fine/great.
> adding the extra route seems more "future-proof".
I'd claim this is a separate issue. "routing" isn't real, after all, it's just string matching. Most/all routers have regex match options that might take some ns longer. You're free to do whatever you want in the future, trivially so if you make sure whatever future path doesn't look like an ID.

I liked your points, I updated the link structure. :)
Looks fantastic! As someone who has done it before, if this gets popular you'll run into some abusive users that you'll want to deal with. Microsoft will often give out free access to it's PhotoDNA service for detection of explicit images of minors. VirusTotal will often do the same for malware in exchange for samples. You'll also want to have a structured retention process, e.g. size is inversely proportional to storage time.
Good luck, get in contact (see my profile) if you run into any issues.

wow thank you so much for the tips! I had mostly just worried about piracy and thought that the maximum 24 hour retention policy would be "good enough". Naively, I had not thought of things I'd want to nip right in the bud (Like CP). So I will definitely be looking into the solutions you've mentioned. Thanks again!
Thanks but I'll continue to use similar services that don't embed google tracking.

Now if only somebody could make a tool that can audit my giant ass list of neat little tools so that when a use case comes around I remember, "ah yes this!"
