Doesn't the search bar already have the option to search your history and bookmarks?

This one seems to index also the content of pages.

Ah. May make sense for some people. For indexing, I personally would prefer to use a bookmark service (self-hosted) that handles this.

Oliver here, from the Memex team.

Up until now all data is stored on your own device, or in your personal cloud with a file system integration (like a Dropbox folder)

We are about to release our mobile apps for iOS and Android, as well as syncing between devices. Both the extension and mobile app will be offline first and sync happens with an end2end encryption via a relay server that deletes all messages after all devices have been picking them up. That server will in the mid-term be self-hostable too.

Oh, there's a self-hosted one? Any link?

Nice, too bad the organization part is card-based, would have loved a drag/drop interface like with Bookmarkninja [1]

Oliver here, from the Memex team.

are you referring to Memex being card based? In which part of Memex would you like to have that drag&drop ability to organise stuff?

For organizing collections, that would be awesome!

How would you like to organise it? Like in your screenshot? Is it the ordering inside a collection that is important to you? Would it solve it if you were able to order items inside a collection?
