I've been trying to use RSS feeds to replace the Twitter bots like https://mobile.twitter.com/newsyc300 (which stopped working a couple of months ago, and I was following via RSS anyway).I've been usinghttps://hnrss.org/newest?points=250and I've noticed that sporadically items with fewer than 250 points get picked up by my feed reeder, but then disappear from the feed.Furthermore right now the...

April edition here:https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31183419Is anything new for anyone? My archiving accounts still don't work, I've tried emailing a few times asking for a refund (after many emails asking for a fix), but haven't heard anything back.
What would you be bringing for a whiteboard? I also use microfiber cloths for cleaning these, but I don't know any other tricks.
Thanks - wish it could be used with more browsers, this looks amazing (I use orgmode all the time, but I also use Safari...). That said, it looks good enough that I'm going to give it a go, thanks again for pointing it out.
Thanks - good suggestion - I'll try asking for a refund and see where it gets me...
Thanks! I gave up on tagging some time ago, too (decent search is more important for me).

We've had two threads about Pinboard in the last few months:https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31183419https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30628375My own situation is unchanged: paid archiving accounts aren't archiving, and one of them isn't functioning at all (can't even view the bookmarks for individual tags), and I haven't had a reply to the many emails I've sent Maciej.Looking around for...
I started the previous thread and nothing has changed for me - I just looked and my wife's account is still completely broken (full text search just returns errors), and 90% of the bookmarks on my account for the previous month have failed to archive at all.
I have 7240 bookmarks, which is apparently using 26.55 G of space.
Thanks for the ArchiveBox suggestion - from the demo, this could be extremely useful!
Thanks - have made a note to take a look again once archiving and full text is working (which are the key features for me).
Thanks, this sounds like exactly the same behaviour as on my account...
Thanks! I have a suspicion that the issue with my wife's account is caused to the account name (and in particular the fact that it contains a hyphen), as any search throws an error "unknown local index 'blah__blah' in search request", with the account name actually being 'blah-blah'.
Full search text existing archived bookmarks still works fine on my account, but only about 1 in 20 new bookmarks are archiving now.
Anyway, I'm glad to hear that it's still rock solid for you, hopefully it can be for me again.

I know there have been threads like this in the past about sporadic difficulties, but from my own experience and complaints here and on twitter, I'm wondering if pinboard.in's paid archiving service is broken, and if there is any chance of a fix; and if not, what people have moved on to as an alternative.For the last 4 months, my paid archiving account has almost completely stopped archiving...
Now showing as fixed fwiw.

tobygee at google on the off-chance that anyone does have invites spare.
Well, yes - but that was clearly rather different, as the 2G wasn't subsidised, and indeed didn't require a contract at purchase. This seems to be consistent with all other upgrades from subsidised phones ever, so I'd say it is historically consistent.
