door Laila, 6 jaar geledenWorldbrain is a manager and annotation tool for web content. For me, it's the best I've used so far. The main features are:
* Organizing your links trough tags and collections;
* Searching and filtering these links trough the Memex's dashboard;
* Indexing;
* Annotation tool / highlighter;
* Backup (to a hosting service or offline);
* Nice UI (although it has some things to improve);
* FOSS.
For me, the main issues are:
* Instability: I don't know how the tests are done, but may be almost exclusively automated and/or few/none manual testing are done in Firefox before releasing an update. Twice it happened that Memex broke in the last 3 months or so. This time, in version 1.5.0 (Jan 6, 2020), the main features of tagging, putting links in collections, etc stopped working.
* Can't rename tags (it's possible to rename collections though);
* Can't tag files in general (PDFs, images, etc);
* Searching at "Add Tag(s)" or "Add To Collection(s)" only consider first term/word of tags.
** Eg.: You have a tag named "my tag" or "my-tag". If you search for "my", it will find it; if you search for "tag", it won't find it.
* Filter uses logical disjunction, not having an option to use conjuction instead;
* Can't reposition sidebar to left side;
* No mobile app (yet);
* No dark mode (yet).

- Waardering: 1 van 5door Firefox-gebruiker 16746023, 8 maanden geledenTotally complicated and it is not user friendly. Gave up. You cannot delete your account yourself but need to write to them.
- Waardering: 3 van 5door JBrickelt963, één jaar geledenCe sera quand même super pratique si on pouvait y avoir accès également pour Firefox Android.

Has bugs. Has limits in the free version, and you must create an account and become a paid member to lift them. - Waardering: 1 van 5door amo, 3 jaar geledenBuggy and annoying.
Unable to export my data or links. They made a mess by automatically importing all my bookmarks without any consent.
Hijacks my YouTube video pages with unnecessary stuff that I am not able to disable. - Waardering: 5 van 5door dunno, 3 jaar geleden

- Waardering: 1 van 5door Firefox-gebruiker 17333966, 4 jaar geledenI'm a pleb so i rely on UX and statements of intention to indicate whether a project is actually privacy/self-hosted/encryption guided. This UX was very bookmarks grabby pre-account creation and their notion post indicate they're going the notion/polar route of starting open source, also willing to reconfigure their paying subscribers designations ~fatally flexible principles for a project aiming at a powerful techform.

- Waardering: 5 van 5door Firefox-gebruiker 14130624, 5 jaar geledenYeah, Pocket is cool and all, but Memex is where it's at. Why even use Pocket when you can use something way better that is stored on your own device or cloud service?
Only thing missing for my use-case is encryption, so I'd be able to use it to store research for work. Maybe some day! - Waardering: 4 van 5door Dees, 5 jaar geleden
