Análise por Laila
Worldbrain 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).

- Avaliado em 1 de 5por Utilizador do Firefox 16746023 , há 8 mesesTotally complicated and it is not user friendly. Gave up. You cannot delete your account yourself but need to write to them.

Has bugs. Has limits in the free version, and you must create an account and become a paid member to lift them. - Avaliado em 5 de 5por moonyoulove , há 3 anos

- Avaliado em 1 de 5por Utilizador do Firefox 17333966 , há 4 anosI'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.

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! - Avaliado em 5 de 5por Utilizador do Firefox 14702600 , há 5 anos
