Ask HN: Indexing a Set of Personal Sites
I am sure all of us have bookmarked/collected many URLs over time due to various reasons. As this collection grows it becomes difficult to maintain a record of what each URL was interesting for (why I saved it), which makes some sort of a search into the contents of those URLs useful.
My question is are there any existing tools or suggestions to build some scripts to achieve this whereby I can do a search only on my private URL collection? I wouldn't like to store the contents on my local machine, but maybe some sort of an indexing can be used?
Couldn't get much in a simple DDG search so asking here. Well I have several browsers and do CTRL+D when I find something interesting, and the bookmarks pile up over the course of a year. After that, I export them through the browser to a HTML file that I then review after a year. Anything interesting, I keep for posterity. It helps if the URL is still active and not subject to link-rot. I avoid cloud services like Raindrop or Pinboard for my bookmarks since they could shutter without notice, and I prefer a local copy. Over time, I've organized all the URLs into neat categories so I can visit them at my leisure. A few months ago an HN user recommended to use the YaCy search engine to index personal bookmarks: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31848210#31848566
