> If you add bookmarks, their webpages contents' will be saved to ensure that you will always have access to it
b) It's not inline with the idea of archiving things you care about. If you don't control it you can't rely on it. You definitely can't rely on wayback machine to always exist. Someone's got to keep paying for those servers and it's not a huge profit center, and there have been questions regarding its survival before because of lack of money.
that's not very interesting because when I find an interesting read I rarely bookmark it. For me bookmarks are links that I visit often.
> b)
that is a fair point, however I think the wayback way is still not too shabby an idea. It ensures there's a copy snapshotted just in case, and yes it might not last forever but it's done a fantastic job so far so not trusting it now just because it'll not survive sounds a minor risk imho.

it's just a form where you paste the URL of the site you're interested.
Lots of us use Pinboard.in or similar "bookmark" services. They aren't "Browser bookmarks" they're just forms in some separate app too. We find them more useful than browser bookmarks. The pasting can easily be worked around with a simple bookmarklet.
I'm not sure what point you're trying to make.
When I read the description of Archivy, I had the same impression (it somehow captures the action of bookmarking).
So I looked at the code to see how it was done, and in fact, as you said, it's more like a local pinboard/similar "bookmark" services.
No real point to make, just clarify what 'bookmark' it was.
This is plaintext markdown files. You can easily integrate git with it which will provide a timestamp and cryptographic proof that the contents are unchanged.
