Currently grinding on Curabase (https://www.curabase.com), my tool for shared team bookmarks.

I built it to scratch my own itch. (Apparently I'm the only one with that itch. LOL)

I actually hit the front page of HN here a few years ago with it. Maybe it is time for a second go.

2021 will be the year I monetize it and hope to make it pay for its own hosting.

Hey, I used to have that same itch too! Curabase looks almost identical to the app I was building as a side project back in 2017. Column-based bookmarks, easy to categorize and reorganize, though I was using Material UI back then and was consumer focused.

Never launched... it became another unfinished project. I eventually realized that I don't really need to store that many bookmarks.

Lol -- I agree it is not an original idea. This is a completely selfish endeavor. I build it for myself and pretty much no one else. I do have some users right now but not enough to consider it a business.
