I'm really excited about our improvements and am happy with our progress in this v1 release, it feels good to be back here after a lot of work :)
[1]: but never could get it to because documentation seems to be close to non existant.
I _love_ the idea and tech behind Perkeep. But holy shitballs the documentation and UX are ...imperfect.
This might be the midway between "bunch of markdown files" and Perkeep for me.
What interests me the most is an advertised ability to bridge self-hosted Wiki (did I get it right?) for taking any kind of notes with web-bookmarking and ability to perform a good-quality search over the _content_ of bookmarked pages. This is where I'm having a real pain. There are so much great useful stuff on the Internet, but it so hard to find some very specific thing that you know exists and you've even bookmarked it long ago... So if it'd solve that pain and also features a comparable to DokuWiki notes engine... I think, it'd be an absolutely great thing! I'll give it a try.
BTW: does it support importing existing bookmarks from Firefox?
I haven't looked into redacting a privacy statement, might be a good idea :)
I think you should put in a simple privacy statement that comes down to "Archivy won't make any external requests" if it's going to be as simple as that, and then stick to it like glue. If it's not that simple, be accurate to whatever room you'd like to leave yourself, and then stick to that.
Not having a statement like that leaves the future open for a future git pull to change the landscape. Technically the statement won't stop that, but it'll keep the project accountable.
FWIW it's way more important for this sort of thing because it's a stack you have to invest lots of time and notes into and buy into long term. Were I going to run a personal wiki, I'd be very interested in knowing I could likely use it for a long time.
cite-proc or bibtex style reference processing would make this very useful for keep a research/science log
