Not used by many people, but accomplished what I set out to: an extension that is accessible easily via keyboard shortcut at all times, that allows me to visually (open graph images, screenshots, thumbnails) search any bookmarks saved to Chrome.
The search is super-quick, and it has a bunch of other keyboard-shortcuts to quickly navigate my bookmarks.
So rad! I built an experiment a while back to do exactly this (https://onassar.github.io/experiments/boomerang-webhooks)
It's awesome to see this productized. I had the same annoyance: setting up and managing cron jobs.
Good luck with the launch :)
I ran into similar challenges w/ bookmarks: namely, being able to navigate them differently / more visually. It doesn't have the date-centered approach, but I use it daily to access bookmarks quickly (Command+Shift+K), and search/browse through them visually :)
It's a Chrome Extension that let's me quickly search through my Chrome Bookmarks. It's got plenty of hotkeys, and I use it 20+ times a day.

With the Figma plugin, you can access the 118k+ open source icons, emojis, illustrations and flags right from Figma.
You just install it, open up the plugin, and Iconduck will show up.
This was requested more than a few times. As Figma has grown and grown (I'm using a bunch now), I thought it'd be a fun side project to work on.
Would love any feedback y'all have :)
Gonna share it here incase anyone else finds it useful: https://onassar.github.io/experiments/boomerang-webhooks
It uses AWS API Gateway, Lambda and S3 to allow you to register a URL to be triggered at some future date.
Hope it's helpful!
This will become harder when mv3 gets pushed out broadly, but it's def not pretty :(
I'm actually working right now with someone from the HN community to build a Figma plugin, as well as someone else who's doing research.
Anyone who finds open source icons and illustrations interesting, would love your help :)
Would you still want to see a screenshot/thumbnail?
There are a lot of extensions out there that help you manage your bookmarks, but I wanted one that showed me a preview of each bookmark. Whether those are screenshots, open graph images, or thumbnails, I wanted to _see_ what the bookmark was.
I'll be open sourcing it soon to make the process more collaborative, but in the meantime, it makes it much faster (and easier) for me to search through my 700+ browser bookmarks and find what I'm looking for.
If you have any ideas on features, integrations or design feedback please let me know in the comments :)
Most browsers do seem to follow a standard, but I've yet to find a way to sync them across browsers, devices and machines (without having to use some 3rd party service like Evernote, or what have you). I always prefer solutions/approaches that don't require users to change their behaviour (eg. use another service to track links).
With the forthcoming version manifest v3 for Chrome extensions, this may prove trickier, but it should in theory be possible :)
Let me know if you'd want to contribute: oliver@iconduck.com
Could probably make it so you can right-click the image and open it in a new tab. Will take a look at that :)
The goal is to collect sets from across the web (atm, mainly Gumroad and GitHub) that have open source licenses that allow for them to be available on a central site.
I then use a service called Typesense (https://typesense.org/) to make these all searchable.
It's a scratch of mine that I wanted to itch, and it has pretty strong usage (along with a limited user base; around 1k signed up users).
It's a fun project to work on, and I'd love help on this. Anything from design, front-end, back-end, product or marketing.
