I tried Pinboard earlier this year. I found it too slow and was having issues with just general timeouts trying to categorize my bookmarks.

I requested a refund and got it straightaway. Along with a kind reply from the owner. No issues. (I think I had paid via PayPal so I was hardly worried). Also... $22.

Must everything be a free trial? There’s a lot of issues and costs associated with that for businesses (and increasingly regulation).

Now that I see this post from the owner, I’m inclined to sign back up again. I could have been one of those actually attempting to do a mass import when he was fixing it. And him being on 10-year old tech probably greatly contributed to my personal experience.

As the product itself goes, I think it’s worthy and useful. Having it be mobile-friendly will be helpful not so much for me but when I want to share a list of links to some other people I know who haven’t used a full-size keyboard in five years.
