I always hold up https://pinboard.in/ as a poster child for a successful one-man shop. It's so successful he takes several months off at a time, right now he's in HK reporting on the demonstrations.

He's very generous with sharing his financials on his blog: https://blog.pinboard.in/2019/07/i_cant_stop_winning/



Funny, I have almost the same https://yabs.io which replaces good old delicious.


It's a shame he hasn't updated the financials since 2017 tho. I always liked reading up on it.



Thanks, the main Pinboard blog link seems to link to blog.pinboard.com/blog, which doesn’t seem to list your latest post.


That's why I pasted the link for you.


Did you read the latest blog post? I has financials for 2019


That's weird, when I click on "Pinboard blog", it redirects me to https://blog.pinboard.in/blog/, which stops at 2017. Just https://blog.pinboard.in/ does show the 2019 one.


Hey! Been using pinboard for years, so I love it/huge thanks... but please make the web UI a responsive layout so that it's usable on mobile. :-)

(I use the Android apps, and recently flipped from PinDroid to Pinkt, and both are usable but not enjoyable. The Pinkt UX looks great, it's just slow on all my bookmarks. If you don't like Android, maybe do a mini-partnership with the Pinkt guy to polish it into a great experience.)


Hey there. I'm working on this, at my usual agonizingly slow pace. But it's a project!


You should try https://fastbmk.com/

Responsive 100% and better in every other aspect ;)


FYI the person you replied to isn’t the owner (that would be user ‘idlewords’). Typo of It <-> I might have caused confusion.


Hey, I invite you to https://fastbmk.com/
