> I've used Delicious for 12 years, with 10,000+ bookmarks in it

I've used it for 7.5 years with 22k+ bookmarks.

I stopped using it last year because of the downtimes as well.

> I was frustrated that the Delicious export went away

Too much load on their servers.

Instead of transferring, I simply made a simple bookmarker with similar functionality (allows importing) that I could self-host.

See https://github.com/dyu/bookmarks/ if interested.

Delicious export was broken long (years?) before the coming acquisition.

Fixing it seems to be on pinboard priority : https://twitter.com/Pinboard/status/870334621648654336 nice !

Yea I just read from the comments and updated my comment. It wasn't broken in the first half of last year (I was able to export)
