I don’t think they archive links. They only bookmark them. Am I wrong?
Pinboard has an archive option at a higher subscription level.
Where higher is still a ridiculously cheap $25/yr
And you don’t have to care about disaster recovery, backup and upgrades? If I were half-serious about my bookmarks, I’d pay that much. I am not though and pinboard free account is enough.
Not just that, but also link rot. In five years how many of those URLs will still have useful info on them?

(I didn't even know pinboard had free accounts.)

IIRC, I paid a small fee once, 10$ or something, but even when the website changed to subscription only, I was never asked to pay additional fee.
