Huh, weird. Archiving is working reliably for me, and I just tested full-text search against recently archived PDFs, and it too is working. Just a data point!

It's one of the annoying things about running (or being a customer of) a SAAS company, is that if something is wrong with someone's account, it can look like the whole world is broken --- but it might just be broken for some weird, unpredictable-but-deterministic subset of accounts.

(Or maybe it's only working for some weird, unpredictable-but-deterministic subset of accounts).

Good luck! I love Pinboard too.

Thanks! I have a suspicion that the issue with my wife's account is caused to the account name (and in particular the fact that it contains a hyphen), as any search throws an error "unknown local index 'blah__blah' in search request", with the account name actually being 'blah-blah'.

Full search text existing archived bookmarks still works fine on my account, but only about 1 in 20 new bookmarks are archiving now.

Anyway, I'm glad to hear that it's still rock solid for you, hopefully it can be for me again.
