Anyone here recall “delicious” (wasn’t that what it was called, basically the first bookmarking app…

This sounds like that.

I want a cross between delicious and workflowy

Another similar site that I used back in the day was StumbleUpon.

“Just one more click.” Addictive stuff xD

Anyone who remembers StumbleUpon will likely relate to (and probably also remember) this image https://beta-techcrunch-com.cdn.ampproject.org/ii/w820/s/bet...

Never since have I found such unique and interesting web apps/essays/videos. Was very cool how it took you to the actual site, but somehow felt a lot more curated than the link aggregators of the time. Every single click was so fun! One of my favorites was a sort of proto- /r/place, where you could place pixels as many times as you wanted on an infinite canvas. Sometimes you could return days or weeks later and still find your art.
I miss StumbleUpon so much, there was sooo much good stuff there. O wonder why more recent recommendation stuff isn't as good.
Yes, del.icio.us, and something similar still exists at pinboard.in, but sadly without the full social sharing features which where available at del.icio.us
