I want a search engine that indexes and displays only the sites I ask it to (my bookmarks). I often come across insanely good articles and resources, but because I don’t really need them at that moment, I forget about them and can’t find them when I need them. Maybe there is a search engine at which you can throw good websites you find, and then use if you think you came across it before. (All stored localy)

Currently I am just storing everything into a Notion database, but then I either have to write down what that website is, or I will never find it.

Thanks and have a great day.

    I use Brave + uBlock Origin, they can make even the most bloated websites useable.

    I am not sure about Kagi’s exact system, but I don’t think it would help me much. I shouldn’t pay to search my own bookmarks, and I would probably prefer some complex system of tags where I can add my own notes, so I don’t have to fight against a stupid search engine. Besides, I need a system where I can take the URL of a random article I found, click one button, maybe add a tag and never see it again until I need it. It would be better if that tool was open-source so I can fix it myself if needed. But I will probably have to write it myself.

    Just realized Zotero kinda does what I want, but I saves everything which takes up space, and it’s “search” isn’t as convenient to use, as it isn’t designed for what I want.
