HN itself is a bookmarking tool, BTW

The management and search and annotation options are very weak, but when you submit a link here at HN, you are also making a permanent bookmark that will remain accessible via your account



Let me know if there's ever a tool to search HN limited to discussions I've interacted with in some way eg. submission/favorite/comment (public) or upvote. My interactions disappear quickly and are no help when trying to find that one relevant discussion to link.


The weird answer is that at least some of that functionality is already there. But the documentation and fine control of the search is lousy:

https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu...

There’s also an option in the search settings which is supposed to enable or disable whether usernames are relevant


Sorry for causing some confusion here; I understand I can search using Algolia's author: keyword within my own comments. I want to limit my searches to all comments by anyone within discussions that were interesting to me in any way.


That would be useful. I assume the feature doesn’t exist. You could ask for it, or maybe it’s possible to develop an external search site or tool that can do that.


If you Google search: "+password4321 site:news.ycombinator.com"

(Without quotes)

You'll be able to search things you responded to.


The major LLMs should be able to handle that.
