visited through google search
from there jumped to
err weird, both are displayed in google activity (online); but only first one is in Search/MyActivity.html takeout. But last on is in Chrome/MyActivity.html. Right.. so I guess Chrome/MyActivity is a bit more useful?…
ugh. whatever, just use them all, there is no downside.
### youtube watch history from takeout [[youtube]]
here is something for youtube
## use likes! [[twitter]] [[hpi]]
not sure what to do about dates.. support None for datetime??
## Slide database – visited posts? Same for hn [[reddit]] [[hpi]]
### `[2020-04-04]` right, SEEN database got some stuff /data/data/me.ccrama.redditslide/SEEN
## use my.pinboard [[hpi]] [[pinboard]]
## org context – need to strip away todo state changes… [[org]]
## `[2020-01-25]` import enki's wiki? [[exobrain]]
## android resquetime database? [[hpi]] [[rescuetime]]
## do I need to process org archive? [[org]]
## android search history? not sure if worth trouble… [[takeout]]
also wonder, maybe I should turn google search history off?
## `[2020-09-05]` hmm, firefox on android has 'combined' view?? [[firefox]]
right, it seems to group stuff
select date, url, title, history_guid from combined where history_id != -1 ORDER BY history_guid
## merge all of takeout histories? maybe as long it appears in both [[takeout]] [[hpi]]
## wow, there is more stuff in takeouts [[takeout]]
shit ok, takeouts are a decent way to preload it…

## google takeout – parse json instead?? [[hpi]] [[takeout]]
## think how should archives (zip/gz/etc) be handled…
## Guess time based on git blame
## multiple twitter accounts? [[twitter]]
## deliveroo orders
## stackexchange? reuse votes and favorites
## stackexchange gdpr has lots of visit data
### `[2020-12-04]` although it's over the whole domain, so not super useful
## right, I am not using chrome anymore, which means takeout history is less and less useful for me [[promnesia]] [[takeout]]
## use twidump as extra source?! [[promnesia]]
## figuring out history from window titles? [[promnesia]] [[arbtt]]
bit too excessive I guess… although nice correlating events to jump in history?
## extract 'regular' links from markdown [[promnesia]]
i.e. ones without http prefix
# \* ideas
## automatic interface [[hpi]] [[promnesia]]
- datetime
- url
- exclude Json (not sure how?)
- [ ] first go through some data sources and see how well it's gonna work
start with 'static' version
- datetime: figure out by annotations
TODO shit gonna be tricky with tz aware/unaware stuff
- url: figure out by 'url'/'href' attribute name (types don't seem to work?..)
then switch
- datetimes by isinstance
- url: dynamically by checking if 'http' or something in strings? but might be tricky
## would be interesting to unify [[webarchive]] [[promnesia]]
-
- was deleted, but I have some instapaper annotations
# \* extension issues/improvements
## clicking on # on a github page causes reloading highlights…
i guess just need to ignore explicitly for now
### `[2020-11-19]` eh. on the one hand, what else it should do? fragment could be anything
and also doesn't happen anywhere else
## improving highlights [[annotation]]
on this page, the whole body is highlighted because of 'How does it work?'
## extension: ok, highlight by source color in 'show visited' definitely makes sense! [[promnesia]]
## performance: pagination should be configurable, i.e. if you run locally you might not need it at all
## extract canonical from page url as well? not sure how to make it more friendly and responsive… [[cannon]]
### `[2019-08-31]` document.querySelector("link[rel='canonical']").href;
### `[2019-08-31]` Determining canonical url
sort of a standard is using link rel canonical tag.
### `[2019-09-03]` eh, it's a bit tricky because requires extra content script execution and merging. And in 99.99% cases it's gonna be same as canonified url?
this for example gives gaugesymmetry page as canonical
### `[2020-05-01]` maybe use it first? only then fallback on default algo. could make it configurable?
## trying to debug unresponsiveness after idling [[promnesia]]
- chrome.runtime.onSuspend.addListener – aaaah, ok seems that it's triggering (errors are logged to 'extensions' settings page, oddly)
function handleSuspend() {
console.error("Suspending event page");
// handle cleanup
}
chrome.runtime.onSuspend.addListener(handleSuspend);
- persistent: true – let's see
TODO wonder if it would also remove the need for bckg injector?
ok, almost def has to do with it!
## `[2020-11-18]` [All | Search powered by Algolia](https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&query=browsercompany&sort=byPopularity&type=all) [[promnesia]]

## try loading stuff earlier, while URL updates [[promnesia]]
I guess if notification off, it's not really a problem. just make sure it's caching and not querying too much
and test it too?
## bug: in chrome [[promnesia]]
open any site
open sidebar
press search
close search
icon goes to grey, showing 'no visits'
## bug: icon disappears on ctrl-t/close , but manual tab swtich with mouse is fine?? [[promnesia]]

doesn't work with readability extension?
add an explicit "refresh" button?
## bug: chrome: callbacks stop triggering after I reload the extension manually. ugh. Looks like due to the same callback hacking in background.js [[promnesia]]
### `[2019-09-09]` right, I guess that's because first page that's opened on chrome is optionspage…
maybe frontend pages need to 'ask' backend to register callbacks?…
## need to defensify everything [[toblog]] [[webext]]

having a pane like that but scroll synced to content in article would be ideal for me
## usability: perhaps easier with overlay in the middle of screen? then there are no issues with displaying…
## usability: expand all/collapse all
## usability: display summary of available contexts on top?
## display some sort of 'collapsed' dynamic summary with tags and timestamps only? maybe on the side, and you 'zoom' into it as you scroll
## bug: on 'cancel' after blacklist, still shows notification that it added [[promnesia]]

## bug: show visited mess with grasp?? (try selecting over these marks and capturing text) [[promnesia]]
## excludelist: www.site.com vs site.com [[promnesia]]
# \* github issues
## extension: would be cool to have an option to just 'find' empty space on screen to overlay… seems hard though [[ml]] [[think]]

## `[2019-07-15]` reddit definitely. Slightly harder to motivate backups [[reddit]]

for editor, could set it up as mime type? dunno.
### `[2020-05-30]` right. so I guess I know what to do
- During the indexing, detect either. If detected emacs:, then warn about deprecation and suggest to remove
Need to think how to accumulate indexing warnings and show in the end… but later I guess
If only old script detected, use emacs://, otherwise use editor://
- still can't use line=, col= because extension wouldn't support it. Or maybe it's fine actually!

## `[2020-05-16]` hmm, make sure visited marker/css is tweakable? I suppose it needs to be in the 'main', sidebar section. confusing…

proromnesia-visited::after {
content: "⚫XXXXX";
color: #FF4500;
vertical-align: super;
font-size: smaller;

# Hmm. Sending fragment can be unsafe?
I think this part is a little off:
> Perhaps you have no sympathy for web applications that store sensitive data in query strings, as that’s widely recognized as an insecure pattern. The URL fragment is more serious. That otherwise is a safe way to store sensitive information, so it’s alarming to see a third-party library sending a copy to an external server.
> Firefox Send and Mega.nz are both examples of popular web apps that use the URL fragment to store client-side encryption keys so that users can save end-to-end encrypted files to the cloud without the server ever having access to the underlying data.
The URL fragment is not designed to be any more secure than anything else in the URL, it's just a funny quirk of how web browsers evolved that it doesn't happen to be sent to the webserver. That popular platforms are (mis)using it to pass information without that information hitting their webservers is unfortunate. But it doesn't mean that the URL Fragment is somehow special or should be thought of as "secure" - that's not a guarantee that the URL scheme makes.
For example, those fragments will easily appear in browser history for anyone else who uses your same device...

I bumped on this post today while I was trying to find the solution for the org capture protocol. It's been a while since you posted it, but no one posted the solution, so I guess this might be helpful.
The thing is that any new protocol must be introduced by clicking on the link instead of passing the address to the location bar directly. Once you connect the new protocol with the app it will work regularly.
* Go to `about:config`
* Add new boolean named `network.protocol-handler.expose.tg` and set it to `false`
* Create the link by opening an empty tab and typing the following in the location bar
`data:text/html,Link`
* Click on Link and Firefox should ask you to choose the program
* Check the box in order to remember it for future use

I mean, even if I don't add the container to the hierarchy immediately, rendering (in particular, createElement) takes a bit
I guess it's not very reasonable to expect 10K items to render really really fast
1. Limit number of items returned from the backend? think about it later
2. Perhaps it's indeed better to delay it until opening the sidebar?

I fear they're going to force it as the release version while supporting just 1% of most used extensions, forgetting that it's a fat-tailed distribution. I use video background fix to play youtube with a minimized browser (no I don't want to use a separate app if I don't have to).

ok, keeping the items in memory was definitely a bad idea..
looks like the way to go is just running a server in parallel. the benefit is being able to run against the remote server, so not having to sync the links
- the database thing – better, but still kinda clunky to update etc
- also, we could optimize easier if it's not js, presumably some users might want to store a lot of links. Also more opportunity for interaction with FS and realtime watch
- also normalisation code doesn't have to be shared with JS

I'd say the biggest problem with something like this is that it's a silo. You're suddenly 100% reliant on them providing the right tools and functions to access your data in the way you want/need. And if your needs/preferences change, then you're entirely reliant on whether the silo has foreseen the new use case.
I already have an existing knowledge base (that not only consists of webpages, but also org files, videos, pdf's, etc.) that's accessible and synchronized across multiple devices - and while having a complete searchable history of all my browsing would be fantastic, there's no way to integrate it into my system (or any other system) with my own tools.

This. Susan Dumais at Microsoft had a project called "Stuff I've Seen" [1] in the early days of desktop search. In a nutshell, it's indexing and information retrieval on the data that you use in your daily life -- web browsing, calendar events, etc.
I've often thought about trying to re-implement some of their ideas with a local caching proxy or a browser extension. If there's an open source attempt at this already, I'd love to hear about it.

in js, it's very easy to swallow errors. at best it just stops code halfway and renders system weird (exceptions would only be visible in extensions logs which no user would look at)

I've wrapped everything in TODO defensify
