      Memex vs Diigo opinions
      Almost everyone thinks Memex is a great alternative to Diigo.
      CaptainFuture Because Memex annotation and search features are completely free for private use (as opposed to lifetime 100 in Diigo). Also, the annotations have a much better UX than Diigo. No other Annotation tool exists that allows users to create unlimited free annotations, and protects their privacy through offline-first approaches.

      It is an open source software for highlighing, commenting and discussion. All the annotations can be freely shared. This comes in handy when reading research articles online. Diigo's highlight feature is good but is limited in number in the free version
