If you use the DAREBEE bookmarks feature to save workouts, challenges, and programs, this message is for you. We've retired the existing programming and replacing it with something better - a browser-based bookmark system that's faster, more private, and doesn't require an account.
Here's the honest version of why: the old system stored your lists on our server. As DAREBEE grew, thousands of people were building and managing multiple shortlists at once, and the server load became a lot. More than a lot, actually - we came dangerously close to the whole site going down. That's not a situation we can sustain, and keeping DAREBEE free and available for everyone has to come first.
The new system fixes this by keeping everything in your browser. Nothing is sent to our server - ever. No account is needed. Your bookmarks load instantly, and you own your data completely. You can back it up and restore it if you switch devices or browsers. It is, in almost every way, a better setup.
What's changing:
- No account required - your bookmarks live in your browser, not on our server
- Full backup and restore support if you switch devices or browsers
- Instant loading, no server round-trips
- Complete privacy - your data never leaves your device
We know change isn't always welcome, especially mid-training-plan. Thank you for bearing with us - and thank you for being part of DAREBEE.
