Have you tried pinboard? I loved delicious back in the day (when it had an impossible-to-remember chain of subdomains!) and pinboard gets as close to replicating that functionality as I've found. I'm still planning on writing my own client to resolve a few minor issues, but the api looks solid too.

I can recommend to use Pinboard with the archive option

That's what Pinboard is for.

Pinboard.in hands down. I've tried so many services but this one wins for me. Nice API too.
