Rationale
DEVONthink is a comprehensive document and information management system that allows users to store, organize, and work with various types of information, including documents, PDFs, websites, images, and emails. It supports organizing data into databases and groups, adding tags, and cross-referencing. While it doesn't explicitly focus on 'URL curation' in the same minimalist web app sense as URList, it does handle web content and offers robust organization and annotation features. The 'URL Saving & Preview' and 'Instant Link Adding' features are covered by its ability to collect and work with 'websites' and 'web pages'. 'List & Section Organization' is covered by its database, group, and smart group features. 'Contextual Side Notes' is covered by its annotation capabilities. 'Media Type Support' is evident in its handling of various document types including PDFs, images, and web content. 'Sign-In & Authentication' is implied by user accounts and local storage/sync.
