Archivebox gets my vote, only because despite how much Iâd love to switch to Linkwarden there seems to be no viable way to schedule importing of something like bookmarks. With Archivebox, I can relatively easily set it up such that every night any new bookmarks Iâve added automagically get archived. This is works perfectly for my use case. I put a LW GitHub issue/request in for something similar a long while back but didnât get any responses so Iâm guessing thatâs just not a priorityâŚwhich is totally fine, it definitely seems to be great software if it fits your use case :)

Has anyone compared its page archiving feature to ArchiveBox?

Doesnât Linkwarden play the role of the bookmarks manager? Doesnât/canât it save all thatâs bookmarked in it?

Sure, maybe thatâs the intended purpose/workflow. I feel like back when I tried it there was something about the general workflow that I didnât like, but honestly it could have just been something as simple as me and an âold habits die hardâ sort of thing, lol.

One more Q - is your ArchiveBox setup able to save pages that require login? E.g. paywalled news articles that you have subscriptions for, some other stuff behind auth?

Makes sense. I currently have ArchiveBox setup but it doesnât automatically save anything. I was thinking about getting it to save bookmarks. I guess Iâll setup Linkwarden to try out the workflow too.

I havenât used archivebox, but I tried setting it up. And I will say linkwarden gets a lot of points for easy setup in use. Iâm sure itâs probably not as powerful as archive box but it gets the job done for basic use.
