I am looking for a self hosted bookmark manager. Does anyone have any experience to share?
Ideally I’d like:
Linkwarden, Karakeep, Nextcloud/bookmarks seems to be the main ones.
Tried them all, settled on Linkding too. The UI is simple and clean.
I use Nextcloud’s bookmarks plugin and sync it to librewolf with floccus. On graphene I install the Nextcloud bookmarks app since floccus isn’t available for ironfox
Floccus is its own standalone app on Android.
It never worked well for me (syncing issues constantly), which is why I do not use it on graphene
I use linkwarden. Pretty easy to setup with docker and run behind a reverse proxy (you could probably do tailscale if that’s your thing). I have it setup with a few RSS feeds to download blog updates and it seems to work well. I didn’t configure it to use a local LLM so I have to manually organize my bookmarks. Usually I do that in bulk once every few weeks. I’m happy with it.
I would recommend Floccus.
I tried Linkwarden and others, ultimately didn’t want to consume half a gig of ram for this when all I need it simple bookmarks. I sync through WebDAV and use the addons in all my browsers and the app on Android. Works great.
Exactly my story. Putting stuff into and getting it back out of Linkwarden was way too cumbersome, even with the FF addon installed. I want to just Control + D/B to throw something inside / get something out of my bookmarks. Linmwarden’s preservation of content is nice and all, but I found I rarely if ever needed that functionality.
Shaarli, foss, lots of integration, written in php, human developed, public lists, users, etc.
Not recommended as it will be a constant maintenance and upgrade cycle to keep it working with Firefox but you can actually setup your own Firefox server stack (not just sync, but profiles and account everything):

I’ve heard a lot of good regarding linkwarden.
I use Karakeep with Floccus and it works really nice.
I recently went on the same journey and decided on Floccus on WebDAV. All I wanted was a straightforward way to share my bookmarks across devices, not be locked into anything, and not have a ton of features I’d never use. Since I already had WebDAV set up, it was just a matter of installing clients.
dieTasse@feddit.org 21 hours ago I tried Floccus and Linkwarden. Floccus was better way of handling bookmarks but it was not reliable between my 4 browsers. Linkwarden is something different than what I was used to but I like it, I like lots of space for descriptons and i like how it can preserve content with e.g. screenshot.
crunchpaste@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 hours ago I like to use readeck. But that is mostly a read later thing, i think.
They get some bonus points for this in their FAQ for sure!
Is there a Readeck twitter account?
There isn’t but you can follow @readeck@mastodon.online on Mastodon.
Is the a Readeck Discord server?
There isn’t but you can join #readeck:matrix.org on Matrix.

jlow@discuss.tchncs.de 13 hours ago Shit, looks like they went all in on vibeslopping, time to look for something new
jlow@discuss.tchncs.de 13 hours ago Floccus seems slop as well Readeck and shiori look good at first glance
I just migrated linkwarden to karakeep, because with linkwarden I couldn’t make it archive certain bot protected websites.

I tried Floccus, Linkwarden and Karakeep but ultimately settled on Linkding as it gave me the least trouble and is the only one with a browser extension that allowed me to add tags while saving a bookmark rather than having to go back in and add them after the fact.

I’ve been using linkding for years. It’s simple and awesome.

Linkwarden has tagging while adding.

How active is development of Linkding? Seems there hasn’t been a commit in 2 months or so.
While I wouldn’t expose such a service to the internet it’s still a but worrying with the amount of CVEs coming out. Like these that haven’t been addressed github.com/sissbruecker/linkding/issues/1527, github.com/sissbruecker/linkding/issues/1518
