Has anyone gone through the effort of checking out all available bookmark solutions and found a clear winner?

There are a ton of selfhosted bookmark syncing and managing solutions.
In addition to github.com/awesome-selfhosted/awesome-selfhosted#… I found these:

I’m sure there are a ton more out there.

Basically all I want is to sync and somewhat categorize/tag bookmarks across my devices. Website archival, sharing and multi-user support is optional.

Going by GitHub stars I guess using Floccus with LinkWarden or Karakeep is the way to go?

I never felt the need. What does such a solution actually do?

non_burglar@lemmy.world on 15 Apr 13:27 collapse

For me, the idea is tonsync bookmarks between devices.

Zwuzelmaus@feddit.org on 15 Apr 15:17 collapse

Right into the browsers? Into all browsers on all devices?

Mozilla browser sync

Self-hostable if you want

mozilla-services.github.io/syncstorage-rs/

This still relies on Mozilla’s login servers, so not fully selfhosted unfortunately.

It seems like you can selfhost the whole FxA stack in theory, but I haven’t found much documentation for it.

Yeah, “make a 100% selfhost mozilla sync” is about number 12 on my long list of cool tech projects I swear I am going to get to.

EDIT: But seriously in terms of low effort and high security (due to E2E and relatively high number of eyes on Mozilla sources) it hits the sweet spot for me. Even though yes Mozilla and its advertisers know when and from what IP addresses I login to Mozilla services.

Slightly different function, but I use KaraKeep for managing bookmarks and I never use bookmarks in my actual browser.

The winner by far is Gnu Emacs

nymnympseudonym@piefed.social on 15 Apr 12:15 collapse

Think of the children. Use vim.

What have you got against terminal95 and pine?

Lol! I love it! Is there a docker compose file for it?

Been using linkwarden with floccus. LW has an android app now too. I haven’t really tried anything else and floccus could use some improvements but seems to work for me.

Mora@pawb.social on 15 Apr 13:26 next collapse

I personally like Karakeep with Floccus a lot

born_slippy@lemmy.world on 15 Apr 13:41 next collapse

Linkwarden looks slick and has some cool features, but was really more than I needed (and used more resources than I wanted my bookmark solution to).

I landed on Linkding, which is not as fancy as some other options but does everything I need it to.

irmadlad@lemmy.world on 15 Apr 14:55 next collapse

I’ve been using LinkWarden for a long time now. I also use Readeck for ‘read it later’ kind of data but it could be used to bookmark. I use Karakeep for archiving. I have not tried Betula, Linkwallet, Nextcloud Bookmarks, Postmarks, or xBrowserSync.

I’ve been using Zotero as my bookmark solution and it’s been amazing. I have not setup sync across different devices (or figured out how that would work), but being able to snapshot and page in time and have it forever has been a life saver.

Brewchin@lemmy.world on 15 Apr 20:16 collapse

I’ve been using Wallabag for years, after leaving Pocket, then just sharing links between devices using browser bookmarks or sync, and trying another solution that was shiny but lacking (can’t recall the name).

Wallabag has extensions for most browsers, apps for iOS and Android (that hook into the “Share with…” functionality), and runs in a low-resource Docker container. The web UI isn’t pretty, but it’s functional.

I have SWAG+Authelia (another Docker stack) and Cloudflare sitting in front of it, so has all the SSL and MFA needed.
