I am looking for a self hosted bookmark manager. Does anyone have any experience to share?
Ideally I’d like:
- Self hosted with FOSS license
- Firefox integration (ideally on android, too)
- ideally no AI features or at least opt-in
- ideally human driven development (as little AI code as possible)
Linkwarden, Karakeep, Nextcloud/bookmarks seems to be the main ones.


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 bit worrying with the amount of CVEs coming out. Like these that haven’t been addressed https://github.com/sissbruecker/linkding/issues/1527, https://github.com/sissbruecker/linkding/issues/1518
