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.
It’s got a great extension “Linkding injector” that adds saved bookmarks to the major search engines if they have keyword matches too, which helps with finding out you’ve already got something bookmarked but forgot!
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
Thing is with those generic vulnerability scan issues, it might be fine if they don’t use brotli or dns or whatever is vulnerable or don’t expose it in a way it can be accessed. I’ve seen maintainers push back against unneeded hurry up busy work, but I also can’t be arsed to check if they’re relevant since idk the code base or how it’s used.
It does get maintenance when needed, but dev is slower since it’s basically done. It works and hasn’t ever given me trouble. I also have it exposed behind Authentik, so I guess the security issues matter much less too.
I’m able to use an iOS shortcut to save links and the desktop extension with SSO Authentik login in the way, so overall I’m pretty chuffed
