linkwarden VS ArchiveBox

Try Linkwarden - https://linkwarden.app

- Preserve bookmarks by capturing a screenshot of the saved page.

- Open-source and fully self-hostable.

- Support for collaborative bookmarking.

P.S. I’m the maintainer of the project.

This is one of the main reasons I created Linkwarden - an open-source collaborative bookmark manager to collect, organize and preserve webpages:

It looks very appealing, but I haven’t had a chance to try it myself just yet.

Great timing! Check this tool out: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36942308

Linkwarden is a fully self-hostable, open-source collaborative bookmark manager to collect, organize and archive webpages.

Linkwarden was built using TypeScript and NextJS, backed by a PostgreSQL database for the lighter-weight data. The rest of the data can be chosen either to be stored on the filesystem, or stored on the cloud on Digital Ocean Space/AWS S3, the reason for the cloud storage solution was for the Cloud offering [1], we realized that the preserved webpages (archives) take up space pretty quickly and S3 was much more efficient for this task. On the front-end we used TailwindCSS for styling and Zustand for state management.

You could either use our Cloud offering (with 14-day free trial) to directly support this project and experience Linkwarden, or you could self-host it on your own machine and have maximum flexibility.

Also please make sure to visit/star our GitHub repo [2].

Feel free if you had any questions, we'll do our best to answer it.

Two projects I greatly appreciate, allowing me to easily archive my bandcamp and GOG purchases (after the initial setup anyways):

https://github.com/easlice/bandcamp-downloader

https://github.com/Kalanyr/gogrepoc

And I recently learned about archivebox, which I think is going to be a fast favorite and finally let me clear out my mess of tabs/bookmarks: https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox

If you really want to save the content for yourself, use something like https://archivebox.io/

I've been running a local instance for a few years now and download/save tech articles all time. I can search and find them as needed.

API is coming soon (relatively, it's still a one-man project)! Stay tuned https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/issues/496

I have an event-sourcing refactor in progress now to allow us to pluginize functionality like the API (similar to Home Assistant with a plugin app sotre), it will take a month or two. Next up is the REST API using the new plugin system.

I guess your best chance is to use something like https://archivebox.io/.

Yeah this is a cool project but it was discussed 2 days ago.

As mentioned by the maintainer there, they even maintain a list of alternatives, very classy:
