Today, we're excited to announce the release of Linkwarden 2.13! 🥳 This update brings significant improvements and new features to enhance your experience.

For those who are new to Linkwarden, it’s basically a tool to collect, read, annotate, and fully preserve webpages, articles, and documents, all in one place. It’s great for bookmarking stuff to read later, and you can also share your resources, create public collections, and collaborate with your team. Linkwarden is available as a Cloud subscription or you can self-host it on your own server.

This release brings a range of updates to make your bookmarking and archiving experience even smoother. Let’s take a look:

What’s new:

🏷️ New Tag Management Page

We added a dedicated page where you can view, sort, add, bulk merge, and bulk delete you Tags, all in one place.

I love how active the development on Linkwarden is. I still have all of my stuff in wallabag, but Linkwarden is tempting. I gave the hosted trial a try a few weeks ago, but my wallabag export was too big to import. Maybe I'll try selfhosting it and manually increasing the max upload size this time.

    If I log into a paywalled site, can i read paywalled things later?

    Yes. It archives a copy of the page locally that you have access to forever.

    I’ve been looking for a way to self host a bookmark manager so I can sync bookmarks (favorites / links) across all devices. Sounds like Linkwarden might be overkill for me, but can it do that if I’m ok with overkill?

    Yep, that's exactly what this is for. You use Linkwarden to bookmark things, though -- it's not for your browser bookmarks. But there's a browser extension, so you're still just clicking one button to bookmark things. And you can export your browser bookmarks and then import them in Linkwarden.

    Can anyone help explain the use case for this? Why would someone want/need a dedicated app for bookmarks vs just using the built in browser bookmarking?

    I've always used Firefox but have never thought to myself that I needed bookmarks in a different app entirely. What am I missing?

  • This looks great! Yet another container for our poor home server.

    Nope, self-hosting is 100% free :)

    I can see from the screenshot they still haven’t fixed the title text being cut off in each bookmark.

    Hey there! The screenshot was cropped, not sure which part you're talking about

    Each bookmark card does not make enough room for the title of each bookmark, so they’re cut off with an ellipses at the end. The readability while looking over your bookmarks is pretty bad as a result. Like after a certain point that’s unavoidable, but it doesn’t help that the spacing and margins in each card are excessive.

    KaraKeep uses a similar card layout and handles it much better as a counter example.
