⚡️⚡️⚡️Self-hosted collaborative bookmark manager to collect, organize, and preserve webpages and articles. - linkwarden/linkwarden
Hello everybody, Daniel here!
We're excited to be back with some new updates that we believe the community will love!
As always before we start, we’d like to express our sincere thanks to all of our Cloud subscription users. Your support is crucial to our growth and allows us to continue improving. Thank you for being such an important part of our journey. 🚀
What's New?
🛠️ Code Refactoring and Optimization
The first thing you'll notice here is that Linkwarden is now faster and more efficient.[^1] And also the data now loads a skeleton placeholder while fetching the data instead of saying "you have no links", making the app feel more responsive.
🌐 Added More Translations
Thanks to the collaborators, we've added Chinese and French translations to Linkwarden. If you'd like to help us translate Linkwarden into your language, check out #216.
✅ And more...
Check out the full changelog below.

[^1]: This took a lot more work than it should have since we had to refactor the whole server-side state management to use react-query instead of Zustand.
I set up LinkWarden about a month ago for the first time and have been enjoying it. Thank you!
I do have some feature requests -- is GitHub the best place to submit those?
Glad you like it! Yes GitHub is the place the community requests new features/enhancements.
Has anyone compared its page archiving feature to ArchiveBox?
I haven’t used archivebox, but I tried setting it up. And I will say linkwarden gets a lot of points for easy setup and use. I’m sure it’s probably not as powerful as archive box but it gets the job done for basic use.
Archivebox gets my vote, only because despite how much I'd love to switch to Linkwarden there seems to be no viable way to schedule importing of something like bookmarks. With Archivebox, I can relatively easily set it up such that every night any new bookmarks I've added automagically get archived. This is works perfectly for my use case. I put a LW GitHub issue/request in for something similar a long while back but didn't get any responses so I'm guessing that's just not a priority...which is totally fine, it definitely seems to be great software if it fits your use case :)
LW definitely wins in the initial setup department without a doubt - I noticed that for the ~30 min or so I played around with it.
All self-hostable software should do single sign-on the way Linkwarden does.
If you are wondering whether or how to support OIDC or SAML or other SSO, look no further for inspiration.
Can you give the gist of it?
It’s really well documented and easy to config. You just open the page for your IDP, follow the instructions, set a few config setting and you’re off.
The user interface is also really good at this. Often custom identity providers feel hacked on, here it’s integrated really well.
I believe the implementation is based on nextauth.js
Question I’ve been meaning to ask: if I start with cloud can I move to self-hosted later? I’ve seen this before and it feels like a product I could make good use of, especially for getting tabs closed.
Yes, you can export your data pretty easily in settings.
How have I never heard of this before!? I've been looking for exactly this for ages now.
Already spinning up a docker container!
Can this seamlessly replace my Safari Read Later?
It depends on what you mean by seamlessly. I have the Safari bookmarklet menu thingy on iOS and it works great.
Just wanted to say thanks for some awesome software! I want to say I use it for centralizing my bookmarks across devices, but if I'm being honest it's main use has been bookmarking Microsoft Learn articles. It's insanely useful being able to save an article, add tags, then when MS changes their docs, I can prove to myself that it really was different last week.
I’m using it 99% for recipes. But, I haven’t lost a recipe since I started using it!
Prefer linkding due to its straightforward setup (no complicated seperate database) but glad Linkwarden is doing well
I like linkding alot for it's simplicity, but can't the hell of me make a good/clean instance... It gets messy very quickly if you save some interesting links which are not directly connected to something or if you have 2 different subjects in the same instance.
Something like group tagging would make alot of sense :/
Looking forward to this new build. Since the last update, none of my links generate Preserved Formats, which makes the service useless. Hopefully, this is fixed.
Strange, could you please open an issue on GitHub if the problem persisted?
I will try, but on a whim I just created a new user in linkwarden and that seems to be generating my selected profiles. I'll wait until I can try 2.7.x before I gather data for a report.
Is there any plans on native mobile app? I am allergic to PWAs. Overall, good job!
I thought the whole point was it for to be compatible with Bitwarden and their apps and extensionssorry I was thinking of Vaultwarden 🤦🏾
But..does it still just save a big cookie popup?
Another great release 🥳🥳
Thanks! :)
I've been waiting for "Create common.json" and "refactor collection store"!
@daniel31x13@lemmy.world It's been a while since I played around with Linkwarden, so I figured I'd re-trial/subscribe to the cloud version to see what's changed. After logging in and entering my payment info, I'm immediately thrown to this screen regardless of what platform (desktop/mobile), browser (Chrome/FF), mode (normal/incognito with no extra extensions), or public IP (work, home, Verizon LTE) I use. Can you help please? I'm pretty sure I trial'ed the cloud version way back when I first played with it; is it because I used the same login this time? Bottom line I guess is I definitely don't want to end up paying for something that I can't even log into let alone cancel my account. Thoughts?
Thanks for your work! I moved when I could finally import Wallabag bookmarks, and I'm loving everything so far.
I need to try this, it looks great!
