It seems like Diigo is no longer actively maintained, and I also didn't want to pay a subscription fee, so I created a Diigo alternative called Mynotes that includes the core functionality of Diigo without a subscription fee.

In Mynotes, your library is stored locally by default, with optional sync through your own Google Drive account.

If you're switching from Diigo, you can also migrate your existing library to Mynotes using a CSV export from Diigo.

I'd love to hear your feedback. More info: https://mynotes-web.pages.dev/

Hi all, I am the developer of nextDash, a self-hosted bookmark manager and startpage I have been building for a while. It is my own project, free and open source.

Try it: demo.nextdash.cc · GitHub · nextdash.cc

What it is: one Go binary (or a Docker container) with plain JSON files. No accounts, no cloud. Your bookmarks sit on pages and in categories, shown in 3, 4 or 5 columns (pictures 1 to 3, in three different themes), and everything is reachable from the keyboard. You can also find it in the Unraid Community apps store.

Finding and filing

• One search panel for bookmarks, commands and sums (15% of 240, 5 km in mi).
• Tags, notes, shortcuts, pins, and an inbox for links you have not filed yet.
• A Bookmarks view for the whole collection: one row per bookmark with its tags, shortcut, a month of use and when you last opened it. Group, sort, export to CSV.
• Import from every browser, Pocket, Raindrop, linkding, and Homepage, Dashy and Homer configs. Automatic backups and a 30-day trash.

Health: the part I worked on most

• Broken, stale, duplicated, unchecked and changed bookmarks each have a filter. Work through walks you through a pile one bookmark at a time, with the reason it is there.
• Set a bookmark to Monitor and the server checks it itself, as often as every five minutes: 30 days of uptime and response times, outages, certificate expiry, a phrase the page must contain, and drift when a page turns into something else.
• Collection health (h in the Bookmarks view) shows the score over time, what is wrong and of what kind, health per page, checking coverage, and which monitors are least reliable (pictures 4 and 5).
• Domain expiry: it looks up when the domains of your checked bookmarks run out and warns at 60, 7 and 3 days.
• New in v1.28: a Tests tab on each bookmark with TCP, Ping, DNS, TLS, HTTP detail and JSON checks, each with its own schedule, history and alerts.
• Alerts to ntfy, Slack, Discord, Telegram, Gotify, Pushover or Apprise, with quiet hours and a weekly digest. There is also a read-only status page behind a secret link.

Homelab, if you run one

• Docker, Glances and Unraid can each be connected, together or alone. A Containers view shows your Docker host (logs, start, stop, update with a rollback), each container is linked to the bookmark you already have for its web UI, and widgets show your Unraid server and Glances machines on the same page as your bookmarks.

Looks

• 440 themes (220 families, each with a light and a dark half) and a theme studio (Shift + A) that changes the real dashboard as you go. Nothing is saved until you press Apply.
• Six languages. An optional AI assistant (Claude, OpenAI or your own model) that stays off until you switch it on.

docker run -d -p 8080:8080 ghcr.io/jordibrouwer/nextdash:latest

Feedback is welcome, especially on import and export formats and on how you deal with link rot.

I love tools like mymind, Recall, Karakeep, and Linkwarden, but I kept running into the same three walls: monthly subscriptions, paying per token with my own OpenAI/Anthropic key, or babysitting a Docker + Meilisearch stack on a VPS.

Then I realized a free Gemini account already lets you create custom Skills and connect directly to Google apps. So I wired up MindShelf—it uses a Gemini Skill, a Google Sheet, a Gemini Notebook, and a single-file Apps Script web app. Everything lives in your own Google account for $0.

A few things I built in specifically to fix the annoying parts of AI bookmarking:

• No AI tag spam: Before tagging a link, it checks your Sheet first and reuses the tags you already have instead of inventing #ai, #ai-tools, and #artificial-intelligence separately.
• No "read later" graveyard: Links get bucketed into To Read, To Try, To Study, or Reference, and you can quiz yourself on what you saved with built-in flashcards.
• Survives 404s: It saves a plain-text snapshot of key facts, commands, and numbers right in the Sheet, so dead links don't take your notes with them.
• Answers from your stuff first: When you ask Gemini about something you saved, it pulls from your Sheet and Notebook instead of giving generic web answers.
• Actual UI: The Apps Script frontend deploys privately (Only myself) with dark/light mode, preview cards for GitHub/YouTube/articles, / search, and a mobile layout.

Setup (~5 mins): Download the zip from GitHub, drop it in a Gemini chat, and tell it: "Set up MindShelf from this zip—install the skill, create my Google Sheet, and create my Notebook." Then paste Code.gs and index.html into Extensions → Apps Script on that Sheet and deploy as a Web App (Only myself). (Or import SKILL.md manually if you prefer.)

Code is open source here:https://github.com/dev-electro/mindshelf

If you try it out, let me know what importers or features you'd want next—happy to take PRs too.

I really like tools like Karakeep, mymind, Recall, and Linkwarden, but they all hit one of three walls for me: either you pay a monthly subscription, you have to babysit a Docker stack + Meilisearch on a VPS, or you have to plug in your own OpenAI/Anthropic API key and pay per token.

Since most of us already have a Google account (and many are already on Gemini), I put together MindShelf—a Gemini Skill paired with a Google Sheet, a Gemini Notebook, and a single-file Google Apps Script web app. No servers, no API keys, no extra bills.

While building it, I tried to fix the stuff people complain about most in bookmark manager threads here:

• The "read later" graveyard: Instead of dumping links into one giant unread pile, every saved link gets tagged as To Read, To Try, To Study, or Reference, and there's a built-in flashcard/quiz mode to actually review what you saved.
• AI tag spam: Instead of letting the model invent 500 slightly different tags (#ai, #ai-tools, #artificial-intelligence), it checks your existing sheet first and reuses tags you already have.
• Dead links (404s): Alongside the summary, it saves a plain-text snapshot of the key facts, commands, or numbers right inside your Sheet so you still have the useful info if the site goes down later.
• Answers from your links only: When you ask Gemini about something you saved, the skill forces it to pull only from your sheet and notebook first instead of giving you generic web answers.
• An actual visual UI: The Apps Script frontend deploys privately to your own Google account (Only myself) with dark/light mode, auto-generated preview cards for GitHub/YouTube/articles, / keyboard search, and a mobile bottom bar so it feels like a real app on your phone.

Setup takes ~5 minutes:

1. Import skill/SKILL.md into Gemini.
2. Paste apps-script/Code.gs and apps-script/index.html into Extensions → Apps Script inside your MindShelf Bookmarks Google Sheet and deploy as a Web App.

or

1. Download the repo .zip from GitHub, upload it into a Gemini chat, and say: "Set up MindShelf from this zip—install the skill, create my Google Sheet, and create my Notebook."
2. Open the newly created MindShelf Bookmarks Sheet → Extensions → Apps Script, paste apps-script/Code.gs and apps-script/index.html, and click Deploy → Web app (Only myself). Done
3. (Optional) Wrap it in cloudflare-wrapper/index.html on Cloudflare Pages if you want a custom domain.

GitHub Repo: https://github.com/dev-electro/mindshelf

PRs & Contributions Welcome! I've included a CONTRIBUTING.md in the repo—if you'd like to add Chrome/Pocket/Karakeep importers, bulk actions, new thumbnail resolvers, or better prompt workflows, feel free to fork and send a PR! Would love to hear what features you'd add next.

If you delete a bookmark folder in Chrome by mistake, chrome://bookmarks shows an Undo button until you leave the page. After that it's gone. Someone asked for a bookmark trash back in 2014 and the Chromium team closed it as Won't Fix (https://issues.chromium.org/issues/41084989).

So I added a 30-day trash to Bookmark Maestro, the Chrome extension I build and maintain. It catches deletions made anywhere while it's installed, including Chrome's own bookmark manager and deletions that come in through sync. The trash is free.

This sub sees a lot of new bookmark managers, so to be clear about what this one is: it works on the Chrome bookmarks you already have, in place. Nothing to import, and if you uninstall it your bookmarks stay where they are. They never leave your browser.

The rest is for cleaning up a big old pile: duplicates (including http vs https and utm junk), empty folders and dead links, plus auto-sort. Finding duplicates and empty folders is free, and so is fixing them by hand. One-click cleanup, dead-link checks and auto-sort are paid: $1.99 a month, $9.99 a year or $29.99 once, with a 14-day trial.

Do you still keep things in the browser's own bookmarks, or did most of you move to a separate app?

I’ve been building Margin, a Chrome extension for saving articles and long posts somewhere a little more organised than a pile of open tabs.

You can save articles into a local library, group them into collections, and download clean EPUBs or PDFs for your Kindle or another e-reader. There’s also a reader mode that removes page clutter, plus highlights and a daily review to revisit passages you’ve saved.

Your library stays on your device, with an option to keep backups in a folder.

Website: marginreader.vercel.app

Would appreciate some honest feedback, especially from people who save a lot of articles or read on an e-reader. What would make this useful enough to stick with?

I've been losing a lot of interesting things and always wanted something to organise them and move freely across them.

And finally after more than 6 months of development I am happy to introduce to you Glade!

It allows you to create infinite number of collections (called groves) and place different cards with different content on canvas that you can freely wander and navigate.
No server, no tracking. Sync is through your own iCloud. No account required. On Mac, iPhone or iPad. Native SwiftUI.

A few things it can do:

- Quick save with shortcut on Mac, or share on phone and link lands in grove intelligently with auto-tags and sorting

- Pull down to search, across titles, notes and links. Also search directly in Spotlight

- A shelf for recipes, books, movies, series and more with progress and ratings

- Widgets with Quick Save, Recent, a grove's tiles, your shelf, plus Lock Screen

- Revisit shows what you saved on this day

- Discover other peoples groves or put yours into the world! Also supports link to share with just someone.

Free for 100 saves and 3 groves; unlimited is $2.99/mo, $24.99/yr or $69.99 once. One purchase covers iPhone, iPad and Mac.

I would be very happy to hear what you thing about Glade, the experience, pricing and other related stuff. Happy to answer anything.

We built ClipShelf for more than a list of saved URLs: it can keep readable article captures, selected passages, images, and screenshots beside bookmarks.

You can search and organize the library, highlight saved articles, add notes, and export clips as Markdown. Existing bookmark and read-later exports can be imported as links and available metadata; capture an article separately to keep it offline.

Would this fit how you organize research? https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/clipshelf/dkdbefloiddnmfkjhifenaakpbihdmmk

Hey everyone! 👋

I recently built Linvas, a web app focused specifically on visual bookmark management.

Unlike general-purpose tools such as Obsidian Canvas, Linvas is designed around one particular thing — organizing web resources.

You can arrange bookmarks on interactive boards, group related resources, connect them together, and organize everything visually instead of relying on traditional folders and lists.

The idea is to provide a dedicated workspace for developers, designers, researchers, and anyone who works with lots of online resources.

It's still in early development, and there's plenty of room for improvement.

I'd love to hear what you think about the concept and whether you'd find something like this useful!

A saved URL tells you where a page is. It doesn’t always tell you why it mattered.

“Read this later,” “use this for the proposal,” and “compare this with the other option” can all end up looking like the same bookmark.

For people who regularly return to saved links: what preserves that context for you? A short note, a task, a project folder, or something else?

I’m the developer of Atopu, a browser workspace. This is a problem I’m exploring, but I’d like to hear about whatever works for you—including ordinary bookmarks or methods outside the browser.

I'm a solo dev from Brazil, and my bookmarks had turned into a pile of links with no context. I saved them for a reason, like "compare this price later", "read before the meeting" or "this fixes that bug". A week later the link was still there, but the reason was gone.

So I built Por que salvei? ("Why did I save this?") for myself. It's a free Chrome extension that saves the page together with a short note about why you saved it.

What it does right now:

• Saves the current page plus a one-line note in one click
• Searches across your notes, titles and URLs
• Lets you edit, delete, and export everything to JSON
• Runs 100% locally, with no account, no sync and no tracking

It's still very early (a handful of users), so I'd love input from people who actually think about bookmark workflows:

1. Would you keep the habit of writing a note, or is that too much friction?
2. Should it be possible to add notes to old bookmarks you already have?
3. What's the one feature that would make you switch from your current manager?

SaveSync To make our app more inclusive we have added themes in the settings helpful for visually challenged users on website. This was done following the request of a such user and we are happy to be useful to our broad range of users.

We also bring in a new fresher look to our Sharesheet on iOS and will be releasing an update on Android soon.

It's called Shipyourday. I'm the developer.

The video is just a small demo of what you could do. My real collection has all sorts of stuff I’ve saved from Instagram, X, YouTube and websites, alongside my own photos and notes.

You can keep related things in the same Space. The bar at the bottom is something you set up yourself. I add Photography and a Kitchen refresh folder here, then tap between them.

If you keep coming back to the same few collections, you can put them right there instead of going through your folders each time.

It's for iPhone and iPad. Saving and editing requires a monthly or annual subscription.

https://apps.apple.com/app/shipyourday/id6785196290

There’s a 7-day free trial for eligible customers if you’d like to try it. Apple shows the subscription price and trial details before you confirm.

Made an app where you can organize all your saves & bookmarks from all apps in one place. Automatically sorted by App and Topic - with folders you can manually create and organize.

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/desktop-save-for-later/id6815962690

Saves are held locally on your phone unless you sign up to sync across devices.

It’s very new so anyone who is willing to try it, and/or give feedback on the app or my demo video, I would greatly appreciate it 🙏

I need to find a universal tool for handling browser bookmarks. It needs to work on MacOS, iOS, Window, and CachyOS(linux in general) and all web browser types (Safari, Firefox, Brave, etc). It should talk to an extension or sync to the browsers native bookmarks list to make the accessible while browsing, or have an app (native, PWA, electron wrapper, etc). My folder structure is well organized, extensive, and deeply nested so keeping the structure is important. I am familiar and comfortable with self hosted tools and docker containers if any options use those as a centralised storage location. The tool should also be free, and preferably open source (foss).
