Shiori

Most web links eventually break - the sobering statistic Shiori, a bookmark manager with archiving by default, is built on. Its answer is archiving by default - where possible, every bookmark you save gets a clean, readable offline copy parsed from the page, ads and navigation stripped, so the article survives even after the original URL dies. Conceived as a simple Pocket clone and written in Go, the entire server is a single binary using roughly 25-30 MB of RAM with SQLite out of the box (Postgres and MySQL supported) - genuinely the lightest archiving bookmark manager you can run. Saving is one click through the Firefox and Chrome extensions, and finding things again is where Shiori quietly outperforms its size: full-text search covers the archived page content, not just titles and tags, so you can find that article by a phrase you remember from paragraph six. Reader mode presents the cleaned text; archive mode shows the preserved page. It's dual-interface by design - a pretty web UI (installable as a PWA on mobile) and a complete CLI for terminal devotees - plus a REST API for scripting. Pocket imports work natively, and Netscape HTML handles browser imports and exports. Multi-user support included. MIT-licensed.

linkding

For people who found del.icio.us perfect and everything since bloated, linkding is the bookmark manager - a Django application whose entire design goal is saving and finding links with zero friction. Paste a URL and it fetches the title, description, favicon, and preview image automatically; organize with tags, search full-text across everything, mark bookmarks unread for read-it-later, attach Markdown notes, and bulk-edit whole selections at once. Its answer to link rot is archiving: bookmarked pages can be snapshotted automatically, either submitted to the Internet Archive or saved as local HTML files, and a documented SingleFile browser-extension integration uploads full self-contained page captures straight to your instance. Official Firefox and Chrome extensions (plus a bookmarklet) make saving a one-click habit, the UI installs as a Progressive Web App on mobile, and multi-user support with bookmark sharing - to users or logged-out guests - covers families and teams, with SSO via OIDC when needed. The REST API (create, search, filter by tag) has spawned a genuine ecosystem of community mobile apps and libraries. Operationally it is famously boring in the best way: one small container, SQLite by default, automated migrations, and a zero-breaking-changes policy. Import and export use standard Netscape HTML.
