A bookmark manager that keeps things: links, notes and images with a full copy of every page.
Bookmarks, fast and without the extras: save, tag, find again.
Linkding does one thing: collect addresses and find them again. No preview images, no recommendations, no timeline — a list, a search box, tags.
The interface loads in a fraction of a second even with ten thousand entries, and the browser add-on saves with one click.
Good to know before the first start. You create the first account at startup and become the administrator. Bring your existing bookmarks along as the HTML file your browser exports.
Readeck accepts the Pinboard JSON backup directly. Linkding and ArchiveBox read bookmarks in the HTML format that browsers export.

No. No server, no Docker, no terminal commands. You click start and Linkding runs. Updates are tested on our own instances first and then rolled out.
In your own Linkding instance on servers in Germany and France; bulk storage sits in Frankfurt. Add your own S3 bucket and we back up there daily, encrypted.
Linkding is open source and keeps running on your own server. You fetch the files over a time-limited SFTP access and reach the database with the credentials from the dashboard.
