It was a surprise when I installed Linkwarden last night, imported over 4000 bookmarks collected over >20 years and then discovered this morning that there were (and growing) 12 GB of data on my Truenas. This explains why my VM crashed last night and ran out of space. It looks like the default setting creats and image, a PDF and an HTML version of every single page 12GB/4000=3MB each sounds about right, although we’ll see when/where this stops. So this was the first thing that put me off. Here are a few others:
a) unless I’ve missed it, there is nothing to capture duplicate links
b) nothing to capture/report dead links.
c) the two droid apps (LinkDroid, LinkGuardian) either don’t connect to my server (the latter) or simply seem too simple to be of good use on the phone. LinkDroid is proposing all the “collections”/folders in a drop down menu and I have many folders in the 4000 bookmarks so it difficult to scroll on a screen when saving a link.
d) The linkwarden firefox extension only allows you to capture links rather than integrate with the browser and substitute the browsers link management process.
Ultimately, it looks more like Wallabag, that i’ve been using for some time now. Whereas, I was expecting more a tool to actually manage the huge link repository I have.

… your nas only had 12gb of storage??
Well no. Initially i had the storage set on the VM where its running. I wasn’t expecting it to download all that data.
Sounds like you bookmarked the whole flippin’ Internet.
4000 bookmarks is nothing, neither is 12gb. I seriously don’t understand how anyone could think even jokingly saying that’s “the whole internet”.
Mate, it was a sarcastic statement 😉
Use floccus to sync bookmarks so they’re more integrated.
This is a good comment! I just discovered after your comment that floccus has a setting to link up with Linkwarden so that together, they achieve most of my desired outcomes. It just becomes more i volved in the managemente as you no end up with two components to manage rather than one ;-)
I was using floccus, but what is the point of saving bookmarks twice, once in linkwarden and once in browser
Have you informed the elders of the internet about this?
Linkwarden stickin’ it to the man. 😁
Nice, I’m gonna try that. I use SingleFile.
