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…

  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. ↩︎

      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.

        Doesn’t Linkwarden play the role of the bookmarks manager? Doesn’t/can’t it save all that’s bookmarked in it?

          Sure, maybe that’s the intended purpose/workflow. I feel like back when I tried it there was something about the general workflow that I didn’t like, but honestly it could have just been something as simple as me and an “old habits die hard” sort of thing, lol. I’m honestly so engrained in the 'bookmark this for saving and the built-in cross-computer sync will make it available in a specific spot on each of the 3-4 PC’s I use all the time" that it could have just been that for me ¯_(ツ)_/¯

            Makes sense. I currently have ArchiveBox setup but it doesn’t automatically save anything. I was thinking about getting it to save bookmarks. I guess I’ll setup Linkwarden to try out the workflow too.

            One more Q - is your ArchiveBox setup able to save pages that require login? E.g. paywalled news articles that you have subscriptions for, some other stuff behind auth?

              Nope it is not…if I’m completely honest my archivebox instance feels like it could tip over and die if I go tweaking much stuff at any given time lol, but as long as it’s running and I don’t touch it it seems to run well.

              My workflow might be sort of stupid lol but 98% of what I bookmark is more just for professional documentation or tutorials or personal research or handy links or etc. that I’ve come across. In other words, rarely locked behind login, and rarely critical. Half the time it’s helpful when sites go offline, but honestly half the time it just functions as if I ever Google search an issue I know I’ve seen before but can’t remember how to fix, then if I see a page I land on bookmarked already then I know it was a good help to me in the past…that sort of thing. Nothing crazy and I’m sure there are better processes out there, but it’s just a basic and simple process that works for me.
