## What it is
linkding is a self-hosted bookmark manager built with Django, designed to be minimal, fast, and easy to deploy via a single Docker container. It offers tagging, bulk editing, website archiving, multi-user sharing, browser extensions, and a REST API.

## Use cases
- self-host my bookmarks instead of using browser sync
- save and tag links with a clean minimal UI
- archive snapshots of bookmarked web pages
- import bookmarks from another service in Netscape HTML format
- add bookmarks from Firefox or Chrome via an extension
- share bookmarks with other users or guests
- run a lightweight bookmark service on a Raspberry Pi
- script bookmark management through a REST API

## When to choose
- you want a low-maintenance, single-container bookmark service with SQLite
- you value speed and a distraction-free reading-focused UI
- you need multi-user support with sharing and SSO via OIDC
- you want automatic metadata fetching and website archiving

## When to avoid
- you need a full read-it-later app with offline article rendering and highlighting
- you want social bookmarking features like public discovery or recommendations
- you prefer a managed cloud service without self-hosting
- you need heavy full-text search of page contents out of the box
