Looking for a link archiving tool to save links that i have no intention of viewing anytime soon. it needs to be able to sort bookmarks by folders and sub-folders, tags are just not my thing. It doesn't have to be anything crazy but it needs to be offline first and have the ability to export bookmarks in a readable format

Part of it is that i have limited storage in terms of what i can archive, so the next best thing is save the links to YT and websites. If they are gone in the future, it is what it is. I also want my browser bookmark manager to be clutter free without the pressure of removing bookmarks all the time.

Also, i don't want to use any note talking apps, there are too many links and it just defeat the point of the app.

I use a mix of readeck and browsertrix.

Readeck is more of a link archiver and manager, does not archive comprehensively but is good enough for most pages: https://readeck.org/en/

Browsertrix is much more comprehensive but not really a read for later or link manager software. It’s primarily intended for site archiving ad hoc or on a cadence. I believe requires k8s for deployment, which was ok for me: https://webrecorder.net/browsertrix/

Both are better for different use cases so therefore I use both.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
