Good morning, afternoon, or evening;

I am looking for a self hosted solution for Bookmark backup and synchronization. I just spun up a docker container for Linkding; don’t get me wrong this is awesome, but it is missing some things I would like to see in a bookmark backup solution.

A few key things I am looking for:

  • Browser agnostic (at least firefox and chromium based browsers)
  • Automatic backup/synchronization
  • Integration with the browser’s built in bookmarks

Anyone have any suggestions?

I am looking to self host, and not looking for something like Xbrowsersync or Firefox Account syncing.

I am open to suggestions!

Thank you!

Not sure it’s worth the effort to recreate the wheel when Floccus is FOSS and uses your destination of choice.

If anything I’d throw up Nextcloud into docker and set that as the source for Floccus

I thought about trying to spin up a nextcloud instance, just haven’t taken the time to add that to my home lab.

It may not be worth that extra effort, but it would be a learning experience I am sure.

Longtime Linux user, but not an IT Guy/Programmer. Like the users above, I was able to setup Nextcloud and Floccus with minimal trouble and I hear its even easier with Docker. I recommend setting it up once to understand it better and make some mistakes, use it for a while, then make a clean install once you understand how you actually do use it.

I have a good chunk of my services running on my docker host. I may go the docker route as it’s the cleanest way of implementing it into my setup.

I think so farvi have 30 containers running at any given time.
