Really happy to see an update to this. Shaarli is an alternative, but seems to have issues with the default Docker container.

However, I would be much happier with an ncurses-based and file-system database for a bookmark manager that uses Markdown front matter or even just a TOML file:

https://gohugo.io/content-management/front-matter/

Would be much easier to manage bookmarks and sync them in a directory-tree format. Hopefully something like this will get added eventually.

I'm envisioning something like,

  * bookmarks/
    * services/
      * google.md
      * favicons/

I've been doing this with directories/text files/a handful of shell functions for the last few years. It's not _great_, so I'd love if there was a better tool that supported a similar "storage backend". Being able to grep everything, sort by modtime, etc. is pretty nice.

How about a bookmarks manager that is also a git repo?

I had this for years, but recent security-changes to browsers make it not work:

https://github.com/skx/bookmarks.public

Will work if you move the bookmark data into the main script, but then it is less easy to maintain and less clear.

I've used Raindrop for a long time (https://raindrop.io) to store a bookmark of all articles I read, categorised in months. It's been interesting to see the variations in "slow" months and busier months. I can see that I'm desparate to read stuff when I'm bored for example.

The one thing missing in Shiori for me to replace it would be a share extension for mobile. I use several different browsers and also often read for mobile, where Raindrop can store the bookmark via the share sheet.

I was interested if others do similar things?
