There are so many out there, a few that I came across include:

Having a giant comparison table for this might be nice

I migrated all my Firefox bookmarks to a self-hosted Linkding instance. https://github.com/sissbruecker/linkding/ Lightweight and once you get a tagging methodology in place its super useful.

Hey :) would you kindly share your tagging methodology? It's the second time I nuke my linkding docker istance, because everytime it gets so messy that I lose sight of my bookmarks ://

Thank you 👐

I don't really have a "methodology" per se, I really just focus my tags on the terms I would use if I were to search online for the same thing, or even as a category to keep bookmarks for a specific topic organized. As an example, for all the web resources I may use when playing Star Citizen, I tag those web sites with #starcitizen, for sites that may have given me guidance on doing something on the linux cli, I tag it #linuxcli. I also really don't obsess over the "cleanliness" of the tags and such, but instead just use Linkding as a database that I can search. I'm not sure if this helps, but hopefully it does!
