Greetings everyone! Daniel here, I’ve been working on Linkwarden part-time over the past few months.
Linkwarden is a self-hosted, open-source collaborative bookmark manager to collect, organize and archive webpages.
Key features:
- 📸 Preserve webpages as Screenshot, PDF, etc. So you can access them even if they are taken down.
- 👥 Collaborative, so you can share your collections with your friends and colleagues. You can also make them public and share them with the world.
- 📱 Designed for every screen size, from widescreen monitors down to smartphones.
- ⚡️ Open source and fully self-hostable!
- ✨ And so many more features! (Literally, just didn’t want to make this post too long. Check out the Github repo and Website for more info…)
If you like what we’re doing, you can support the project by either starring ⭐️ the repo to make it more visible to others or by subscribing to the Cloud plan (which helps the project, a lot).
Things like mobile app (PWA) are already on the project roadmap and I’m so excited to share them with you in the future.
Feedback is always welcome, so feel free to share your thoughts!

Matrix is cool but its user base is not there yet.
Then stop driving people to discord alone, at least use both so there’s an option
So… split the user (and support) base while invariably emphasizing the shortcomings of Matrix?
You can link them together at least that’s how the discord and matrix chats are for our instance are. I can chat from discord and get replies from people in matrix
Ah, I was not aware of a way to bridge two channels/servers entirely. I know there are bots that people use to bridge their user accounts though.
If it is fully seamless? Sure. But I don’t know why you are bothering then. But if it adds a “Bot” tag or any other hoops, you are still just making a worse experience for everyone. We ran into this back in the IRC days all the time.
Of course it isn’t seamless, but I have seen good and bad implementations.
You can create a webhook in Discord and in Matrix that will share messages in channels back and forth
By that logic, why are you on lemmy?
And I’m on matrix too, but I’m just an individual. If I were trying to advertise my project I’d probably use discord / reddit as well tbh
Why not both?
Also, if all projects advertised only the largest platforms, how would small platforms grow?
Yup why both both
Discord and matrix are not searchable, they shouldn’t be used at all

It is. There’s no way for search engines to join all the servers and index them all, thus there’s no way to efficiently find information on them without already being there.

The problem is many people are using them like forums, so a lot of potentially useful info is lost (which is more of an user issue than anything else)
That’s the problem, discussions should happen on the open web, not hidden in chatrooms
deleted by creator
it’s not literally hidden, but it’s not easily searchable because since it’s a chat, it’s not indexable on search engines. A forum is a better solution to avoid the same questions being asked 1000x and to expose great solutions and advices.

Element is the thing that’s subpar (to be generous) compared to other chat apps. Element X is better for the features that have been implemented, but the current feature set is very incomplete.

Even desktop is more resource heavy than it should be. But yes, mobile is much worse.
deleted by creator
Element on iOS is absolutely, definitely, slow!
Desktop is better or worse or the same?

I wonder why they don’t just set up a forum
Perhaps they could create a community on programming.dev
I think Matrix suffers from some issues with large communities, for instance Graphene OS has already had to abandon 2-3 of their main group chats due to same bug and last time I checked (2-3 months ago) there has even been talks of switching to Discord. That is, just in case, a community of some of the most diehard privacy nerds btw
Even cooler page to sell you on the app. Very smooth gifs
Gifs are the USP
