This is a pretty accurate summary from my experience. The only thing I'd add is that (from what I've read at least) some form of 'smart' album functionality is high on the priority list and shouldn't be too much further down the line. It may be a more advanced customizable logic type of solution (again from what I've read) but the functionality of putting person(s) 'x' into album(s) 'y' (or similar) should be achievable.

Used to use rclone encrypted to gsuite, until that gravy train ran out lol.

Now I've got 3 Unraid boxes (2 on site, 3rd off) and a metric shitton of drives I've accumulated over the years.

So I went back and played around with LW to see what all has changed since I last looked at it, and I finally remembered what the fatal "flaw" was for me previously workflow-wise. The reason I've come to always rely so heavily on my bookmarking links approach is because it's just a couple dead simple clicks, and more importantly it works identically everywhere - desktop, mobile, etc. doesn't matter. The workflow is 100% identical everywhere with no additional apps or anything extra required. Having to open a PWA (or even a separate app if it were native) when I'm on my phone just to save a link is a few more clicks and I didn't want to have to change up my workflow based on what device I happened to be on at the time I found something.

However, since I last trialed LW I have made a real hard personal push to switch over to Firefox as my dedicated browser, and while there's a few things I don't like as much the ability to run extensions even on mobile is positively amazing. The LW one appears to not be compatible officially, but with a little persuasion appears to work just fine...and if that continues working then I could totally see myself switching over to this! Still poking and prodding and trialing it out, but fingers crossed!

Nope it is not...if I'm completely honest my archivebox instance feels like it could tip over and die if I go tweaking much stuff at any given time lol, but as long as it's running and I don't touch it it seems to run well.

My workflow might be sort of stupid lol but 98% of what I bookmark is more just for professional documentation or tutorials or personal research or handy links or etc. that I've come across. In other words, rarely locked behind login, and rarely critical. Half the time it's helpful when sites go offline, but honestly half the time it just functions as if I ever Google search an issue I know I've seen before but can't remember how to fix, then if I see a page I land on bookmarked already then I know it was a good help to me in the past...that sort of thing. Nothing crazy and I'm sure there are better processes out there, but it's just a basic and simple process that works for me.

Sure, maybe that's the intended purpose/workflow. I feel like back when I tried it there was something about the general workflow that I didn't like, but honestly it could have just been something as simple as me and an "old habits die hard" sort of thing, lol. I'm honestly so engrained in the 'bookmark this for saving and the built-in cross-computer sync will make it available in a specific spot on each of the 3-4 PC's I use all the time" that it could have just been that for me ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Archivebox gets my vote, only because despite how much I'd love to switch to Linkwarden there seems to be no viable way to schedule importing of something like bookmarks. With Archivebox, I can relatively easily set it up such that every night any new bookmarks I've added automagically get archived. This is works perfectly for my use case. I put a LW GitHub issue/request in for something similar a long while back but didn't get any responses so I'm guessing that's just not a priority...which is totally fine, it definitely seems to be great software if it fits your use case :)

LW definitely wins in the initial setup department without a doubt - I noticed that for the ~30 min or so I played around with it.

May not add security in and of itself, but it certainly adds the ability to have a little extra security. Put your reverse proxy in a DMZ, so that only it is directly facing the intergoogles. Use firewall to only expose certain ports and destinations exposed to your origins. Install a single wildcard cert and easily cover any subdomains you set up. There's even nginx configuration files out there that will block URL's based on regex pattern matches for suspicious strings. All of this (probably a lot more I'm missing) adds some level of layered security.

I totally agree - demo video I saw makes it look like it totally has both those features

I definitely would lean into your camp for sure. The demo video shows it previewing suggested renames before accepting, but I see your point and I definitely had the same initial reaction lol

 

Hadn't seen this here yet, a co-worker of mine sent it my way so I'm just spreading the word. Looks interesting, to say the least! Anyone tried this out or had any other experience with it yet?

This is the way lol

 

Anyone have any good suggestions for a simple, multi-user tasks App? I used Keep for a long while, and have been using Nextcloud for the past few years...but every Nextcloud upgrade lately it seems I hit new bugs and since I don't use Nextcloud for a while lot else I'm considering just parting ways with it.

That all being said, requirements I'm looking for would be the following:

  • Easily accessible on iOS and Android (native app is a big plus)
  • Simple interface with basic checkmark boxes that you can check off and the task disappears to some sort of "completed" list. No fancy markdown/etc. needed
  • Ability to share certain 'lists' with other users, so my wife and I can see shared lists
  • A Web UI is another huge plus
  • Self hosted is big obviously, but at the end of the day I just want something simple and reliable

If Nextcloud tasks is still among the better options I'll keep limping it along just figured I might as well see if anything new has popped up since I last went down this road. Thanks all!
