LinkAce is a free and open-source self-hosted bookmark archive for long-term storage, organization, and sharing of favorite web links.

---

🚀 Overview

LinkAce is a powerful self-hosted bookmark manager that goes beyond browser bookmarks, allowing users to archive links, organize them with tags and lists, and share collections securely. It automatically monitors links for availability, archives them via the Internet Archive, and provides advanced search and filtering.

The project solves common issues like dead links, poor organization in browsers, and lack of privacy/sharing in cloud services. It's built for privacy-conscious users who want full control over their data without relying on third-party bookmarking apps.

Developed by Kevin Woblick (Kovah) to address his own frustrations with existing solutions, it's offered as free open-source software built in spare time.
