FOSS alternative to Pocket?

Hello, I would like to replace Pocket and am looking for a similar app to bookmark links. For now I just need a "local" version, no cloud needed. I might setup synthing later on. Does any of you knowns any FOSS apps?

Personally, I prefer Omnivore.

Omnivore looks great. Combination of wallabag X linkding. But it seems they make the self-hosted setup intentionlly compliacted and working on only one kind of self-hosted setup.

Me too! I’ve been meaning to try https://linkwarden.app/ for a while, but haven’t gotten around to it yet.

Wallabag is the most popular alternative, to my knowledge. I believe, it requires a server, though.

It doesn't but I do believe --have not checked a while-- that you have to pay for the service. It is "free" if you host, server price aside. On that you are right.

Wallabag. Been using it for years. You can have the service provided or host your own instance and it has its own APK for it on F-Droid for on the go. That is what I do.

As @ephera said, Wallabag. Wallabag has an Fdroid app btw.

Also, there’s this app called Handy Reading. Haven’t tried it yet, so ymmv.

i tried handy but chose Feeder over it because it's more customizable

feeder has a "save article" option op can use for reading offline but it won't sync between multiple machines (if i'm not mistaken)

i couldn't find a foss local bookmark library replacement to pocket

I'd like to replace Pocket too, but I doubt I can replace it in my Kobo eBook. Any ideas?

Wallabag and KOreader which offers the plugin.

I'll take a look, thank you!

I use Floccus which syncs via caldav (self-hosted via Nextcloud). In a similar vein, I host ArchiveBox and archive the important stuff that way.
