What desktop bookmark manager, besides one's browser, would you recommend?

Aware of Raindrop, but not a fan of freemium models & the data being stored primarily in the cloud. Many alternatives I've found are self-hosted, however if possible I'd prefer a desktop app with data stored locally.

Thanks in advance!

Linkwarden may be another option? Haven't tried it myself, just remembered that I saw it posted here a few days ago https://lemmy.world/post/18727409

That's what inspired me to ask about this tbh. Unfortunately it's self-hosted, which feels like overkill to me for managing my personal bookmarks.

I'm kind of a fan of Floccus, which has clients at mest for win, linux and android, and leta you store tour bookmarks on gdrive or on a git Repo (or nextcloud or webdav), I for some reason failed git and went for gdrive for the moment. I still hope to get the git variant going, as that seems the absolute best

Thanks! However, Floccus is a syncing utility rather than a bookmark manager like I was requesting. Good tool though!

I use AlomWare Toolbox (www.alomware.com) for my bookmarks. Just press PrintScreen on the web page and it saves both a screenshot and the URL for it. Double-click the screenshot in the list to re-open the URL. All local to the PC with no cloud functionality. Bonus: This also works for apps, docs and folders too. So PrintScreen one of those to re-open them as well.
