Does anyone know of a service that saves and manages bookmarks and links. Like one that would work from android/ipad/desktop.

Is this a thing?

    firefox sync has worked pretty great for me, across all devices. I don’t self host it, but seems like once again, they’ve gotten it to the point where you can.

      Firefox sync works great, but too many steps to bookmark on android if you want to use the same folder as the one on desktop.

    I used to used floccus but it’s been a while.

    See also: https://github.com৻( •̀ ᗜ •́ ৻) -selfhosted৻( •̀ ᗜ •́ ৻) -selfhosted#bookmarks-and-link-sharing

    edit: wtf the word "a w e s o m e " is converted into ৻( •̀ ᗜ •́ ৻) when I paste or type it. Is this coming from kbin or have I installed something weird on my computer?

        Floccus and nextcloud bookmarks seems awesome, but I cant set it up on my phone cuz I failed something with my certs (I access nextcloud localy / vpn only). At the moment Im testing out bookmarks for nextcloud app on android with floccus extension on firefox desktop

          Thats another way I was thinking as I tailscail my devices.

          Do you have your next cloud ‘drive’ backed up? I’ve been meaning to set up next cloud but want a way to back up specific folders/drives. I’ve yet to really look into backing up my nas.

            Yeah, I use kopia and for daily backups of all folders to another drive and also to backblaze cloud (super cheap for backups). I dont backup nextclouud database at all for now. On top of that I use duplicati for the most important folder that goes to google drive. Everything encrypted. I actually started with duplicaty (extreemly simple gui) and then added kopia later on.

      Alright I think I’m sold.

      Next cloud question:

      *I’m new to this stuff.

      Do you have insight on having ‘cloud drives’ encrypted for different users? I wanted to have my own personal next cloud space for me, encrypted and backed up to a USB drive, but I also want one for my parents and family. I want these to be accessible via smb/natively as network drives.

      Have an a quick eli5 or something you think I should look into?

        • With Nextcloud you have the option to encrypt the data at rest Nextcloud - Encryption.
        • it’s the same as hosting your Google Drive, you juste have to create different user and it won’t be shared between user, except if you share them…
        • for backups, I would suggest you look at eather Plugins or do your own rsync. If you go serious about this, donc forget the 3-2-1 Backup Strategy
        • To have access as network drive, theirs always the possibility to install it as a Desktop app. Or you could mount a network drive with Nextcloud and use it as an ‘interface’ to see the drive.

        As for a guide… Google, YouTube is your friend… Theirs those if you want to start

        My personal advice, if you setup as a docker, use an external database and not the one provided within the docker, it might break when you’ll update Nextcloud.

    I like start.me. It isn’t something to download but it’s a web page. The free service is a great start. I’ve been using it for years now
