Thank you so much for the input! Indeed, the process of bookmarking can be improved a lot. Browser extensions could be a proper solution, but I wanted to publish the app without having to build the extensions for various browsers. That's why there is a bookmarklet. Will take a look into the plugins, maybe they can help making this easier.


+1 to the Bookmarklet, it's what I use now for another service and it's simple and works (and can be hotkeyed in most browsers); I suspect the GP did not find the docs with the bookmarklet option as it's on the User Settings page, not the Links page: https://www.linkace.org/docs/v1/configuration/user-settings/


bookmarklets are great, specially for a first version. I actually would usually prefer a bookmarklet if it wasn't for a lack of keyboard shortcut.

I use raindrop.io and notion, and before seeing the shortcuts, I didn't use them much. It was also kind of the reason why all my previous tentatives to use a cloud bookmark service didn't go well.

The second reason is how accessible it is to click on a bookmark. On the browser you have the bookmarks bar, so at least for your top bookmarks, there's no way to beat it. But for everything else, as long as I can setup the page as my new tab page - or the extension having a shortcut to open the full page - it's also great
