Linkwarden
Bookmarks you host. Linkwarden is AGPL-3.0 — Raindrop.io without the collection in someone else's building.
The problem
Raindrop.io is a hosted bookmark database with tags and a reader. You wanted links, collections, and an archive you can export. Linkwarden is AGPL-3.0: collections, tags, and optional page snapshots. This is not Raindrop's every highlight or public-collection social graph.

FAQ
- Why not Memos?
- Memos is notes (/replace/google-keep). Raindrop is bookmarks. Linkwarden is that job.
- Will highlights come over?
- Treat it as a cutover. Import the links you still want. New saves go through Linkwarden.
