I use wallabag. There is paid hosted version, but you can install it on your server. You can tag, star and mark read/unread your bookmarks. There is a webapp, browser extensions, mobile apps for all platforms, and apps for ebook readers.
There's Zotero. I haven't used it but seems to have a feature called 'Collect with a click' which should allow adding bookmarks.
I use and like Zotero and the one-click-save feature in Firefox is very convenient (IIRC, it takes a few minutes to set up though).
I use raindrop.io It has a website and browser extension
I see Jabref has a Linux application and there are browser extensions that work with it. Did you try that?
I tried that extension but it is greyed out on my installation. Besides, it acoompanies pdf files, not the url site directly if I understand it correctly
When you find an interesting article through Google Scholar, the arXiv or journal websites, this browser extension allows you to add those references to JabRef. Even links to accompanying PDFs are sent to JabRef, where those documents can easily be downloaded, renamed and placed in the correct folder.
hmmm.. I see. Good luck finding what you need. I have no ideas.
I use jabref and this extension quite heavily. I can assure you that it does send the URL to jabref; it gets added as a Misc reference with the site URL in the optional fields. On my firefox / windows system it does show greyed out in the plugins menu like you say, however it adds a jabref logo in the address bar which can be clicked (or alt+shift+j) to send to jabref.
I just tried it on my linux system though, and it doesn't work for me, either. Suspect some sandboxing weirdness because I have jabref as a flatpak but firefox running natively. I'm just coming back to linux from a few years hiatus so I'm hoping someone better than me at this can check in.
Jabref does have some troubleshooting steps for their extension that might be worth trying though, depending on your install.
Thank you! I'll check it out later again. I'll try using distrobox or nix
edit: I installed firefox and jabref with nix and it works out of the box. I didn't have to adjust anything, yet the extensions loads very long sometimes. Sometimes it can't find anything.
I'm not familiar with jabref, so I probably shouldn't stick my oar in here. But I will anyway. I've written my own python script that I use for lists like Web bookmarks. It's a poor man's database manager, so you can add attributes to bookmark entries and sort and search on those attributes.
I will check it out and report back, thx!
Tbo, I wonder why I don't simply use a csv or wysiwyg markdown table. In the end jabref provides a table view of a list which could be converted. I either use this or yours, so thank you very much in advance!
Best option is probably mozilla pocket.
But I will use Wallabag if needed (Currently I store them in plain-text and have no reason to switch). It is simple and get job done. RSS support is also great. There is a paid hosted version as someone mentioned. This one is free to use
Wallabag also has open instances where you can register as a example.
Linux
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
