I've tried all of the options: Linkwarden, Linkding, Karakeep, Shiori, Wallabag, Grimoire—you name it, I've tried it. These are all great tools, and I use Karakeep myself, but I use it to bookmark and archive links, not as a "read it later" tool.

In my opinion, no self-hosted read-it-later tool can replace Instapaper or Pocket, as they focus on providing an exceptional reading experience in a native app that works offline. None of the self-hosted tools offer a comparable experience.

So, depending on how you used Pocket, there are either better or no self-hosted options.

I wish Mozilla would open-source Pocket so it could be made into a self-hostable option.

I’m in process of trying different tools.

I broke requirements down to 3 use cases

Links I visit often (general bookmarks) Links I visit once( read later) Links I preserve forever (offline storage)
