Floccus: Sync your bookmarks privately across browsers and devices
Floccus is a self-hosted bookmarks tool. Sync your bookmarks privately across browsers and devices.
Why self-host Floccus
Running Floccus yourself means you control the data, the uptime policy, and the upgrade schedule. That is a different relationship with software than subscribing to a hosted service.
What it does
Floccus falls into the Bookmarks category of self-hosted software. It is designed to be deployed on your own infrastructure, whether that is a home server, a VPS, or a local machine running Docker.
Community traction
The project has 5k stars on GitHub, which is a reasonable proxy for how widely it is used. Active repositories tend to ship bug fixes faster and have better documentation than projects that stall after the initial release.
Deployment
Docker is the most common deployment path. If you are already running containers at home, adding Floccus to a compose file is a low-friction way to try it.
Maturity
The current release is 5.2.5. The project has moved past early development and tends to ship stable, documented releases.
License
It is licensed under MPL-2.0, making it freely available for personal and commercial use.
Links
For anyone already running a home server, Floccus is a natural addition. It handles bookmarks without requiring a paid subscription or an account with a third party.
