Here is what I would want from a bookmark manager: - Independent of the browser. - Local (no cloud). - When adding a new bookmark, a readable, entirely offline copy is stored (something like the SingleFile plugin). This is used as a fallback in case of link rot. - Good tagging and organization tools. Does anything like this exist?

https://www.zotero.org/ https://www.zotero.org/ ticks all these boxes. Offline copy is called a snapshot when using the zotero connector [1] Tags and Hierarchies are both first class. Technically it is not a bookmark manager. But it manages bookmarks (and much more) very well. [1] https://github.com/zotero/zotero-connectors https://github.com/zotero/zotero-connectors

  How does Zotero compare to hypothes.is ? I take it that they're both trying to achieve the same goal of annotating webpages.

    No they are not. hypothes.is does indeed annotate webpages (publicly and privately) Zotero is really a "Database" of references. those references could be simple bookmarks. The lasted version added to ability to annotate stored pdfs (but not webpages.)

I’ve used Pocket for a while, before giving up (poor search, cloud based). Their mobile apps are great though. For now, I have resorted to Joplin (a note taking app) and its web clipper. It ticks all your boxes, except maybe “independent of the browser” (the clipper is a browser plug-in). Joplin itself has tagging, and you can reference your web clips (which are just normal notes) in any way you want, for example summarising and collecting related notes in a dedicated extra note for that topic.

Looks like you want some sort of note taking/knowledge management software. Logseq: https://logseq.com https://logseq.com can do all that except the third requirement which I think should be a separate software on its own. You could always make a feature request for that though

Yes, if you are comfortable with using the terminal, check out nb.sh.

  This seems the closest to what I want. Thank you!
