I didn't even know this was something I needed in my life but it just makes so much sense.

I'm currently using Linkwarden, but I would love to switch over to Proton since I use Proton for everything else. I'd like if the interface could be a merge of Linkwarden and Tagpacker (with an emphasis on organization of saved links with tags, folders and ability to upload an image to replace the auto-fetched webpage image).

Interesting idea could be amazing if it's built from the UX similar to how the browser arc does: https://resources.arc.net/hc/en-us/articles/19231060187159-Pinned-Tabs-Tabs-you-want-to-stick-around

I was checking on existing ideas by the keyword bookmark and came along this idea:
I agree and would add another existing app as reference: plutoai.in
Please check this out! It looks allready almost like a proton family member.
Maybe this is a friendly takeover opportunity?

This needs a lot - a whole lot! - more careful thought and consideration. And it's hardly a priority applet IMO. One thing that come straight to mind is that TOR browser needs careful consideration here as it now only accepts bookmarks as .html files. Altogether importing bookmarks into TOR can be quite problematic. I have found this to be especially so with TAILS' version of TOR browser and in the end found it a better solution to just save individual bookmarks, placing them in folders as appropriate, in 'Bookmarks toolbar', or 'Other bookmarks', as appropriate. Not such a big problem here as I don't use a vast number of bookmarks.
A further thought occurs, re: syncing of bookmarks across browsers. This should, if implemented, only be *optional* - e.g., I use mostly different sets of bookmarks in different browsers. Also, this does not take into account browsers running in VMs, nor multi-booting systems.
If this is seriously under review - please Proton, go slow! Not only are there a ton of existing issues that need fixing first, but really, there is a whole lot more that I could comment about on this topic and shall endeavour to do so as/when time permits. And I wish there were more other users with useful feedback/comments/suggestions in this matter!

I currently make use of start.me for bookmarks I want to keep between multiple browsers, and enjoy its functionality quite a bit, but don't actually _trust_ it as a service the way I do Proton. Whether bookmark functionality comes as part of Pass, just menus in a browser extension, or whether it's a customizable start page like start.me (or both, in my dream scenario!), I'd like as much of my data as possible to be with services I know are privacy first.

This is something I would really need.
Proton Pass has made it a lot more convenient to browse the web from multiple devices or browsers by letting me retrieve my passwords easily from anywhere. Unfortunately at the moment I still need to manually export and import my bookmarks anytime I use a different device, so Proton still isn't complete for the purpose of swapping devices on the go. In my opinion this feature would really complete Proton Pass in that regard.

Cross browser bookmarking is badly needed.
Integration with Proton Pass would be perfect.
Share and collaborate is a good idea (equally for Proton Pass and Bookmarks), but not for the first version. -

Would love to have this ... xBrowserSynch is good, but a more secure alternative in the Proton ecosystem would be amazing

Great idea

This would be fantastic.
A robust tagging system with a great search/filter/query tool.
I would want some way to separate personal vs business bookmarks securely. Either using profiles (that require credentials to access), or the ability to password protect a folder.
A password protected folder option to secure potentially sensitive urls from family members.
The option to password protect the entire bookmark system with autolock options.
Would enjoy having the bookmarks saved to Proton Drive as a special view/UI to organize/search.

I would also like something that handles the bookmarks that I currently save on my browser. For me, I dislike when something changes with my browser or another page forces me to reset my browers and I have to start my bookmarks from scratch. Additionally, I end up with bookmarks in weird places and find it difficult to re-organize them and delete useless folders. I'd like the same ability to move items to folders, delete items and folders, etc. as I do with my computer's folders. Also being able to know exactly where they are whether I'm on my phone or laptop would be great.

Personally would adore to have a Bookmark Manager integrated in Proton Pass

Dear Proton Team,
I hope this finds you well. I am a long-time supporter and user of Proton services, including ProtonMail and Proton Pass, and I deeply appreciate the commitment your team has to online security and privacy. Your dedication to safeguarding our digital lives is truly commendable.
I am writing to suggest the development of a new feature or extension that I believe would greatly enhance the Proton ecosystem and further solidify your reputation as leaders in the field of online security. Specifically, I would like to propose the creation of "Proton Bookmarks" or a similar tool that would allow us to manage our online bookmarks securely and privately.
Here's why I believe this feature is essential:
Privacy-First Approach: ProtonMail and Proton Pass have proven that user privacy is at the forefront of your design principles. By integrating bookmark management into the Proton ecosystem, users like myself can enjoy a seamless and secure online experience without relying on third-party browsers or extensions that may compromise our privacy.
Streamlined Integration: With Proton Bookmarks, users could store and manage their bookmarks within the Proton ecosystem, ensuring that these valuable pieces of information are treated with the same level of encryption and care as our passwords and identities.
Enhanced Security: Proton's reputation for robust security protocols could be extended to our bookmarked websites, offering protection against potential threats such as phishing attempts and malicious links.
Advanced Management Features: Proton Bookmarks could offer advanced features such as folder organization, tagging, and even the ability to add notes or comments to bookmarks, creating a comprehensive tool for users to keep their online lives well-organized.
Cross-Platform Integration: Extending Proton Bookmarks to mobile apps and browser extensions would ensure a consistent and secure experience across all devices, further simplifying the user's experience.
I understand that Proton Pass already allows users to add URLs and notes, but as it primarily serves as an identity manager, it lacks the robust management features necessary to replace a dedicated bookmark management solution.
I genuinely believe that the addition of Proton Bookmarks or a similar tool would greatly benefit Proton users like myself who value privacy and security above all else. It would not only provide an added layer of security but also streamline our online experiences by centralizing our digital lives within the Proton ecosystem.
I am more than willing to provide further input, participate in beta testing, or assist in any way I can to see this idea come to fruition. Please consider this suggestion, and I look forward to hearing your thoughts on the matter.
Thank you for your dedication to privacy and security on the internet. Keep up the fantastic work!
Sincerely,
Ashkan Rafiee -

I'd love to see a bookmark manager (something like Pinalist) where you can store hundreds of website URLs, categorize them, click to go straight there, tag them according to use, provide notes about them to remind you of any info you may need before visiting them, etc.. Banking sites, credit cards, health sites, work-related sites, media, entertainment, etc.

I'm on Proton Mail Plus, been for a while. Cannot use raindrop.io or such for safety and integrity reasons. Proton already covering my small business need of Mail;Calendar;Storage and VPN beyond OpenOffice and LibreOffice. Make something similar to raindrop.io or establish a nextcloud service (https://github.com/nextcloud/bookmarks) either by making use of the talent of Marcel Klehr (Floccus) or such at Proton. I need a bookmark manager, not risking being all gone by tomorrow, bought-up by reapers such as Google or abandonware. It would as a safeish package provide me with established business communication (Mail); time and meeting-management (Calendar); req. document storage (Storage); research and reference (Bookmark) and VPN when required. A Password Manager, not so much, still relying on memory and a notebook, locked away - but hoping for EUDI Wallet Consortium (EWC) and Digital Credentials for Europe (DC4EU) already facilitating access to compromized but unavoidable public and commercal services within EU.

Yes. I too would like bookmark management! Where one could create a folder/label to hold the bookmarks. I also seen a request for subfolders. Subfolders would be very useful here to organize html bookmarks.

I saw a suggestion for bookmark sync, but thought I'd post something a bit different.
LastPass killed Xmarks bookmarks manager a while ago. It provided encrypted way to keep your bookmarks on any browser you use.
I've been routinely emailing links to myself in Protonmail when it's something I want, but don't want to have visible in a browser or another service. I filter them into a folder. It's not optimal, or easy to retrieve them.
Is there a way to save links to a Protonmail cloud drive space that's in testing so they're encrypted & tagged so they could be accessed by a Protonmail bookmarks browser plugin?
...or some other scheme that accomplishes the same thing?
My point is it's no one's business what I'm bookmarking, and prefer these not to be available on any machine in any browser until I've logged into my Protonmail account.
