Betula is a single-user self-hosted bookmarking tool for the independent web. It is simple to run and use. I started making it at the end of 2022. It is my main project currently. When I program, I usually program Betula.

Some Betulæ I know of
The first one is mine! As you can see, the pattern of using links
as the subdomain has emerged.
- https://links.bouncepaw.com
- https://links.flancia.org

Deceased instances (they might be back online):
Note that every instance is one-person only! Want to have your own Betula? Set up your instance. Having problems? Contact me.
Relation to Mycorrhiza
Both projects are part of the Mycoverse. What does it mean now? Not much, except it means that both projects are heavily connected ideologically and will be connected technically in the future.
Both projects use Mycomarkup as the only markup language.

Simplest bookmarklet
This one is obsolete. An advanced bookmarklet is built in Betula itself (visit the Bookmarklet page). But if you want it, here it is.
javascript:window.open(%22https://links.bouncepaw.com/save-link?url=%22+window.location.href+%22&title=%22+document.title,'_blank')
Change the URL with your own.
