Goodlinks MacOS is a powerful yet simple way to organize and store digital links that can clutter your day. From news articles to social media posts, Goodlinks helps you collect important references in one place. I recently began using Goodlinks for MacOS after a decade on Pocket and have been really impressed with its features and UI. First and foremost- Privacy. I also love that its native, and uses far less storage or ram than pocket by a mile. Furthermore, Goodlinks allowed me to seamlessly import every link I had saved over that 10 year period, eliminiating a lot of stress in orgazining alll my old articles and memories, and even let me add my favorite subscriptions to bypass paywalled articles!While the transition has been good so far, there are a few things that would really improve the expeirnce for us MacOS readers1) Adding the ability to select a 3rd party browser for opening links without having to change the share extension settings; 2) Offering users a feature that allows them to export an article as PDF like they do on iOS; 3) Adding the ability to scan or identify broken/dead links when importing, and a way to bypass cookie notices/cookies pages in the article download. 4) Automatically tagging subscription linksto allow easier sorting;5. When you finish dragging a link to a tab, the up/down slider of the tags menu resets to the top- when sorting through tons of links by tagging, this can get a little frustrating as you develop a large list.All in all, Goolinks has been a revalation for this former pocket luddite, and I highly reccomend that you check it out, especialy if you’ve been wonderina about finally getting through your doom pile of information ; )
Love where this is going

GoodLinks is fast, private and solid. I like where this is going. They've added nearly every missing feature that has been highly requested since the 1.0 and I'm excited for that to continue.Biggest missing feature so far is a good way to manage, edit, and organize tags & links in bulk. You can only select one link at a time and it's hard to tell what is downloaded and manage what link is downloaded. Similar with bulk editing of tags if they were drag & droppable, allowing for a hierarchy of tags and sub-tags, I think it would really help users with hundreds of links.
Search has changed... not for the better.
TexasYankeeATX
Up until recently I was able to search for a word and any article that had the word would show up in the Links column. It worked like a filter to only show relevent articles. This was so very helpful for quickly searching topics and showing articles that I could skim though quickly by just tabbing down through the displayed results. What happened to that?! Now I do a search and recieve a popup list and can only view one article and select one article. I am then forced to research again to find a second article. So annoyed and saddened by that as I was using Goodlinks as a repository of my articles and almost like a second brain. That usefullness has been removed. I had also used search to help with filtering articles that I would then select all and give a tag to. That usefullness is now also gone. So sad.
Developer Response
Thanks for your feedback. The old search will be restored in the upcoming 3.1 update.
The perfect Read-It-Later App
KiranSS
Found it to be perfect replacement to Pocket which was my go to Read-It-Later app. Have tried quite a few alternate apps (Instapaper, Flyleaf, Raindrop, etc) which seemed to be limited in their features and/or overpriced (with a high monthly subscription)Works seamless across my Apple devices (Mac, iPhone). The imports, saves, highlights, etc syncing between the devices without any gaps.The Developer is very responsive and addresses feature requests quite quickly (implemented a requested import feature in less than a week)
