LinkLyst - Save Links & Videos to Playlists 제작자: yesmayank

LinkLyst is a bookmark manager and read-later list that organizes your saved links into named playlists. Save any page, article, video, or link — from the toolbar, or by right-clicking without opening it — then reopen it on the site it came from.

No LinkLyst account, no sign-in, and no LinkLyst server: this link organizer runs entirely inside your own browser.

<b>GOOD FOR</b>

<ul>
<li>A reading list for the articles you do not have time for right now.</li>
<li>Video playlists that span sites — a YouTube link, a Vimeo link, and a talk hosted on someone's blog, in one list.</li>
<li>Research collections: one playlist per topic, per project, or per course.</li>
<li>Too many open tabs: save them, close them, and reopen only the ones you need.</li>
<li>Replacing a nest of browser bookmark folders with something you can search, filter, and actually see.</li>
</ul>

<b>WHAT IT DOES</b>

<ul>
<li>Save the page you are on from the toolbar popup, or right-click a page, link, image, video, or audio URL to save it without opening it first.</li>
<li>Organize saves into named playlists, in the order you choose. Reorder by hand; sorting a view never rewrites your manual order.</li>
<li>Browse a visual gallery of preview images, titles, and domains.</li>
<li>Search everything at once, or inside one playlist, by title, domain, or URL.</li>
<li>Narrow by domain, saved date, preview state, and playlist. Filter state lives in the gallery URL, so Back and Forward work and a filtered view can be bookmarked.</li>
<li>Fix mistakes from a 30-day local Trash: removed items and deleted playlists come back with their order intact.</li>
<li>Edit a saved title, or retry a preview that failed to load.</li>
<li>Export the whole library as clean JSON or as a browser bookmarks HTML file. Restoring a JSON export merges it into your library instead of replacing it.</li>
</ul>

<b>LOCAL FIRST, NO ACCOUNT</b>

There is no LinkLyst account, no sign-in, and no LinkLyst server. Your library lives in your browser's own extension storage, and preview screenshots never leave the device. There is no analytics, no telemetry, and no advertising code — nothing is sent to the developer, because there is nowhere for it to be sent.

By default LinkLyst also keeps a compact, metadata-only copy of your library in Firefox's own synced extension storage, so it can come back after a reinstall or appear in Firefox on another device. That path is Firefox Sync and your own Mozilla account — if you are not signed in to one, the copy simply stays on the machine and nothing else changes. The copy holds playlist names, URLs, titles, and order only — never screenshots, never preview-image references, never search or filter state, and never anything saved in a Private window. Clear one checkbox to keep everything local. Your local library is authoritative: a save is never undone because that copy is off, offline, throttled, or full.

Firefox's synced storage is small, so treat it as a convenience replica rather than a backup. When a library outgrows it, newer changes stay local and the interface tells you it ran out of room instead of claiming success. For a large library, the JSON export is the real portability path.

<b>WHAT IT DOES NOT DO</b>

LinkLyst saves and reopens; it is not a reader and not a player. It never embeds a third-party page and never plays media inside the extension — opening a saved item takes you to the original site in a new tab. There is no feed, no collaboration, and no AI.

<b>ABOUT THE WEBSITE-ACCESS PERMISSION</b>

Firefox will tell you LinkLyst can access your data for all websites. It asks for that for one reason: to read the title and preview metadata of a URL you asked it to save. A link you right-click is usually not open in any tab, so no narrower permission covers it.

Those reads are bounded by a six-second timeout, an allowlist of content types, and hard size caps. Fetched HTML is parsed as data and never executed. LinkLyst injects nothing into pages and runs no script in page context — it registers no content scripts at all.

The only third-party requests are about a link you saved: an oEmbed lookup for supported YouTube or Vimeo links, a metadata read from the saved page's own site, and an ordinary image request when a stored preview renders. There is no favicon proxy and no remote web font, so nothing is contacted just because the extension is open.

<b>PRIVATE BROWSING</b>

Firefox does not run extensions in Private windows unless you allow it, and LinkLyst does not need you to. If you do allow it, anything saved from a Private window is marked local-only: it stays on this device and is never written to synced storage.

<b>FIREFOX FOR ANDROID</b>

Android has no extension context menu, so the right-click save path does not exist there — the toolbar popup is the only way to save, and it saves the page you are on. Everything else works the same.

<b>ACCESSIBILITY</b>

Visible keyboard focus, 40–44 px targets, dialogs that trap and restore focus, live result counts, and keyboard shortcuts — "/" to focus search, Ctrl/Cmd+K for all items, Escape to clear a search or close a surface. The layout stays contained at 200% zoom and in a narrow window.
