I built an app to organize web links like collections. Would love feedback

I’ve been building a personal side-project called Linkits, and I’d love feedback from people who think a lot about information structure, bookmarking, webrings, and discovery systems.

The idea is simple: Instead of having bookmarks, notes, and saved links scattered across YouTube, Twitter, newsletters, blogs, etc., I wanted a way to group links into meaningful collections that feel more like lightweight and discoverable knowledge hubs than traditional folders.

A collection can represent:

- a podcast “universe” (hosts, episodes, resources) - a theme (AI, dev tools, indie hacking) - a project workspace - a personal reading list - or a public topic you want to curate Collections can be public, private, or unlisted.

Current features: - sections inside a collection - filters based on link origin (YouTube, Twitter, blogs…) - list layout - sharing - optional public discoverability - SEO indexing (so a collection can act as a backlink) - custom slugs

Think: Notion pages, but optimized for links.

Why I built it Most bookmarking tools feel either too rigid (folders) or too flat (endless saved lists). I wanted something that:

- lets you structure a bunch of links quickly - looks clean when shared - works well for “topic spaces” - stays lightweight and simple - lets you share is quickly with others.

What I’d love feedback on:

- Does this solve a real problem for you? - Which features matter most in a link-collection tool? - What would make it useful for teams or communities? - Any concerns about UX, scaling, or positioning?

I am iterating really fast so every feedback will really be appreciated.

Happy to share more details if anyone wants to dig deeper.
