Announcing Linkwarden 2.16

Hello everyone!

Today, we’re excited to announce a new Linkwarden release across web and mobile.

For those who are wondering, Linkwarden is an open-source collaborative bookmarking tool that keeps permanent snapshot of the content of the links you save, so you can still access them even if the original content is no longer available.

So let’s get into it.

What's new in mobile:

• Re-preserve link formats: You can now re-generate a link's preserved formats (screenshot, PDF, readable view) from the mobile app, useful if the original preservation failed or the page has changed since.
• Change link's banner: You can now set a custom banner image for a link when editing it.
• Access more account options in Settings: Settings now has a "More Account Settings" option that opens your full account settings inside the app, using your existing session.
• Support for self-signed certificates and custom request headers: Android now accepts self-signed certificates, and you can add custom request headers to the app's requests. This makes the app usable with instances behind a reverse proxy or auth layer like Authelia or Cloudflare Access.

What's new in web:

• Refreshed, more modern design: The top navbar is removed and its functionality moved into the sidebar, plus a number of smaller UX fixes.

• New search modal with recent search history: Press ⌘K (or Ctrl+K) anywhere to open a search modal. It also keeps your recent searches stored locally in the browser.

• New "System" theme option: The theme can now follow your OS light/dark preference instead of being set manually.

• PNG support for link banners: Link banners now accept PNG uploads in addition to JPEG.

There’s more…

As always, there's a long tail of smaller improvements across the web and the mobile app.
