Describe the feature you'd like

It would be great to have a way to distinguish between manually added bookmarks and the ones received from RSS in the home page.
Currently, all added/received links are shown together.

Describe the benefits this would bring to existing Karakeep users

This would create a way for users to quickly navigate through saved links and find information faster. A result of this feature would be creating a new way for users to see newsletters, updates and the like, which would be beneficial for users that like to keep things organised.

Can the goal of this request already be achieved via other means?

Yes, through a set of rules and workflows which will require a lot of manual effort.

Have you searched for an existing open/closed issue?

  • I have searched for existing issues and none cover my fundamental request

If this is to be done, it should be done via rule engine. I think the missing condition is a "source" condition. Which will allow you to auto archive any bookmark added from RSS feed (to remove it from the homepage) and add it to a separate RSS list.

So the rule would be:

  1. Whenever a bookmark is created.
  2. If the bookmark source is "rss".
  3. Archive bookmark & Add it to list "rss feeds".

While I agree with the rest of it, perhaps archiving, generally, is more a feature that suggests that there are no pending actions on that item, like say, archiving a bookmark after having read it. Seems to me that archival as a property could be separate from the property of an item's visibility on the homepage.
Maybe something like adding a property to a list like "show on homepage" would be more in line with what we are doing here.

Today, "archive" == "show on homepage". Might be bad naming, but that's its exact functionality today.
