- License
- AGPL-3.0
- Hosting Model
- Local or hosted (your machine or their cloud)
- Platforms
- webself-hosteddocker to self-host
- Installation
- Upload the release to a PHP 8.1+ web host and run browser setup, or use the official Docker image
- Operational Setup
- The first obstacle is supplying a PHP/Docker host with writable storage, HTTPS, backups, and upgrades; public community instances remove setup but put the data on someone else's server.
- Where Your Data Lives
- Profiles, links, themes, users, and click data live in SQLite by default or MySQL; uploaded images, configuration, and the database live under writable persistent application directories.
- The Catch / Trade-off
- LinkStack can reproduce the page and click counts, but the user must host, secure, back up, and update it and loses Linktree's integrations, marketplace, and managed reliability.
