I've thought about using Zotero, which is a Free Code under AGPL;

https://www.zotero.org/

It does depend on a server, but AFAIK the free tier would be fine for syncing bookmarks, etc. A non-geek friend used it during her PhD thesis and rated it so highly she paid for more storage.

There might be a way to self-host a Zotero server? Never looked into it.

[Bibliography + software] The new version is out: it has been released end 2025 (on December, 26th, a Friday)!
It's biblatex-software, for "citing software with style" in your #bibliography.
Because software matters, and source code is a quotation!
The SWH founder Roberto Di Cosmo is the maintainer, since its first release on May 26th, 2020 (so 67 months ago!) as a corner stone of the work by SWH, Software Heritage ( @swheritage) founded with @zacchiro

Any recommendations for software to collect and organise #bibliography, ideally #OpenSource, ideally integrated with a text editor. I know that such things exist for #Emacs, and although I really dislike Emacs, I'm prepared to consider an Emacs-based solution here!
