LinkStack
★ 3kSelf-hosted link-in-bio page with themes and analytics — own your link page.
LinkStack does the job of Linktree Pro and Beacons, self-hosted. It is AGPL-licensed, so a hosted fork has to publish its changes, and it installs in about one command. Linktree Pro bills $9 for it.

Is it actually a replacement?
We have written a verdict on what it replaces — what you lose, and why people still pay:
How LinkStack runs
Where it runs
LinkStack runs on your machine or their cloud.
Installing it
Upload the release to a PHP 8.1+ web host and run browser setup, or use the official Docker image.
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.
What setup takes
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.
The catch compared with Linktree Pro
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.
LinkStack questions
Is LinkStack open source?
Yes — it is released under AGPL-3.0.
Can LinkStack replace Linktree Pro?
Our verdict on Linktree Pro is YES. LinkStack (4k stars) is mature open-source replacement for Linktree Pro — self-host with docker and stop paying $15/mo.
Can I self-host LinkStack?
Yes — we rate it easy to self-host, and it runs on your machine or their cloud. Upload the release to a PHP 8.1+ web host and run browser setup, or use the official Docker image.
