selective FOSS bookmark manager software available?
Had to check and rebuilt my BM-database (about 2000). I found as checkers the xpi "checkplaces" and a very quick SW "AM-DeadLink" so half the job is done.
Didn´t find a selective tool for exporting entire BM-folder especially from PM. Found this Selective Bookmarks Export Tool
https://github.com/LightAPIs/free-export-bookmarks but for Fox. So maybe I should export my BM to a Fox, use this xpi and reimport the processed Fox BM to PM via js or html.
But I´d prefer an offline FOSS BM-Manager. Is there a Software doing the job under Win or Linux ?
Need it only for pure BMs, no tags, no descriptions.
Any idea is welcome.

I enjoy the challenge of trying to find things via search engines, and despite looking a lot, couldn't find anything that matches (installed app that is FOSS which makes it possible to export only selected markbooks) what you are hoping for.
I don't think there is anything easier than your suggested solution.

I don't fully understand the request, but there is linkwarden which claims to do full bookmark management in a self-hosted method: https://github.com/linkwarden/linkwarden
Also linkding: https://github.com/sissbruecker/linkding
Both are under active development.

"Hoarder" is also a self-hosted solution for bookmark management, but obviously it doesn't integrate with the browser UI (as it's web content based)
Alternatively you could make use of start.me if a web solution is good for you and you trust them.

I just have an HTML file that I set as my new tab page and home page for this purpose. I use syncthing to sync it between my devices.
Re: selective FOSS bookmark manager software available?
Start.me is my current bookmarking solution, and I am finding it is very flexible and capable, but since @lunapalida preferred something offline, I wasn't going to mention it.
While it can't export only selected folders, in case any Windows users have come across it before, I think https://www.ronsplace.ca/Products/RonsWebLynx is the most capable app you can install for handling bookmarks, but it's not FOSS, so I didn't want to mention either.
For simplicity, a HTML file is probably hard to beat, but maintaining it could be tedious?
