What happened to Bento
Linktree acquired Bento.me and redirected its pages. The visual bio-link a lot of people liked is gone, and so are the pages built on it. If your link lived at bento.me, it no longer points anywhere useful.
How to recreate your page on Aksara
There is no one-click import, but rebuilding is quick. Sign in with GitHub or Google, add your links and a few projects, drop in your images, and publish. The page lives at aksara.so/yourname. Then swap the old Bento link in your bios for the new one.
What is different
Bento was a grid of blocks. Aksara is a portfolio: real project entries with screenshots, an about section, and a share image generated for every page. If you mostly want a clean visual hub for your links, the free page does that too. If you have actual work to show, it does more.
