I'm not aware of any other bookmarking services specifically tailored towards devs, so I can't speak to that. In terms of what we do differently to other general bookmarking services, our big one right now is the GitHub integration — we sync your starred repos as bookmarks, tag them by language automatically, and also sync related metadata like last release and commit date. I find it really handy to have my bookmarks and stars in one spot, because I save a lot of dev-related resources and I can never remember, did I bookmark an article about that library or did I star its repo? Now I can just look in the one spot for everything. Also, the metadata on last commit etc is very handy for keeping an eye on how active libraries are without having to watch them and wade through the full feed of their issues, etc.
In the future we'll be working on other developer-oriented features like an API, webhooks, maybe Stack Overflow integration or a CLI client, depending on what users want.
I.E.: Pinboard continues to exist, so why would anyone choose Larder? The Github integration is neat, but there isn't much difference between this and just pinning repos, or a Zapier + Pinboard/Pocket/whatever recipe to save starred repos. (or just...starring repos? which is already a form of stored bookmark?) I dunno, having a hard time seeing a value proposition here.

What makes this more then other simlilar services fit for developers ?
