#171936 - Maybe not so bad

the '51 hardware architecture makes the impmementation of linked lists on a '51 extremely cumbersome and thus very costly in memory usage and processing speed. Thus on a '51 I would use an array instead.

That may be overstating it somewhat.

It really depends ow what advantage a linked-list actually brings over other approaches (eg an array); it is possible that the advantages might outweigh the costs - especially if speed and/or code size are not key constraints for you.

As Per said, it all depends on what you are actually trying to achieve...
