monolith VS Wallabag

Monolith is a CLI tool for saving complete web pages as a single HTML file.

I have never used monolith to say with any certainty, but two things in your description are worth highlighting between the goals of WARC versus the umpteen bazillion "save this one page I'm looking at as a single file" type projects:

1. WARC is designed, as a goal, to archive the request-response handshake. It does not get into the business of trying to make it easy for a browser to subsequently display that content, since that's a browser's problem

2. Using your cited project specifically, observe the number of "well, save it but ..." options <https://github.com/Y2Z/monolith#options> which is in stark contrast to the archiving goals I just spoke about. It's not a good snapshot of history if the server responded with `content-type: text/html;charset=iso-8859-1` back in the 90s but "modern tools" want everything to be UTF-8 so we'll just convert it, shall we? Bah, I don't like JavaScript, so we'll just toss that out, shall we? And so on

For 100% clarity: monolith, and similar, may work fantastic for any individual's workflow, and I'm not here to yuck anyone's yum; but I do want to highlight that all things being equal it should always be possible to derive monolith files from warc files because the warc files are (or at least have the goal of) perfect fidelity of what the exchange was. I would guess only pcap files would be of higher fidelity, but also a lot more extraneous or potentially privacy violating details

console $ nix-init default.nix -u https://github.com/Y2Z/monolith [...] (press enter to select the defaults) $ nix-build -E "(import { }).callPackage ./. { }" [...] $ result/bin/monilith --version monolith 2.7.0

For example, here’s a command-line tool to save webpages as HTML files: https://github.com/Y2Z/monolith

monolith: Convert any webpage into a single HTML file with all assets inlined.

There is also a program (monolith: https://github.com/Y2Z/monolith) that does the same

besides wget, for single pages I use monolith https://github.com/Y2Z/monolith

You can pipe the URLs through something like monolith[1].

Wallabag[0] is useful too if you want a self-hosted bookmarking solution. I'm with Pinboard too, but regularly export my bookmarks so I have a backed up local copy of recent bookmarks I've added to Pinboard.

No one has mentioned wallabag yet, so wanted to. Been working well for me - has apps and extensions. If you’re not excited to self-host - https://www.wallabag.it/en has been flawless with the exorbitant price of… 11 euro a year.

Self hosted Wallabag is the way https://wallabag.org/

wallabag is a versatile self-hosted application designed to effortlessly save and organize web pages, keeping online content organized and readily accessible. With its intuitive GUI, users can conveniently store and categorize articles, allowing for easy retrieval whenever you're ready to read later on. Kalc_DK recommends it "for managing links/content that goes into your knowledge base."

That's been logged as an issue in Wallabag, from back in 2016. So I wouldn't hold my breathe on this being implemented anytime soon. https://github.com/wallabag/wallabag/issues/2149

Readwise is absolutely high end power user software, and not just a "read it later" service. If you need it's features, it's worth it. I really like all of my highlights syncing to my obsidian notes, the ability to use a single source for rss/epubs/webpages/pdf/etc and having an AI assistant to throw at tasks.
