percollate VS Reminiscence

You can still choose automation. The easier route for me is to use wallabag to save the article. Then on my remarkable tablet I can grab a very readable document with https://github.com/koreader/koreader.

The other option is to use https://github.com/danburzo/percollate to convert a webpage to a nice document directly. I use both tools depending on my needs.

This function is just a simple combination with yt-dlp and percollate.

If someone hasn't already done this and I can't figure out how they are converting HTML, I have also considered using Percollate to convert, then sending to ReMarkable via rmapi.

The Cli Tool Percollate offers a different approach, but is also very good: https://github.com/danburzo/percollate

Concerning pdf there is the well known wkhtmltopdf , but let me say that I love the not so well known percollate

Since I'm working on a similar project, this is how I am planning to pull content from the web, utilizing percollate[1] to get the HTML content, I haven't written any implementation for this in Python yet.

If you don't mind me asking, how were you going to implement spaced repetition? Since the Incremental Reading algorithm has never been published as far as I know.

So far my best option seem to be https://github.com/kanishka-linux/reminiscence(which I haven't seen in any list of these type of apps for some reason) but that received no updates in 5 years(the dev apparently has no free time to work on it in the foreseeable future) and it has a few active bugs so if I can find something more stable, it would be ideal.

For people interested in this, adjacent solutions would be

I used ArchiveBox but had some version migration issues with Docker which invalid my entire archive. It was also too resource-hogging for my cheap NAS. Then I looked into Reminiscence after but way to complicated to set-up for me.

I do find another project called Reminiscence, it works quite similar to ArchiveBox so the chance of bypassing paywalls is low, but still worth a try.

I’ve seen a handful of this kind of “Google, but only for things I’ve seen before” app. I think it’s something the world needs, but there are a lot of different approaches and I don’t think anyone has quite nailed it.

Ultimately the best solutions will likely use many different cataloging strategies depending on the content, and will allow you to tag or otherwise organize important content.

Funny enough if I had such an app I could make a list of 4 or 5 apps, but right now can only find one:

I remember seeing one posted to HN that used the browser API to essentially dump all resources on every website you visit to disk.

There’s also bookmarking and archiving tools like:
