ArchiveBox
🗃 Open source self-hosted web archiving. Takes URLs/browser history/bookmarks/Pocket/Pinboard/etc., saves HTML, JS, PDFs, media, and more...
Project mention: Linkwarden: FOSS self-hostable bookmarking with AI-tagging and page archival | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-05-01I've used https://historio.us since 2011 and still pay for it to keep access to all the pages I've archived over the years. The price has been kept low enough that I can't bring myself to cancel it even though I've been using self-hosted https://archivebox.io/ for the last few years.
I always include an archived link whenever I reference something in documentation. That's my main use at the moment.
However, I also feel like I've gotten a lot of really good value when trying to learn a new development topic. Whenever I find something that looks like it might be useful, I archive it and, because everything is searchable, I end up with a searchable index of really high quality content once I actually know what I'm doing.
I find it hard to rediscover content via web search these days and there's so much churn that having a personal archive of useful content is going to increase in value, at least in my opinion.

>Seems cloudflare checkboxes / human verification are very commonplace nowdays. Curious how(/if) web scrapers get around those?
You can get a real browser[1] to check the box for you, then use the cookies in your "dumb" scraper.
