ArchiveBox
🗃 Open source self-hosted web archiving. Takes URLs/browser history/bookmarks/Pocket/Pinboard/etc., saves HTML, JS, PDFs, media, and more...
I’ve tried all the third party services for archiving interesting things over the years but nothing beats saving everything to your local filesystem using [SingleFile](https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/SingleFile) and using a full-text search front over the directory (something like Houdahspot, for example).
Pocket could have been much more; it should be something between [omnivore.app](https://omnivore.app/) and Evernote's scrap-booking feature and then it would be immensely useful and bring people to Firefox. In its current form, it's a fancy bookmark maker that I don't ever use.
This is amazing, looks like there's a cli version too: https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/single-file-cli
Presumably you can roll your own pocket now.
Some time ago I decided to write my own program to manage my links [1].
I don't want to sign up anywhere. I don't want algorithms and suggestions. My app is on LAN network. I can add links, download data, search, add tags, highlight.
Some things do not work. It is work in progress. I am not a web dev so it is bare bones. I do not use JavaScript, as I hate it. It uses Django and celery.
Once a day I make my bookmarks public [2].
I am still learning. I just wanted to say you do not have to rely on anything to host a link aggregation software.
