Hey guys, so it seems that Linkwarden isn’t as good as I was hoping, since some websites will throw up a cookie popup or some other screen that basically prevents the capture.

Firefox Screenshot seems to work well, but it saves a PNG, which isn’t really text searchable.

FF’s “save page as…” feature seems to break things when viewing them back.

Save to PDF is another option, and that seems to be decent.

I’m not looking to copy entire websites, but I like to save web pages for later reference (i.e. instructions/specs).

I use Synology Note Station, but they don’t have a web clipper for Firefox…

I’m fine with using a folder structure to store files, despite not being totally ideal when compared to Linkwarden.

Does anyone have any other suggestions that perhaps I’ve missed? Nothing too complicated… ideally, as simple as a button click would be great.

    Are you familiar with the SingleFile browser extension? “It helps you to save a complete web page into a single HTML file.” This includes images.

        Oh and ViolentMonkey for when you want to do something automatically on the site before saving it. A little JS knowledge is required for that, but there’s plenty of userscripts and multiple “stores” of them to get some inspiration
