Memex is a WebExtension, so it works on all browsers that support that API, which is most of them.
But there are many ways you can do that architecturally.
Here's one off the top of my head that might work:
1. Set up a DNS server on a home server.
2. Run a cron job to automatically wget every URL checked by the DNS server.
3. Set all of your devices to your DNS server.
4. Set up a local installation of one of the thousands of open source search engines and set it to go through all of your pages once an hour.
5. Enjoy.
- emiliobool 7y agoyou can only get domains out of DNS though not URLs
- pythux 7y agoDoesn’t DNS server only see the hostname instead of the URL? The approach would allow to only scrap home pages then I guess. Also, what about pages behind login?
- kick 7y agoCorrect for the first two, I hadn't thought about that. Could be done by uploading history once every hour but that's annoying. Pages behind a login aren't ideal for this under any approach because they tend to be dynamic.
