Years ago I used the old Firefox addon Shelve to automatically archive the vast majority of web pages I visited.

The main disadvantage was disk space. This is particularly true when some pages are 10 MB or larger. I would periodically prune the archive directory for this reason.
I stopped using Shelve when I started running out of disk space, and now I can't use Shelve because the addon is no longer supported. The author of Shelve has some suggestions for software with similar functionality:

I used Scrapbook in the past (which also still works) but I usually just save random things in ~/webpages/ since (apparently) 2011. The earliest is a copy of the landing page at bigthink.com. Of course now almost every link is broken, excluding social media buttons, About Us, Contact Us, RSS, Privacy, Terms of Use, Login, and the header logo pointing at the same page.
