I wish Apple would’ve open sourced the .webarchive format. Nothing beats the user experience: Cmd-S in Safari and select “Web Archive”. It’s downloaded in permanent copy, indexed by Spotlight and accessible on all your devices. I use it for collecting recipes around the web. However, I’m a bit concerned about data longevity. I’ve tried other more open formats (loved Singlefile) but none have the UX and support that this has. It’s so simple (as it should be).

> Nothing beats the user experience: Cmd-S in Safari and select “Web Archive”. Most browsers support MHTML: IE5's format, which is based on the .eml format. I think Firefox and Safari are the only major browsers that don't. There's also the Mozilla Archive Format, which never really got popular for some reason: https://www.amadzone.org/mozilla-archive-format/ https://www.amadzone.org/mozilla-archive-format/ . > I wish Apple would’ve open sourced the .webarchive format. I mean… it's not like it's a secret. It's just very Apple-specific: binary plist and some other stuff.
