TBH this is why I'm partial to Microsoft Recall or something similar, because inevitably it's going to get monetized to address link rot... and private data. Too bad there isn't a P2P option where you can "request" screenshots of cached webpages from other people's archives. Maybe it's all embedded in LLM training data sets and will be made public one day.
- photonthug 2y agoHah, this is definitely going to happen. First llms kill the original public internet by simultaneously plagiarizing and deincentivizing everything original, then after it disappears they can sell it back to us again by unpacking the now-proprietary model data which has become the only “archive” of the pre llm internet. In other words: A product so perfect that even avoiding the product requires you have to use the product, what a complete nightmare
- user_7832 2y agoI think I've seen an extension (?) that would auto-save every webpage to your device, probably on r/datahoarder, that I'm still trying to find. I also have used a relatively easier auto-archive-to-wayback-machine extension that's probably close enough for most people.
- freedomben 2y agoI have this set up with archive box. Unfortunately, if you do much browsing, it will very quickly saturate memory and CPU on whichever machine is running the archive box. It also gets really big, really fast. There are also increasingly websites that are blocking it, so when you look at the archive it is either empty or worthless. Still worth it to some people, but it does have its challenges.
