I was already wondering why development on Omnivore was halted… This isn’t good news at all for Omnivore users. It made me legitimately consider switching away from my self-hosted Wallabag instance because everything looked so sleek and promising; in terms of read-it-later apps, it really held the promise of the big next thing (as far as that can apply to such a “simple” category). I’m not sure if articles read aloud is the thing that Omnivore users are looking for, per se. Ah well, they’ll know why they did it… On a side note: > All Omnivore users will be able to export their information from the service through November 15 2024, after which all information will be deleted. Just me or is that extremely short notice? That’s in 2 weeks…

The internet is volatile and it has happened multiple times that a page I have saved to read later has disappeared. Do you have any good recommendations for self hosted services that allow me to save a link and have an archived copy of the website saved to disk? So far, I've tried Wallabag, Linkwarden and Archivebox but I feel like they don't quite work the way I want to. What are you experiences with this?

  Readeck saves an archived copy of the links you save (where it can). From their docs, "Every bookmark is stored in a single, immutable, ZIP file. Parts of this file (HTML content, images, etc.) are directly served by the application or converted to a web page or an e-book when needed." https://codeberg.org/readeck/readeck https://codeberg.org/readeck/readeck

You might want to try SingleFile, i often use it and it's really good in my opinion: https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/SingleFile https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/SingleFile https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/single-file/?utm_content=addons-manager-reviews-link https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/single-file/?... PS. I sync the particular folder i download to across my devices with "Syncthing" by the way.
