Relatedly, I wish I could automatically freeze and archive every single web page I visit, minus heavy media, possibly with very low quality images. I tried squid and the internet archive’s proxies, but MITM’ing myself is just slightly too annoying. There’s SingleFile[0] which does pretty much exactly what I want, ripping every single page into a self-extracting HTML+zip file, but it runs inside the browser so it adds a little delay after you navigate to a page, again slightly too annoying. Anyone have a recommendation for a seamless way to do this? Otherwise I’ll probably roll my own extension that pipes every URL to a local process that rips in the background with e.g. selenium.
I wish there were a way to run fully privileged extensions in Firefox, i.e. in the browser context instead of the page...
