Rated 5 out of 5
by t_wheeler, 5 years agoMight be one of the best extensions I've ever installed. Works great.
I'm using this to solve two problems:
1. "I looked this up once, where was that? What did I search for? Can I find it in my history?"
2. "I should re-read this for the next few weeks/months to reinforce what I learned."
3. "It would be great to capture the Reddit/HackerNews discussion thread along with this article."
Oh that's three. I lied. Oops. :)
My filename template is {visit-year-utc}/{visit-month-utc}/{datetime-iso}-{page-title}.html. This lets me easily identify pages from the previous month, which I then can review and update as needed. Generally I find things through Reddit or HackerNews, so I annotate the page with the post URL. That context comes in handy.
Would be nice to be able to save pages to a custom path in the filesystem. Tags would be a useful addition as well, though it's pretty easy to just do a search in the filesystem for relevant content.

- Rated 5 out of 5by crankyfranky, a day agoAmazing. Exactly what is needed. Packed with features and customizable options. The output looks just like the original. It's opensource, private, does not collect any data. Great job developer. One issue I have is that it's downloading to '~/user/Downloads/' instead of the download path set in Firefox.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15386600, 6 days agoSuper useful for saving webpages, like application forms or temporary AI chats!
Tysm! - Rated 5 out of 5by Alphonse, a month agoA feature that used to be possible from the web-browser itself, but due to increased web complexity now requires an extension. In that regard, this extension works great, but of course not all interactive elements can be saved offline.

- Rated 4 out of 5by toni, 2 months agoDirei tutto bene, l'estensione funziona come si deve.
Però vorrei che in fase di salvataggio mi chiedesse dove salvare.
Non ho trovato tale possibilità tra le impostazioni dell'estensione.
Nelle impostazioni dei Firefox ho già spuntato "Chiedi dove salvare ogni file".
Sono io che sbaglio qualcosa?
