firefox-scrapbook

Related: I used to keep a collection of locally mirrored web pages a long time ago, with a legendary Firefox extension called ScrapBook [0] (now long retired). The surprise for me is that after all these years I still remembered the name... While writing this comment I found that it lived on as a (now "legacy") new extension named ScrapBook X [1], and then yet another one named WebScrapBook [2], which seems to still be alive!

http://www.xuldev.org/scrapbook/ https://github.com/danny0838/firefox-scrapbook/wiki/Intro There's zero hope of implementing something like the unfortunately named Scrapbook Plus & Scrapbook X research addons. In-browser editing & powerful manipulation, full text search within saved pages, direct access to the saved archives, the sidebar, the specialized capture options and quite a bit more require features (XUL-based and otherwise) that Mozilla won't implement. It's the biggest thing keeping me on Waterfox beyond Mozilla continual slide into sleaziness on privacy and afaik no browser not based on pre-quantum firefox supports anything like it. Beyond research or archiving pages I think will disappear If I want to yank the content from posts across five sites, clean it up quickly, merge it into a single document and export it for conversio

Unfortunately, the answer is no. https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/7btuln/so_long_and... The Firefox team has specifically said they won't add support for the foreseeable future. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1246236#c113 More here: https://github.com/danny0838/firefox-scrapbook/issues/209#is... Losing several hundred thousand users¹ probably isn't in the team's best interest; so hopefully they will make it a priority to revisit this, but I have a feeling there are resource limitations that will make this by design won't fix. ¹ https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TFcEXMcKrwoIAECIVyBU...
