Archive.ph is good, especially because I've never met a paywall it couldn't bypass. 😏

Why are specifically are you using archive.today? To post links that bypass paywalls, or for something else? Because if it’s for something else then there may be other solutions, like using archive.org or saving the page locally.

You can save as HTML but animation and videos won’t work. Try singlefile extension

What's your use case?

Just learned about Readeck the other day. Self-hosted for now, but it sounds like they're planning to launch a centrally-hosted instance at some point, maybe keep an eye on that.

If you have a machine and/or the storage for it, you could deploy a docker container of linkwarden and do it yourself for a lot of things.

It says it's for "bookmarking" but in addition to storing the outbound link, it takes backups of pages as text, html, and PDF and can do so recursively with the pages links. Nice interface, makes stuff searchable and taggable etc.

As others have said, SingleFile extenstion works well. I've also found zotero with the web extension quite good. Its useful for added organisation/catagoriesation especially since I'm already using it for academic work.

There is also zimit for use with kiwix, both a comandline version(see github) and website if you want something simpler.

Although I've found the website has long queues quite often and it may not get a clean backup if the website uses cloudflare or the like. But its useful if I need an offline copy of a website with many pages.

I recommend having a look at the archive team wiki page on software, here, see if anything fits your needs.

singlefile or webrecorder in chromium based browsers maybe?

self hosting is actually pretty easy actually :) we're here to help too.

for large scale crawling i usually use archiveteam's grab-site.
