Building a Personal Archive with Hoarder


How to self-host a personal archive of web content even if stuff get's taken down

Hoarder runs a headless version of Chrome (i.e. it doesn’t actually open windows up on your server, it just simulates them) and uses this to download content from sites. Once you’ve done this, the next time you click the SinglePage extension icon, it should work through multiple steps to save the current page including any supporting images to Hoarder. I don’t have any local multi-modal models that both a) work with the LiteLLM and b) actually do a good job of answering prompts, so I still rely on gpt-4o-mini for vision based tasks within hoarder.
