  • I use Obsidian for all my notes and Obsidian Web Clipper works really well. The whole webpage is converted to markdown and stored in a plain text file. It also has a CLI though I’ve not tried that out yet and don’t know it’s capabilities.

    Another option I’ve read about, but not tried out myself yet, is using the org-web-tools plugin for Emacs org-mode. This ofc converts it not to markdown but to org files. You can then search it however you like. Emacs probably has nearly unlimited options there or you just use grep.

    Regarding the “clever” auto-tagging though… Idk. Both options can probably connected to a local LLM that is capable to interpret the content and extract more or less meaningful tags. But having the full page contents at my disposal is most of the time enough to quickly find what I’m looking for.










  • I can totally understand that. In case you still want to give it a chance, I can highly recommend EndeavorOS. It’s basically pre-styled, pure Arch. But it has a welcome dialog, where you have a warning banner at the top if you need to be careful regarding an update. This directly links you to their Gitlab and forum with the steps you’d need to take to not break anything. This saved me multiple times already and I never broke my system, despite not even reading the Arch RSS feed or changelogs.

    Besides the EndeavorOS forum is waaaay friendlier compared to the Arch one.



  • First there is a fork of Organic Maps, which is called CoMaps. If I understood it correctly, the development on Organic Maps nearly halted for some reason regarding the company that owns it. CoMaps now wants to pick it up again.

    Also for navigation I use Magic Earth. It uses OSM data but is not FOSS itself, which is unfortunate. But it offers traffic data which is crucial for good arrival time estimation or avoiding traffic jams.
