Using static websites for tiny archives (alexwlchan.net)

I copy the images in my clipboard and save them in an HTML file to have single-file galleries:

Live:

Selecting via file-picker works too. Dragging usually does not. When all works, images are inserted inline as blobs.

After adding images, if you save the page (literally file->save), the blobs are saved together. don't want a part when saving (for example, removing images)? inspect element, remove, save page.

throw the page on some server or just double click on your computer/mobile.

Love it! True to the original vision of the WWW. Tim Berners-Lee's WorldWideWeb browser was also an editor.

https://github.com/cadars/john-doe gives me the same feels.

That is slick. Offline first in the truest sense.

Really nice idea! As a data hoarder myself, I think I will follow this as way to remind myself of the things I truly should archive :)

Strict hierarchies are indeed too rigid. What about using a tag-based file manager like TagSpaces (which is free and open-source)?

MacOS also supports tags.
