    Taking a screenshot usually works for me.

    Letting it go, so it can comeback again and amaze me.

    Screenshot. Then forget it.

    If you’re talking about TikTok/Insta/YouTube etc, then Downr would come in handy

    Bookmark, save website URL or write it down in notepad

    Screenshots, the caveman way.

    But sometimes,

    wget -r. Because nothing says “I love this blog” like downloading its soul.

    Way-back machine is my go-to, but for stuff I really care about, I use SingleFile extension. It saves the entire webpage exactly as it appears, with all the formatting intact. Learned this trick after losing some amazing cooking recipes when my favorite food blog disappeared overnight.

    Archive like it’s a rescue mission, save thread, screenshot, PDF, Dropbox, even email it to my future self. If the internet’s going to forget, I’ll be the stubborn librarian who doesn’t.

    Usually the page screenshot will be saved in the album

    Screen record or a simple screenshot works fine

    I rely on the Wayback Machine to archive important web pages. It’s a reliable tool for preserving content that might otherwise disappear.

    I just save whatever i want. And then like a year later…i wonder how the heck i have a hundred thousand things saved and feel this onerous compulsion to actually sort through it all and try to organize it.

    For Instagram content, I usually utilize the save feature for posts and reels, while screenshots are my preferred method for capturing content from other applications.
