Why does Lemmy output horribly invalid HTML? by onehundredsixtynine in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

Interesting fact: Firefox (or Gecko to be accurate, because there was no single "Firefox" browser back then - there was Netscape Navigator and Mozilla Application Suite) had such rendering mode, but it was quickly abandoned.[1]

https://hsivonen.fi/doctype/: "In the summer of 2000 before Netscape 6 was released, Gecko actually had parser modes that enforced HTML syntax rules and one of these modes was called the “Strict DTD”. These modes were incompatible with existing Web content and were abandoned."

It's good if you want the bulletproofness and archiving accuracy of archive.today, but don't want Google spying on you (archive.today requires you to complete a recaptcha challenge every time you want to archive a web page and your cookies expired).

YSK: there's a browser extension called "SingleFile", which allows you to save any page into a single HTML file. by onehundredsixtynine in c/youshouldknow@lemmy.world

I can’t imagine why I would want to save the interface on a YouTube page

Archiving a community post, for example.

It also works with JavaScript-heavy websites like Mastodon and Youtube, which the standard "Save Page" feature implemented in all browsers usually fails to save, though some features like collapsibles are missing.
