Can confirm, tested it with Signal forum, also discourse. Fireshot stops at the end of the current loaded messages (20 of 94) and doesnt scroll further by itself.

Not sure, search on “screenshot lazy load Fireshot” or “screenshot lazy load Linkwarden” does not turn up anything conclusive.

Do you have an example?

And like you said: all tooling for files works for this … For example I use F2 (highly recommended btw) for bulk editing filenames based on regex patterns. This could easily used to edit metadata in bulk.

I like this … a lot.

Is it new?

If there isn’t even a todo task manager that handles notes this way, it is. Because man are there myriad implementations of that stuff.

It’s also the use cases supported by Linkwarden:

Dont know if it’s illegitimate otherwise 😉

But my user story is like this:

I want to preserve and archive information I used because it’s a reflection of the things I did, learned and studied throughout life.

Then my use case are:

• Orientation about “events”: places to visit on daytrips or holidays (musea, nature, parks, campsites) and looking for practical information and background as well.
• Gather a “dossier”: info to help make a decision (buying expensive things, how to do home improvement etc)
• Building a personal knowledge database: interesting articles and blogs.

My current workflow:

• Browse
• Bookmark extensively
• Download pdf or other content (maps, routes, images) when provided.
• Open bookmarks.
• Fireshot every webpage to pdf and png
• Save everything with a consequent filename (YYYYMMDD - Source - Title)

I would like to automate the last 3 steps of my workflow.

This, but for a Fireshot like tool. Screenshot and pdf of webpages in their entirety by scrolling while shotting. In bulk, with CLI.

Restic Backup!

I have a floccus sync with NextCloud bookmarks but for long time archival and accessibility I use FireShot for pdf and png saving to local copy.

Your bookmark + pdf + image + html intrigued me but I is it possible to export in bulk these files for local archive and backup?

Got a work related variant, a 3 letter domain we really liked was registered by a person asking a couple of hundred bucks or so. Which really was a good deal and we were more then happy to pay.

Our IT department advised guiding the transfer themselves. Instead our marketing department went ahead anyway and just agreed to “you end your subscription and after that we register it” … instead of using transfer codes.

In the minutes between, a bulk claimer snatched it away.

Wasn’t sarcastic at all! I do think the visual coding style can be an inspiration for cli also.

Let’s say … like a ScratchJr but for terminal commands …

I do see valid use cases for pc in a test-exam-facility (meaning 80 pc without personal login) or pc in kiosk mode.

I came across something like that in a proprietary “epub” format. Not because of formatting/styling but because of crossreferencing and footnotes it stored every word in a database with its position.

Ouch … I hope I smell them from a mile away … and change course.

As a #2 person, when my level-of-current-knowledge hits a ceiling and I ask for technical advice in forums or lemmy or even social media, it often comes from a #1 person.

Assuming its specialized knowledge few other #2 have.

Half the time I get an answer (about what and how) AND background explanation (giving context and WHY).

But half the other time a #1 doesnt realize easy things for them are hard for me. When they are miles ahead their answer assumes I have a host of other skills already in place. But I dont know what I don’t know so I dont ask for them.

But … every answer from a helpfull stranger is appreciated. Just bridging knowledge is hard.

Is “choosing which files and folders” an upfront configuration thing, or does it happen “on the fly” when opening a file?

It’s a type of integration with local file handling:

• you see every folder and file in explorer / finder.
• they are just filenames but without the data
• they act normal and can be copy pasted renamed etc
• the moment a file is opened the first time, the data gets synced locally.

I use it to connect to rather large folders (bigger then my SSD) because it only takes up space of the files in use.

I deleted my comments seeing the ending side note about NC.

Does the MacOS NC app do files-on-demand?
