The old memex https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memex concept is a different thing and most important a thing is owning the system, another is having a limited usage license with a black box de facto at the vendor mercy.

Personally I have no memex alike, but I use versioned org-mode notes for anything, meaning my NixOS boot into EXWM with the daily note opened and that note is partially auto-generated to summarize things I might want to see in a single place, NixOS config itself as Emacs config are org-mode notes as well, so it's a kind of full-text-searcheable base with history as well. I've not automated things like Firefox places.sqlite and other data source simply because it's too long to being worth the effort and way to specific and might change "suddenly" following upstream decisions, but essentially that's enough for my needs and I've chosen daily notes model for a reason: I still generate too much "noise" to keep an useful and clean note-base. Chronological division allow to keep the noise "might be useful in future" without polluting too much, collecting screnshots like Recall it's definitively way too much for personal usage, while might be a nice mine of behavioral data for deep analysis on someone else CPU and storage...
