Why does this feel more like an advertisement for Webrecorder[0] than an actual guide?

Why add that privacy and big tech section at the end?

Thanks for the list of features and buzzwords, but I couldn't figure out what all this tooling exactly does. Also, none of the links work. And Webrecorder doesn't have a Firefox extension, so don't even bother listing any of the "privacy" stuff.

Yeah, as someone who has actually done mass archiving (thousands of pages) I was disappointed with the mention only of webrecorder (nice effort, but not for everyone) and zero mention of projects like Archivebox ( https://Archivebox.io ) or Singlefile ( https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/SingleFile/ )
