Also, it is possible to configure SingleFile extension to automatically push a snapshot to a REST Form API. You can even make it do so when you bookmarks something in your browser, to achive a flow where bookmarking something in the browser saves the page via SingleFile extension and gives it to ArchiveFile.

Also, look in the SingleFile extension options, under Destination.
To save logged in content, you can either pass it cookies.txt with the login cookies it needs, and it works pretty well. Alternatively, you can also use the SingleFile extension to snapshot what you want and upload it in place of the automated snapshot. This is also handy because the extension allows you to remove private data prior to screenshot, such as your name or username.
I personally have cookies in place for most common social media sites that need login (twitter, reddit), and if I need to snapshot something else occasionally, I do it manually and upload it to Linkding.

Despite all of this, 10 bucks a month is a tough sell to me. I understand the cost structure, and I am not saying that this product is not something worth paying for, because it is. It feels like the golden age of Google, and that's what I've been looking for.
But there are many other things I could spend 10 bucks a month on, and get much more value from it. I think the problem is that subscriptions as a funding model have such a limited runway for each person, and very quickly you start having to compete against not only other products in the same category (search engines here), but other subscription services. The value you provide not only has to beat Google, but also Netflix, Bitwarden, my email domain and email service, the VPS I'm hosting a few services on and a few other bits and bobs I'm subscribed to. When it comes down to it, I only have so many dollars I can allocate for subscriptions a month, and I don't think Kagi, excellent as it is, will make that cut.
The only interaction that stick in my mind regarding this when one of the sales people asked me how they might set up their own version of catch-all domain. That's about it.
It has been more than 3 and a half years since GDPR was implemented, yet it took concentrated efforts of non-profits and individuals to come to this extremely obvious interpretation that EU–US Privacy Shield is nonsense.
Maybe if EU and member countries actually made any enforcement efforts, a viable competitive space would emerge.
I would get so many 10s for the rep (which does not count at all) and 1s for the company which would obliterate my stats. And, only the last person who spoke to the customer was rated, so this encouraged meaninglessly transferring people around like a hot potato.
Number of times I would get a customer who had issues for weeks, and then I take a look at their issue, resolve it in 15 minutes, they would be ecstatic on the call and then the NPS survey comes back, 10 for me and 1 for the company. Then I would get a tap on my shoulder from the supervisor asking me to explain the detractor.
I almost got fired after about 6 months due to my NPS being too low, until I made friends with one of the vets, and one evening in the pub with couple beers too many in him he explained to me that the only way to survive is to game the system. He told me how to crash the call client to prevent it from sending surveys to angry callers, how to transfer people to infinite hold queue which does not result in survey when they hang up, and how to trick the system into thinking that I had and inbound call when I did not (which gave me time to actually do my work, like performing relocations and resolving complex provisioning issues since any time not spent on inbound call was considered to be not adhering to schedule). I went from less than +40 NPS to +90 NPS in one month, so most of the NPS feedback was fake anyway.
We call this project farming where I am. I'm not a dev and don't work in IT industry, but I do work for a large company and every few months some new project is rolled out to 'improve' things and most of the time we all collectively groan and wait for the person to get promoted.
The most frustrating part is when once in a blue moon the project turns out to be useful, and the person gets promoted off of it and abandons the project. Nobody then wants to pick it up since they won't get any credit for running it and it ends up getting abandoned.
