In-line with this discussion, over 80% of my open tabs are HN links.

I’d like to be able to easily: 1. Archive the link the HN post is pointing to 2. Archive the HN comments

Does anyone know of an easy automated way to archive both the HN post (comments) and target link (arbitrary link)?

I have a dream of then running textual analysis on this to make it all easily searchable by topic like “machine learning”

raindrop.io has some features that may help with that.

That is exactly what I would also like to do. The HN comments are usually as interesting as the the link in the post. For example people point out other resources or the author of the linked post comments with more details.

I still have no clear solution to this, I currently use org mode but 1) it does not work well on mobile and 2) even on the desktop I should find the time to automate it more (with automatic archiving, better templates captures, etc). While 2) can be solved, 1) is still a problem.
