Sorry this feels like it should be obvious but I’m researching the best method to archive links mostly for personal use and potentially sending articles to my e-reader via Pocket which requires a URL.
https://archivebox.io/ would likely be best, but I use singlefile or screenshots for important copies.
This may be a good question for Self-hosting.
I use a combo of OneNote (it’s pretty easy to put entire pages in OneNote, even from a mobile device) and Joplin. Obsidian works well too.
What’s nice is all of them can take the full page, so it looks nearly identical to the website.
Alternatively you can use reader mode in the browser, and send that to OneNote/Joplin, or send the link to http://archive.ph and save the archived version.
Saving the full page enables search to work.
Edit: forgot about your pocket url issue. Well both Joplin and OneNote save the url with the page info. Not sure how well Pocket utilizes pages archived on archive.ph. May need some testing.
You can scrape the webpages as markdown or text file.
There is a plugin I use (Desktop) which never fails for this. I love it!
I use wallabag, which then integrates into KOreader and others. A self hosted pocket.
I could download all my wallabag articles as EPUB and load them to an eink reader but most of my article reading is via their android app.
Wow I really like everyone’s answers here but actually getting off of pocket with my Kobo Reader didn’t seem like an easy path until this info. Thanks!
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.
Wallabag is like Pocket but self hosted and better.
