CW: [Long Post] Guide to Cleanly Archiving Aethy Profiles (including Text!)
How to Archive Your Text Posts on Aethy
Setup
- On firefox, download this extensionhttps://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/re-pagination-webext-fork/
- (Optional) download the hide images extension to make the following steps easier and faster to load https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/image-hide
- Change your preferences (The gears to the left of your icon) and in the"Posts" tab, uncheck collapsed posts and set Content Visibility to visible (you can change it back after the archiving)
Loading
- Navigate to your hide boosts page
https://aethy.com/@YOURNAME/hide_boosts4a. (Optional) Turn on The Hide Images extension on this page to make the future loading faster (The images will still be downloaded) - Right click on the "Hide Boosts" tab and go to the re-pagination menu item, and click "Load All"
- Scroll down to the bottom of the page or press the "End" key to activate the infinite scroll feature. (If you see a purple loading bar in the top left repeatedly filling, you've done it right)
- Get a snack, walk away, wait for it to do its thing (You're allowed to switch tabs and it will load in the background) Sometimes you may have to press the end key again for it to continue loading, but just keep an eye out for your first post or oldest post you want to save
Saving
- Once you've reached the beginning of your blog, right click somewhere on the page and select "Save Page As" and look for a place to save it onto your computer
- Once it has downloaded, open the htm file in firefox. 9a. It's gonna look janky as hell right now, especially if you've had emojis in your username, it'll be between every post. To get rid of the excess images if you'd like, enter the files folder of the htm page (it will be in the same location as where you saved the htm file, just have all the media in its own folder with the same name)9b. You can safely delete all sfg files, duplicates or any other superfluous content you already have from the basic archive
- Turn on "Reader View" either by clicking the icon in the url bar or pressing F9
- CTRL + A and Ctrl + V (Select All and Paste) into a text editor of your choice (Drive, Obsidian, Notepad)
Voila, you have just archived all your text posts.
Additional Notes
- Why do this when you have the inhouse mastodon archive? If you take a look at the archive, they are json files and they fucking SUCK to try to navigate to look at all your posts in an easy format. And in the situation of bookmarks, they straight up only link to the posts, what good is that?
- This process will include Followers Only and Unlisted Posts but not replies from what I can tell. However, you can do this on anybody's page you have access to, on aethy or off.
- This guide is also meant to be performed from the aethy site itself. You should also be able to do this on pages via cubhub.social for any other page it federates with, once aethy is gone
- For reference of time this takes, I had 12,000 posts and used the hide images addon before starting the process. In the time it took to go to the bathroom and come back it had finished. All images were still downloaded into the files folder.
Final Thoughts
Fandom history is so important. With the state of crushing culture pushing us to further and darker corners away from each other, lost media is a heart breaking side effect of fractured communities. If you love someones posts, save them! You never know if one day it'll simply be gone. If you like looking back at your old time capsules, backup your activities! By keeping the memories of our resistance alive, we can keep going on.

I've been combining my convention #fanvid show playlists (thank you to every convention that has ever offered their playlists to their convention attendees in any format ...and an even bigger thank you to those using Google Sheets or Excel or some format that can be converted).
The Two Big Vidding Conventions
#Vividcon - USA (2002-2018), a fan run vidding convention showed approximately 4,737 vids.
#VidUKon - UK (2008-present), a similar vidding convention based in the UK has shown approximately 2,248 fanvids
You can find Vividcon's fanvid database here: https://www.vividcon.info/
VidUKon has combined its database with other conventions that run on the Conline.Club platform. You cannot search by convention year, but their dataset allows you to search by Fandom, Vidder and Title

OK time for stats on my #VHS #VideoTape #digitiztion project
1. I have 291 mainly #VHS videotapes of #fanvids (or #songtapes / #songvids
2. I received most of them back in the 2010s - my progress is glacial
3. I still have 178 more videotapes to convert. Some of these are duplicates but given the poor tape quality, the plan is to convert all of them
4. My lossless conversion setup no longer works (capture cards have grown worse over the years and the ones I had only worked with OS that no longer runs aka Win XP). So I am relying on DVD-Recorder to digitize what I can.
What is a songtape or a songvid?

Archival link to a long threaded discussion about #spoilers, #FandomHistory, #fanzines
"Are you a person who was around in, or knows a lot about, 1970s/1980s fandoms? I'm working on a project about spoilers and want to learn more about early uses of the term in its modern sense. I'm reading #Usenet archives; do you have memories of earlier emergent uses? Please share! Non-fandom memories and leads also welcome, of course."
