  1. Ever since #TheInternetArchive was caged and chained by the #Trump presidency, the #Wayback machine has been horribly dysfunctional. So many 503 errors that they should call it the 503 machine.

    This is of course so they can control the flow of information, do a bit of historical revisionism and prevent the unearthing of facts, faux pas and self reporting - as fascists are want to do.

  2. Just noticed an issue with Look Over There!¹ where some of the sites I was forwarding to archive.org began to fail.

    I’ve now documented the proper way to redirect to archive.org in Look Over There! and I also wrote a brief post on the relevant Reddit to alert the folks at The Internet Archive about this and suggest an improvement that could benefit findability on sites with redirects in general:
