  1. It might seem easy if you don't want to host your own stuff anymore to just redirect any request to the #WebArchive overview by prepending web.archive.org/web/*/ in front of the URL.

    But #TheWaybackMachine also archives and follows these redirects… And yes, that leads to URLs like web.archive.org/web/2024102705 🤯

  2. Bueno creo que queda poco para que #Wikipedia borre la página traducida del proyecto #Misskey que creé desde la traducción al inglés

    La verdad que no me había pasado esto nunca, en fin... a ver si termino la version en html y la subo a mi web (nekoprogram.nekoweb.org)

    De todas formas he guardado una versión en TheWayBackMachine...

    But what about entities that explicitly object to being scraped? Sometimes, it's good to scrape them, too.

    Since 1996, the @internetarchive has scraped every website it could find, storing snapshots of every page it found in a giant, searchable database called #TheWaybackMachine. Many of us have used the Wayback Machine to retrieve some long-deleted text, sound, image or video from the internet's memory hole.
