Man, for some reason archive.today always felt like a ticking time bomb, but I couldn't put a finger on it. Maybe it was too good to be true! 😆
Per the Ars Technica article on this topic...
The guidance says editors can remove Archive.today links when the original source is still online and has identical content; replace the archive link so it points to a different archive site, like the Internet Archive, Ghostarchive, or Megalodon; or “change the original source to something that doesn’t need an archive (e.g., a source that was printed on paper), or for which a link to an archive is only a matter of convenience.”
So maybe we could add Ghostarchive and Megalodon?
It looks like the format for Ghostarchive is https://ghostarchive.org/search?term=<encoded-url>
Megalodon appears to be Japanese, so I'm not sure exactly how to navigate the site, but it could still be useful.
