Ask HN: How can I back up an old vBulletin forum without admin access?
The format you want is WARC. Even the Library of Congress uses it. There are many many WARC scrapers. I'd look at what the Internet Archive recommends. A quick search turned up this from the Archive Team and Jason Scott https://github.com/ArchiveTeam/grab-site (https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/Who_We_Are) but I found that in less than 15 seconds of searching so do your own diligence.

struggling to download websites
You can use grab-site with --no-offsite-links and --igsets=mediawiki.
- Internet Archive Down, will be up and running soon (i hope).

best tool for downloading forum posts in real-time?
Does the forum provide real-time notification for new posts? Like maybe a RSS feed, or a 'New' section? If so, some scripting around grab-site or httrack could grab them quickly.

Help building or mirroring docs.microsoft.com
Crawling is of course the other option. I've seen https://github.com/ArchiveTeam/grab-site in the wiki, but I'm unsure how to host the resulting .warc archives.

How to mirror multiple websites correctly?
It's a completely different tool, but I like using grab-site https://github.com/archiveteam/grab-site . Try --wpull-args=--span-hosts='' or something to make it mirror all subdomains. It outputs in WARC format which can be read with a site like https://replayweb.page.

Stack Overflow Developer Story Data Dump (10 whole MB !)
Thusly, as a bit of a statement, here's your "I will do it myself even if I have to bash my head against the wall" collection of the Developer Story on 10-20 top users. I know there are some blogs on old web design, perhaps it might be worth their while as a memento of an era bygone. And as for myself, I am looking into setting up a dedicated server for either grab-site or ArchiveBox. Possibly both!

Does anyone have a good bookmarking template to share?
I rarely use the built-in browser bookmarks. The important links to services and other things, I keep in a self-hosted service, Linkace. The problem is that I am trying to keep all my important information in a future-proof format, and that was the reason I migrated from Notion (and Evernote before) to Obsidian: the ability to save all data in plain text.
