Wikipedia bans Archive.today after site executed DDoS and altered web captures
A bit off topic, but are there any self hosted open source archiving servers people are using for personal usage?
I think ArchiveBox[1] is the most popular. I will give it a shot, but it's a shame they don't support URL rewriting[2], which would be pretty important to me. I read a lot of blog and news articles that are split across multiple pages, and it's quite annoying to have to individually search through the archive for each page one by one instead of the "next page" button going to the next archived page.

Adguard DNS received suspicious pressure to block archive.is
Friendly reminder that archive box exists to let you self host your own archive service.

I dream of a day where archivebox becomes a fleet of homelabs all over the world making it drastically harder to block them all.

Linkwarden: FOSS self-hostable bookmarking with AI-tagging and page archival
I've used https://historio.us since 2011 and still pay for it to keep access to all the pages I've archived over the years. The price has been kept low enough that I can't bring myself to cancel it even though I've been using self-hosted https://archivebox.io/ for the last few years.
I always include an archived link whenever I reference something in documentation. That's my main use at the moment.
However, I also feel like I've gotten a lot of really good value when trying to learn a new development topic. Whenever I find something that looks like it might be useful, I archive it and, because everything is searchable, I end up with a searchable index of really high quality content once I actually know what I'm doing.
I find it hard to rediscover content via web search these days and there's so much churn that having a personal archive of useful content is going to increase in value, at least in my opinion.

Links copied from project READMEs now add "?tab=readme-ov-file" query parameter
The links the reporter are trying to use already don't work on mobile. If you want to link to the README file, link to the README file, e.g. https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/blob/dev/README.md
I'll concede that this latter link is much longer than it perhaps should be, but I don't think the links the reporter used previous should have ever been used as they don't work for a lot of people.
