Useful archiving efforts and other projects to help out with:

HIGH priority (If you don't help archive these automatically, the data will probably be lost forever):

1. Help out automatically archive things being shut down right now by running ArchiveTeam Warrior program (or specific containers) in the background:
Requirements: Few GB of space, some bandwidth and small amount of CPU power, more info: https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/ArchiveTeam_Warrior
http://warrior.archiveteam.org/

2. Help out automatically forward URLs you browse that are not archived on https://archive.org to them for archival with a browser extension:
https://github.com/internetarchive/wayback-machine-webextension
>>
MEDIUM priority (Important overall)

3. Seed torrents for as long as possible, rare data forever. Make sure to look up a guide for your router to PORT FORWARD your torrent client port, to substantially increase your upload (and your download) speed. In low population torrent swarms, if no one is port forwarded then you might not be able to connect to each other at all and exchange any data despite having it.
Requirements: As much or as little bandwitdh you want (you can set the limits if you need to)
https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent (Recommended client, especially to replace uTorrent)

4. Manually archive pages you want to have a local copy of with a "Web Extension for saving a faithful copy of a complete web page in a single HTML file with a single click"
https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/SingleFile

5. "Capture or record any area of your screen and share it with a single press of a key"
https://github.com/ShareX/ShareX

6. Publish the data that you have archived that isn't easily or at all available online. The easiest way is uploading it to https://archive.org. Once uploaded and edited to what you want, you can download the .torrent file archive.org will automatically always create for all items. This torrent can then be seeded and shared with a magnet link anywhere.
You can also just create torrents yourself in your torrent client and, as long as DHT (Distributed Hash Table, decentralized way to share torrents without the need for any specific tracker) is enabled in settings (on by default), your files will be searchable on DHT by DHT crawlers, local or online (for example https://btdig.com/, where you can actually also search for FILE NAMES within all DHT torrents)
>>
OTHER useful things:

- In your torrent client settings add the best trackers to be automatically added for all of your newly added torrents (helps more easily connect to peers, especially in obscure torrents):
https://github.com/ngosang/trackerslist

- Look into running a node for I2P (anonymous private network within the global internet):
Requirements: Mostly bandwidth, more info: https://geti2p.net/en/faq
https://geti2p.net/

- Look into running Tor/Freenet/IPFS nodes.

- "A self-hosted BitTorrent indexer, DHT crawler, content classifier and torrent search engine with web UI"
https://github.com/bitmagnet-io/bitmagnet

- "ArchiveBox is a powerful, self-hosted internet archiving solution to collect, save, and view websites offline"
https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox

- Look into donating your PC resources to be used more intensively in projects:
BOINC (Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing: https://boinc.berkeley.edu/projects.php
GIMPS (Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search): https://www.mersenne.org/

So click a single button and change the project?

doesnt make archiving it any less retarded

>"I dont care about someones opinion on the roblox forums"
>He says, as he posts his opinion against archiving on an anonymous forum in a thread made for archiving
Not the sharpest tool i guess

It's important because decades from now a politician could be canceled because of what they wrote on those forums as a teenager, and it can only happen by the power of archiver autism

>>100126665
Reminder archive.org blocks 4chan 8ch and KF links

>>100130443
you are an insufferable nigger
>>100130477
canceled for sending chain links or calling the game pass seller a dirty jew lol
>>
>>100130501
Thats why a decentralized solution to everything is always best, surely you are archiving those things yourself then?
