It looks like the internet archive is needed assistance, I just heard about this today and figured lemmy could help spread this message around

@textfiles@mastodon.archive.org Thoughts?

@Cracks_InTheWalls @CrabAndBroom I think there are tons and tons of yummy little square boxes that will take all of the letters you type into a keyboard and then put them somewhere for everybody to see.

Lol, fair. I'm still not well versed in inter-service ActivityPub stuff. I don't know if you'll see this or see any of the parent comments here on Lemmy.

Contingency plans if IA loses the appeal about the library stuff, or in general has something happen that puts IA's collections at risk of being lost. Any thoughts on the matter? Also cool if it's not something you want to talk about, I know you don't speak for the whole org.

How do we archive the archive?

@Cracks_InTheWalls I'm quite aware of the thread you are connecting me to. My answer stays the same.

Ah, understood. Thanks!
