To be fair Wayback Machine is not the only option, there are at least 3 other Internet archival services besides archive.today:

1. Ghostarchive
2. Megalodon
3. Etched (warning: cryptobros)

Unfortunately their scrapers are nearly not as developed as Wayback Machine’s and archive.today’s are (Ghostarchive and Megalodon can’t bypass Anubis/Cloudflare check, for example). Ghostarchive is neat when it works because of very high-fidelity captures (even more high-fidelity than archive.today’s captures are), but only something like ~75% of everything I’ve ever archived there works. Oh, and it can also archive short (<10 min) YouTube videos with low/average bitrate.

Megalodon is pretty much useless for Wikipedia because it doesn’t work with, like, half of all online news websites.

I haven’t archived anything on Etched yet, but their premise of “archiving a web page forever on bitcoin” doesn’t seem attractive so I probably won’t use it.

This is only tangentially related to the matter at hand, but there seems to be some attack on YouTube with fully LLM-generated channels and videos “covering” this situation: https://ghostarchive.org/archive/dlQhs.

Interesting…

Zulip is good.

Here’s an archived copy.

So apparently this is a very deep rabbit hole, because now we have a third person who might own this service - Nora Puchreiner. Nora Puchreiner is… an interesting identity. Besides the links given by Jani (gyrovague.com owner) in the post, I could find her Wikipedia and Twitter accounts (both completely gone):

• https://archive.today/2024.08.22-043809/https://x.com/norapuchreiner/ (https://megalodon.jp/2026-0202-0536-35/https://archive.today:443/2024.08.22-043809/https://x.com/norapuchreiner/ in case this snapshot “suddenly” disappears), suspended by Twitter for unknown reasons.
• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Renamed_user_ghsfrdDFG678mFG7903145lk (renamed; was “User:Nora Puchreiner”), suspended by Wikimedia Foundation’s Trust & Safety team for “impersonation” (though I have no idea who she could impersonate, because all accounts under the name “Nora Puchreiner” I could find obviously belong to one person).

I also found some AI slop post on Blogspot with creepy AI-generated images, publised in June 2021 under a “nora-puchreiner” account and perhaps describing her achievements? I can’t really make sense of what’s written in it.

UPD: also some print shop. I think all of this deserves a YouTube video by an internet oddity enjoyer…

Sounds like DNS issues

DNS issues are client-side; 503 is a server-side error.

since it’s a transparent blockchain that is being monitored by millions of people

Cryptocurrency tumblers exist for a reason. Though I agree that using Monero (or just keepig this money as it is) for such purposes would be better.

…except Epstein files are the distraction.

Here’s an XML dump of these pages: https://files.catbox.moe/3i52dy.7z.

Note that you need a local MediaWiki installation to access this dump, which is possible with XAMPP.

You should import it using php; not the web UI (Special:Import page) as it will just timeout there. This is possible with the following code:

cd (path to php in your XAMPP folder)
php "(path to importDump.php [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:ImportDump.php] maintenance script)" --conf "(path to your MediaWiki installation's LocalSettings.php)" "(path to dump)" --username-prefix=""

You also need to enable ParserFunctions extension for templates to work correctly. You can do this by adding the following line to your LocalSettings.php:

wfLoadExtension( 'ParserFunctions' );

IMPORTANT

I’ve managed to export a list of all mainspace pages on the wiki (excluding redirects): https://archive.today/2026.01.14-091514/https://paste.boywife.top/Rv9jNa?fmt=raw

And a list of all mainspace pages’ titles (excluding redirects): https://archive.today/2026.01.14-091559/https://paste.boywife.top/Cs-+tc?fmt=raw

Do what you want with them.

And you can also access all pages on the subdomain.

And the neat part is that, since the wiki. subdomain is running MediaWiki, you can export the pages on the website itself using Special:Export.

Surgeries for trans people aren’t cosmetic though.

Fucking normies…

There are people who don’t have an account/don’t log in every time they visit Lemmy.

Using RSS would be a better option for them than some extension’s filters, though.

whatsapp signal telegram

Telegram isn’t encrypted, and honestly you shouldn’t use it.[1] Whatsapp and Signal are US-based, which means that they will give up your data on the first request.

Use actually secure messengers, like Delta Chat, SimpleX, or Matrix with end-to-end encryption.

Use Invidious?

It sounds like Pale Moon is your best option.

Wikipedia, as well as encyclopedias and textbooks, are secondary sources.

No, they are tertiary sources.
