I used to use archive.today to archive news stories. However, between recently experiencing issues accessing the site and now that FBI trying to shut it down, I need to find a new way to archive.

I came across ArchiveBox, but it seems like you have to self-host and I don't have the tech skills yet to self-host an application. I also know the Internet Archive has the WayBack Machine, but never have good luck using the site.

I am hoping that I can find a site that is similar to archive.today and is not on the FBI's watchlist.

If you have a machine and/or the storage for it, you could deploy a docker container of linkwarden and do it yourself for a lot of things.

It says it's for "bookmarking" but in addition to storing the outbound link, it takes backups of pages as text, html, and PDF and can do so recursively with the pages links. Nice interface, makes stuff searchable and taggable etc.

That's really cool. I didn't know Linkwarden could do that. I'll further take a look at this, thank you!
